Please Help Monks!!!!!!!!!!
Reports emerging from Rangoon indicate that the temporary detentioncentres based in Yangon Institute of Technology and General Instituteof Technology (GTI) is currently detaining 500 hundred monks.
The monks are refusing to accept Sune (Alms food.....food offering given to monk
by layperson just before 12 noon as main meal of the day) from themilitary junta. The local population approached these detentioncentres to offer food and they have been turned away by theauthorities. Technically, the monks are unintentionally on hugerstrike.
We contacted the International Red Cross's (ICRC) office and UNHCR inRangoon. The UN's office refused to help and ICRC bucked theresponsibility on their head office in Geneva.

Please write or Phone to ICRC, e-mail Foreign Secretary and Prime MinisterGordon Brown. Every governments contribute funds in the running ofthe UN bodies and therefore you persuade the PM and the ForeignSecretary to pressure the UN organisations to take action on or leastask them if they provide value for money service to the worldhumanity.
Please be professional when writing to PM Gordon Brown and Secreatarty. You can thank the British Government for their efforts so on Burmaand persuade them succinctly with sound arguments. Contact details are:
