Under a half-century of dictatorship, Myanmar regularly banned dissent, imprisoned journalists and banned all forms of media. Reports without Borders ranked Burma 174th out of 178 in the 2010 Press Freedom Index. Up until 18 months ago there was no way possible to use or interact with any forms of media to bring the Gospel to Myanmar -- but AP Media and Pastors are waking up to this new horizon, pregnant with possibilities to spread message of hope through film.
The PossibilitiesFounder of AP Media Bill Snider comments,
"We just purchased a video camera and are providing the people there with microphones, lights and they will be purchasing in the next month an editing computer. A Burmese brother who will be the team leader will be with us in Manila for an intensive training period. I do appreciate prayers for that. The total investment in equipment and training for this person, at this point, will be approximately $5,200."
