Dear Comrades,

Kachin National Organization(KNO-UK) will be holding Demonstration for global action of ethnic Kachin, in front of the Burmese embassy and Chinese Embassy in London,UK

In this event of political tension and the deathly conflicts between the new regime Government and K.I.A, an attention is drawn upon you that the decisive stage, what seems to be as the final chapter, of the Kachin history has eventually arrived. The on-going crisis has brought us misery, hardships and to a point beyond what humans can endure. Simultaneously, hope and optimism has kept us alive that those who makes sacrifices by giving their blood, life and their loved ones, and defend with bravery and courage, would lead us to achieve what is deserved for us – "freedom". In the light of this, it is of importance to everyone, who quests for peace, freedom and justice, that we play our own parts, by dipping our toes in these critical times. Therefore, request is made upon you to participate in the upcoming peaceful public demonstrations. The core aims of the events are:

1: To make publicly known that the Thein Sein government’s military offensive against the K.I.O is strongly condemned and an immediate withdrawal of its troops is to be implemented. Start immediately genuine dialogue through UNFC.

2: To urge the Chinese government not to block the floods of refugees crossing over the borders, and to provide the refugees the needed safety zone and to press the Burmese regime to resolve the crisis in political means. Stop political and arm supporting to Burmese regime.
