LETTER TO THE HON. GARETH EVANS
*******************************
January 9, 1996.
The Hon. Senator Gareth Evans
Minister for Foreign Affairs
The Parliament House
Canberra ACT 2600
Dear Senator
I should like to thank you and Mr Tim Fischer for your efforts, in
connection with Mr Fischer's visit to Burma last December, to help solve
Burma's political disputes. Enclosed with this letter are the communication
to Mr Alvaro de Soto - U.N.'s Assistant Secretary-General for Political
Affairs - and the current information regarding U.N. General Assembly 1995.
I would like to appeal you to continue your kind efforts in this matter
and make initiatives to visit Burma. For your information, I have also
enclosed the letter to the U.S. Congressman Bill Richardson to help us -
the Burmese - in this matter.
I should also say, on this occasion, that in spite of the Australia's
position in Asia being recognized as a middle-ranked-power, the Australia's
influence upon the democracy movement in Burma is greater. It is certain
that Burma will have to undergo an enormous social and political changes in
the near future. I believe Australia, with its expertise on democratic
institutions, is at the best position to help us in regards to these social
and political changes.
I thank you once again for your kind attention to this matter.
Yours respectfully and sincerely
Sd. U Ne Oo
1. Mr Tim Fischer, Coalition spokesman for Foreign Affairs.
2. Secretary, Human Rights Sub-Committee, Parliament of Australia,
Canberra.
