The image will be projected onto a banner installed at the perimeter of Bundaran HI traffic circle in Central Jakarta from Thursday until Saturday, the embassy said in a statement released Thursday.

The projection will start at sunset.

The initiative is being launched as Suu Kyi’s trial resumes in Myanmar on Friday; United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon is scheduled to visit the country also on Friday.

“The UK Government believes it is essential that progress is made during the Secretary-General’s visit in laying the groundwork for free and fair elections in Burma in 2010,” the statement said.

“The visit will offer an opportunity for the Burmese regime to respond to the many calls for the release of all political prisoners, including Aung San Suu Kyi; and to allow the start of a genuinely inclusive political dialogue involving the opposition and minority groups.”

British chargé d’Affaires in Jakarta Matthew Rous said Myanmar’s neighbors had a duty to call loudly for Suu Kyi’s release.

“I am greatly encouraged by the fact that Indonesia’s voice is being heard so loudly and clearly. I hope the British Embassy’s initiative will help us all to keep Aung Sang Suu Kyi’s image in front of our eyes during this hugely important visit,” he said.
