Intelligence
Squared have announced that their first live-streaming debate over
the weekend was a notable success. Intelligence Squared became the
seventh most discussed topic on Twitter, with over 10,000 online viewers.
They are delighted to announce that their next two debates will also be
available to watch live on the i...nternet.
Intelligence
Squared is excited to announce that the debate “It is time to lift
sanctions against Burma”, will be live-streamed to the world for
free at 6:45PM GMT on December 2, 2009 at www.intelligencesquared.com/live.
The
panelists will be debating the success of economic sanctions against the Burmese
military junta. The detained pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi and the NLD
(National League for Democracy) are said to be in favour of maintaining
international sanctions, although many argue the existing ones have had no
effect on the government’s anti-democratic stance, and have merely
inflicted more unnecessary suffering on the Burmese people.
The
highly distinguished panel includes Thant Myint-U (Former head of policy
planning in the UN's Department of Political Affairs), Mark Farmaner
(Director of Burma Campaign), Derek Tonkin (Former British ambassador to
both Vietnam and Thailand, and current chairman of Network Myanmar) and
Brad Adams (Executive Director of Human Rights Watch's Asia Division).
