Daw Aung San Suu Kyi

Daw Aung San Suu Kyi
On 19 February 2008, nine Nobel Peace prize winners (Archbishop Desmond Tutu, The Dalai Lama, Shirin Ebadi, Adolfo Prez Esquivel, Mairead Corrigan, Rigoberta Mench, Prof. Elie Wiesel, Betty Williams and Jody Williams) released a statement calling for the rulers of Burma to "create the necessary conditions for a genuine dialogue with Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and all concerned parties and ethnic groups in order to achieve an inclusive national reconciliation with the direct support of the United Nations.

Two weeks from now, it will be one year of the great appeal from the respected peace prize winners supporting for the peaceful release of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi.

Its high time the Barack Obama administration comes to the rescue and let the world know the real meaning of the word CHANGE.
We are for humanactionforglobalpeace. Are you?
