attending.
Official release of statement from Burma Watch International.

    Statement from Burma Watch International.

    Burma Watch International, ( a society for human rights ) in
Edmonton, Canada, would like to
    express our grave concern about the health and safety of 1991 Nobel
Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi
    who has been under unlawful restriction by the military regime.
    It is extremely regretful that a Burmese citizen is being prevented
from traveling in her own country.

    We strongly support the NLD's call for the parliament to convene by
Aug. 21th, and express our hope that dialogue
    be held between the representatives of NLD and SPDC without
preconditions.

    It is through dialogue that we can avoid confrontation and end the
heightening political strife in Burma.

 The second resolution was to commemorate the massacre of thousands of
peaceful protesters during Aug. 8th 1988 on the 10th
anniversary in front of the city hall in Edmonton. It would be 11 am
Saturday Aug. 8th.
The media would be informed and a candle-light vigil is to be held
followed by a prayer service.

Regards
Alice
