Peaceful Demonstrator Andrew Koenig Missing

Dear L.A. Organizers:

Some of you knew Andrew Koenig from the Rose Parade where he put himself in front of the Beijing float to draw attention to China's relationship with the Burmese regime.  He also traveled to the Thai Burma boarder with his father and documented the trip.  Andrew is an old friend who had joined us at many Burma demonstrations.  He brought his father to speak at the Saffron Revolution event at UCLA.  

As you may have heard in the news, Andrew has been missing since February 14th.  He was in Vancouver.  I am peripherally in touch with his family, just taking it a day at a time and hoping he'll turn up soon.
