Concerned Burma freedom activists to rally
outside of Federal Building/Office of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in San
Francisco demanding the US Congress and the US Government to help stop the
Burma’s military regime, State Peace and Development Council (SPDC),
from committing more violent crackdowns and arbitrary arrests over peaceful
demonstrations, which were sparked by a sudden, government-imposed doubling of
diesel and gasoline prices.
We demand that the regime immediately and
unconditionally release all those arrested leaders/protesters, and all political
prisoners in Burma. We greatly fear for their safety and for the
well-being of all political prisoners in Burma.
We command all participants in those nonviolent and peaceful demonstrations for risking their lives and taking a stand against the brutal and oppressive regime. These demonstrations are also the grave and unavoidable consequence of the decades-long suffering of the Burmese people under the heel of the politically corrupt, managerially incompetent, and socially brutal military dictatorship.
Many leaders of world's institutions and nations - including United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, have condemned and/or expressed serious concerns over grave situation developed in Burma due to violent crackdowns and arrests, and has called military regime for restraint and constructive dialog.
We call upon the United Nations, the United States, the United Kingdom and the international community to do their utmost to take swift and effective measures to secure the safety and release of the student leaders and all political prisoners and to restore the fundamental citizens' rights for all the people of Burma.
