(1) Editor's Note of U.S.Campaign for Burma News:
Since the release of the report by Vaclav Havel and Desmond Tutu on why the UN Security Council should get involved in Burma two weeks ago, many key voices from inside Burma have risen to support the idea. We are posting several short statements below for you to browse. First though,
we would like to note the courage and bravery that those living under the
SPDC have shown by publicly calling for peaceful change in Burma. Even
though their calls for a non-punitive resolution by the UN Security Council should not be threatening to the SPDC in any way, the regime has in the past arrested dissident leaders for calling for change. We salute their commitment to peaceful change, even at risk to their own safety.
Additionally, we note that all of the statements below are steeped in
realism--they are not "pie-in-the-sky" or otherwise unreasonable requests.
Indeed, their calls for change in Burma are 100% consistent with the stated position of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). Like ASEAN,they ask for the release of Aung San Suu Kyi, they call for the regime to work with the United Nations, and they request a transition to democracy. By implicitly aligning their calls with ASEAN they show that they are well-balanced as well as realistic.

September 24, 2005
Rangoon, Burma
We cordially welcome the report of former Czech President Vaclav Havel and
Bishop Desmond Tutu of South Africa, calling for the UN Security Council to address Burma.
We specially thank President Havel and Bishop Desmond Tutu for making such a proposal, which has no intention to harm any country, but for the sake democratization and problem solving in Burma.
Therefore, we sincerely hope that if and when the UN Security Council
considers to addressing Burma, as suggested by these two leaders, all member states will cooperate fully without using veto powers and objections.
We, members of parliament elected from the ethnic nationality parties, also request for the implementation of tripartite dialogue among the military government, the National League for Democracy party and the ethnic nationality representatives, as suggested by UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan.

(3) Committee Representing People's Parliament (CRPP)
Special Announcement on the Report, "Threat to the Peace; A Call to the UN
Security Council to Act in Burma"; Commissioned by former Czech President
Vaclav Havel and 1984 Nobel Peace Prize Recipient Bishop Desmond Tutu of
South Africa
September 30, 2005
Members of CRPP called for a meeting on September 29, 2005 and discussed on the report, commissioned by former Czech President Vaclav Havel and 1984 Nobel Peace Prize Recipient Bishop Desmond Tutu of South Africa, calling the United Nations Security Council to act in Burma. After serious discussion,all members agreed to issue a special statement on September 30, 2005, as follows.
We believe that the report of President Havel and Bishop Tutu truthfully
review and present the real situation in Burma and constructively propose a suggestion, calling the UN Security Council to act in Burma. Furthermore,two leaders do not suggest using the economic sanctions, exercising force and pressure, but only suggest to applying the power of the UN Security Council to implement the political dialogue in Burma. This good will of two leaders correctly reflect the will of the people of Burma, including the political parties, ethnic nationality parties, democracy forces and people from all walks of life.
The State Peace and Development Council (SPDC) (formerly known as the State Law and Order Restoration Council-SLORC) continuously fail to implement the numerous resolutions and suggestion of the UN General Assembly, and as of today, it even stops cooperating with the UN's Special Envoy. Ignoring the good will of the United Nations, the SPDC is trying to create the future of the country with its one-sided formula. If the authorities continue to move forward with its one-sided path, we will see the future of country and lives of the people of Burma in dangerous situation.
At this critical juncture, we wholeheartedly appreciate former President
Havel and Bishop Tutu for making a constructive proposal, calling the UN
Security Council to act in Burma. We also urge the members of the UN
Security Council to pay serious attention on the recommendations of two
leaders for the best interest of the people of Burma, and especially request the member states to refrain from exercising the use of veto power to object it.
