Re: Request to join us at Solidarity Meet
with Daw Aung San Suu Kyi of Burma
Dear Sir/Madam,
The Burmese military junta arranged an armed crowd of criminals
released from prison to attack Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and NLD members
on the 30th of May. The planned crackdown and premeditated murder
of democracy activists in Northern Burma has plunged Burma yet deeper
into crisis. The hope for peaceful transition and a process of dialogue
has been severely damaged by these lawlessness and irresponsible
acts of the regime. Daw Aung San Suu Kyi is once again being detained
at a secret location in Rangoon by the regime, which has shut down
the offices of the NLD, universities and colleges nationwide.
The coming June 19th is the 58th birthday of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi
who is a Nobel Peace Laureate and Recipient of Jawaharlal Nehru
Award for International Understanding. Burmese democracy activists
around the world are calling for a global campaign for her release.
We, Burmese democratic forces in India are organizing a “Solidarity
Meet for Nobel Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi” on 18th June.
The program will be held at India International Centre in New Delhi.
As a person who has supported Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and Burma democracy
movement for a long time, we would like to request you to participate
in the meeting as an act of solidarity. Your presence at the meeting
will definitely strengthen the support of the people of India towards
democratic aspirations of Burmese people.
We have also invited leaders of political parties, intellectuals,
human rights activists and representatives of civil society in India
to join us in the meeting. Details of the program:
Date: June 18, 2003 (Wednesday)
Venue: India International Center (Annex) conference
room No. 3
Timing: From 3:00pm to 5:00pm
We hope that you will join us as a gesture of solidarity with the
Burmese people.
Sincerely,
Thin Thin Aung
