The opposition in Myanmar continues to organise street protests, despite the risks. Proper planning can make the difference between life – and imprisonment, torture or death. In Doh Athan this week, we hear stories about how protests have changed since the coup and why protestors take risks.

This story is by a Doh Athan journalist and is available in English and Burmese.
