The latter half of 2007 produced some extraordinary sights in Burma as tens of thousands of Buddhist monks protested against the actions of the government. Thousands of monks would become detained while others would succumb at the hands of military officials despite their peaceful demonstrations. Using the voice behind his popular label Undercover, Jun Takahashi designed the Free Burma T-shirt to bring awareness and reinforce his stance behind the monks of Burma. The t-shirt will be available through outlets such as Undercover shops in Taipei and Hong Kong starting January 3rd.
