U Nu epitaph



In Memoriam
U Nu, 1907-1995

It is with great sadness that we, the members of Burma Youth Volunteer 
Association (Japan), bid farewell to U Nu, one of our country's great 
patriots. U Nu died of natural causes at his home in Rangoon on February 
14. We will remember him as the Father of Burmese Democracy, who picked 
up the torch of Bogyoke Aung San following his assassination, carried it 
through the turbulent postindependence period, kept it alive in the 
darkness of dictatorship before finally passing it on to Daw Aung San Suu 
Kyi. We offer our heartfelt sympathy to U Nu's family and supporters, and 
we vow to honor his memory by continuing the struggle to restore 
democracy to our homeland.
