Dear friends,
We would like to invite you to participate in our Karen tradition peace ceremony that will take place outside the Burmese Embassy in London on 12th January 2012 at 12 noon, to call on the military-backed Burmese government to stop attacking ethnic people, stop their military actions, stop human rights violation and declare nationwide ceasefire to start political dialogue with ethnic resistance groups. On this global day of action, the Karen community around the world will hold this traditional peace ceremony. By holding our traditional peace ceremony, we show that we are peace loving people and we are longing for peace. We want the negotiation between our Karen (KNU) leaders and military backed Thein Sein Government that will take place on 12 January to lead to political dialogue so that we can have genuine peace for all the Karen and other ethnic nationalities and everyone living in Burma. Time: 12:00 – 13:00 We are not doing any slogans but you are welcome to bring some placards. The placards should be: • Declare Nationwide Ceasefire Lets us come together as one, to show Thein Sein government that we are ready for peace and ask them if they are. If they are, they will end the attacks against ethnic people, they will end their military actions in the ethnic areas, they will stop human rights violations, and they will declare nationwide ceasefire and start political dialogue with ethnic armed resistance groups. Thank you and see you on Thursday at 12:00 noon |
