[BNM] [OT] Burma

[Dave Walsh]

I know the petition is not going to do much, but it is the very least we can
do.

If 1 million people signed it, it would show the government that the people
are very concerned about this, and don't forget there may be a general
election coming up soon.

Better doing a very small little bit than being apathetic ??????

Dave
