Myanmar Penal Code sections and laws that need to be amended to ensure access to justice for everyone. It presents different legal issues and precedents that can serve as foundation for judicial reform aiming at judicial independence and resulting in public trust. It addresses the judges\u2019 ability to adjudicate independently under the Supreme Court and High Court formed under 1974 Constitution. In a compilation of legal articles, this book addresses specifically the questions of the access to justice in connection with matters such as contempt of court, the role of the Union Supreme Court in the interpretation of the law, the Ministry of Justice, and the jury system analyzing contempt of court law, Union judiciary law, writ law and respective rules. Its objective is to point out the weakness of the current laws and to propose options for legal reform to improve the rule of law in Myanmar.<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c6a9ad5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"c6a9ad5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"#\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Download Burmese Version<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-52c2510 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"52c2510\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-72ef8a6\" data-id=\"72ef8a6\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e046cf8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e046cf8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"201\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Legel-Reform-Book-No.1-Sayar-U-Htein-Win.jpg?fit=201%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-3116\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Legel-Reform-Book-No.1-Sayar-U-Htein-Win.jpg?w=833&amp;ssl=1 833w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Legel-Reform-Book-No.1-Sayar-U-Htein-Win.jpg?resize=201%2C300&amp;ssl=1 201w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Legel-Reform-Book-No.1-Sayar-U-Htein-Win.jpg?resize=685%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 685w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Legel-Reform-Book-No.1-Sayar-U-Htein-Win.jpg?resize=768%2C1148&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Legel-Reform-Book-No.1-Sayar-U-Htein-Win.jpg?resize=200%2C299&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Legel-Reform-Book-No.1-Sayar-U-Htein-Win.jpg?resize=400%2C598&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Legel-Reform-Book-No.1-Sayar-U-Htein-Win.jpg?resize=600%2C897&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Legel-Reform-Book-No.1-Sayar-U-Htein-Win.jpg?resize=800%2C1196&amp;ssl=1 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e70e48e\" data-id=\"e70e48e\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-709af0e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"709af0e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div data-page-id=\"NuA8dOd04oNiC7xvi9Fcu6DEnlg\" data-lark-html-role=\"root\" data-docx-has-block-data=\"false\"><div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-VTAndTEqMo95vfxRx26c7x9Lnlc\"><b>Legal Issues and Access to Justice \u2013 Book No. 1<\/b><\/div><div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Z0grdTG2HoqqNTxFiuEcDsyLnJf\"><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/div><div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Z0grdTG2HoqqNTxFiuEcDsyLnJf\"><b>2019<\/b><\/div><div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Z0grdTG2HoqqNTxFiuEcDsyLnJf\"><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/div><div class=\"ace-line ace-line old-record-id-LYTYdAnL4ohEFNxEN57curL8n3b\">This book, written by Sayar U Htein Win, former State\/Division Judge and legal advisor to the Rule of Law Center in Mandalay and to Colors Rainbow, covers Myanmar Penal Code sections and laws that need to be amended to ensure access to justice for everyone.

Due to the traditional beliefs, conservative culture and lack of knowledge about sexuality, LGBT children in Myanmar often face negative comments, pressure and rejection from their parents and relatives. This leaflet focuses on the importance of creating a safe environment for LGBT youth at home. It also provides information regarding how parents could support their LGBT children mentally and physically to prevent heartbreaking consequences.<\/div><\/div><div data-page-id=\"NuA8dOd04oNiC7xvi9Fcu6DEnlg\" data-lark-html-role=\"root\" data-docx-has-block-data=\"false\">\u00a0<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-070d7d0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"070d7d0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"#\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Download Burmese Version<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a2418c7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a2418c7\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-44badcf\" data-id=\"44badcf\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0f1971d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0f1971d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"188\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Story-Cover.jpg?fit=188%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-3162\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Story-Cover.jpg?w=1600&amp;ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Story-Cover.jpg?resize=188%2C300&amp;ssl=1 188w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Story-Cover.jpg?resize=643%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 643w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Story-Cover.jpg?resize=768%2C1224&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Story-Cover.jpg?resize=964%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 964w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Story-Cover.jpg?resize=1285%2C2048&amp;ssl=1 1285w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Story-Cover.jpg?resize=200%2C319&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Story-Cover.jpg?resize=400%2C638&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Story-Cover.jpg?resize=600%2C956&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Story-Cover.jpg?resize=800%2C1275&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Story-Cover.jpg?resize=1200%2C1913&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 188px) 100vw, 188px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-22a814d\" data-id=\"22a814d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bb4d0b2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bb4d0b2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b style=\"font-style: inherit;\">Story Competition 2019<\/b><\/p><div data-page-id=\"NuA8dOd04oNiC7xvi9Fcu6DEnlg\" data-lark-html-role=\"root\" data-docx-has-block-data=\"false\"><div><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/div><div><b>2019<\/b><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div>This third edition of the LGBT Literature Competition 2019 is a compilation of essays published at the end of 2019.

This booklet is mostly distributed at SOGIE training in which Colors Rainbow implements every three months in different towns all over the country. The contents include LGBT terms, common questions about LGBT, a brief history of IDAHOT, TDoR and LGBT symbols.<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-733a7e5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"733a7e5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"#\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Download Burmese Version<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-9490b94 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"9490b94\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d0011c0\" data-id=\"d0011c0\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-93eebba elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"93eebba\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"209\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Strategies-and-Guidelines-to-promote-the-rights-of-LGBTs-in-Myanmar-English.jpg?fit=209%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-2918\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Strategies-and-Guidelines-to-promote-the-rights-of-LGBTs-in-Myanmar-English.jpg?w=1000&amp;ssl=1 1000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Strategies-and-Guidelines-to-promote-the-rights-of-LGBTs-in-Myanmar-English.jpg?resize=209%2C300&amp;ssl=1 209w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Strategies-and-Guidelines-to-promote-the-rights-of-LGBTs-in-Myanmar-English.jpg?resize=714%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 714w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Strategies-and-Guidelines-to-promote-the-rights-of-LGBTs-in-Myanmar-English.jpg?resize=768%2C1101&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Strategies-and-Guidelines-to-promote-the-rights-of-LGBTs-in-Myanmar-English.jpg?resize=200%2C287&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Strategies-and-Guidelines-to-promote-the-rights-of-LGBTs-in-Myanmar-English.jpg?resize=400%2C574&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Strategies-and-Guidelines-to-promote-the-rights-of-LGBTs-in-Myanmar-English.jpg?resize=600%2C860&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.colorsrainbow.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Strategies-and-Guidelines-to-promote-the-rights-of-LGBTs-in-Myanmar-English.jpg?resize=800%2C1147&amp;ssl=1 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 209px) 100vw, 209px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5fa60e3\" data-id=\"5fa60e3\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-29c78fc elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"29c78fc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><b>Strategies and Guidelines to promote the rights of LGBTs in Myanmar<\/b><\/span><\/p><div data-page-id=\"NuA8dOd04oNiC7xvi9Fcu6DEnlg\" data-lark-html-role=\"root\" data-docx-has-block-data=\"false\"><div><b>2017<\/b><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div>Myanmar is a country known for its serious human rights violations where its people have very limited access to protection of law and suitable legal channels as a recourse for their grievances.
