「ビルマ市民フォーラムへのメッセージ」
正義と自由への道は短いことも平坦なこともめったにありません。その道を歩んでいくにあたって、私たちは勇気と忍耐力の巨大な源泉にたよる必要があります。この険しい道程において、国籍や人種、信条にかかわりなく、人が生まれながらにして有する人権の価値を認める世界中の人々の精神的、実質的な支援は、私達を勇気付けてくれます。
1996年12月21日 アウンサンスーチー ▲もどる Message to the People's Forum on BurmaThe road to justice and freedom is seldom short or smooth. As we tread it, we have to draw on enormous resources of courage and endurance. In this arduous process we are strengthened by the moral support and practical assistance of people the world over who recognize the inherent value of human rights, regardless of nationality, race or creed.Every sign of increased awareness of the situation in Burma is a good augury for our struggle. Because our cause is just, we are confident that greater support for us. Therefore, I warmly welcome the founding of the People's Forum on Burma. The relationship between Japan and Burma is unique. The historical and economic ties between our two countries provide the people of Japan with the special opportunity to participate in international efforts to further the cause of democracy in Burma. The last eight years have shown that much can be done by those who are truly determined to prove that right is indeed might. In these difficult days, when repression of the democratic forces in Burma have reached new heights, we look to our friends the world over to demonstrate their solidarity with the people of Burma, whose only demand is that they should be treated with the respect and compassion to which all human beings should be entitled, I believe that the People's forum on Burma, founded by those who have a deep understanding of our situation and harbour genuine sympathy for us, will be able to do much to increase a concerted international effort in the interests of an early solution to the problems of our country. May I conclude by wishing the People's Forum on Burma all success in their endeavours and expressing the hope that the day will not be far off when we can together the victory of our common cause. 1996.Dec.21 Daw Aung San Suu Kyi |
