Myanmar protesters wear flowers to mark Suu Kyi's birthday

YANGON – Anti-coup protesters in Myanmar donned flowers in their hair Saturday to mark the birthday of ousted civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi, who remains under house arrest and is due to face court again next week.

Among them was Myanmar Miss Universe beauty queen Thuzar Wint Lwin, who wore red flowers in her hair and wrote: "May our leader be healthy." Demonstrators in the southeastern city of Dawei made a giant pink birthday cake and took it to their street protest. The civilian death toll since the coup is estimated to be at least 870 people, according to a local monitoring group, while close to 5,000 protesters are in detention after being arrested.
