WE believe that the combination of the respect deserved 
by Nobel Prize Winner Daw Aung San Suu Kyi does not make 
a good interface of representation with those receiving 
"freedom" awards in Dublin . In fact this award may be a 
sinister misrepresentation of industrial matters in young 
peoples minds. 

We have already made Mihra's  views on this subject  very clear. 
And as this applies most of all to our internal mandate, which is 
being almost ignored to work on the BO campaign. For Mihra 
creative people this is a doubly unworthy situation, and one of 
gross double standards in terms of the interface between human 
rights and property rights.. 

A combination of liberation politics and 93.8% monopoly aligned 
cartel featured artists?  No way..Jose. Even in Dublin.
Recently in the UK we had a front page urging readers to write 
to Rach. This was sponsored in part by Brain May of Queen. 
Queen worked, to the tune of £4,000,000 within a week, in 
Sun City for the apartheid system. So, maybe people out there 
should say to themselves. "Maybe we should seek the true way 
that the music industry does its business"? 

Try seeking through the Mihra Industrial pages for the many
reasons why the above should be affirmed, time and time again.

Founded during UN50. Mihra's roots are in music and anti-racism and 
was first in line in calling for a sports boycott of Burma for the Sydney
2000 Olympic Games. Mihra also advances protection of creators rights 
in an anti-cultural market, currently 93.8% monopolised by the recording  
/ publishing Grand Cartel.
