The Assistance Association for Political Prisoners (Burma) AAPP is an independent, non-profit organization that monitors the situation regarding political prisoners in Burma, including human rights violations, persecution and intimidation to both current and former political prisoners and their families. Run by former political prisoners, the office contains a small museum dedicated to Burma's political prisoners that displays the history, items smuggled out and the shocking human rights abuses endured in Burma's notorious prisons and labour camps.?

A replica prison cell on display in the museum, a model of the notorious Insein prison, portraits of Burma's political prisoners adorn the walls of the museum and the prison leg shackles.
