[uneoo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

POSTED 14-9-99; 6:00am

On the 9th of September, myself and Salai, representing Burma Action
Group in South Australia, had attended Melbourne 9999 Action Launch
ceremony in front of Victorian State Parliament House. The 9999 Action
in Melbourne also included the 72-hours hunger strike in front of the
parliament house and we congratulate those participated in that hunger
strike-- it is a tremendous job. The 9999 Action Launch in Melbourne
appears to focus principally on the theme of Australian Federal and
State Governments to recognise CRPP. We have the pleasure of
distributing the 'CRPP Briefings' notes prepared by ALTSEAN group in BKK
to the rally attenders. We also read out following statement by Burma
Action Group(SA).-- Regards, U Ne Oo.
