People in Burma are dying, crying and starving!

Cyclone Nargis wracked Burma took away at least 28,000 lives, while some aid agencies estimate the death toll is more than 100,000. Hundreds of thousands victims cannot access to clean water, food and shelters. Death tolls will be multiplied if the military regime in Burma fails to take action and barred the relief agencies from delivering aid.

The humanitarian crisis in Burma not only attribute to "natural disaster". Millions of people risk their lives to flee from Burma due to political oppression and poverty in Burma for more than four decades.

To express international solidarity, come and join a candlelight vigil on coming Saturday, a memorial to those who have deceased and still suffering in Burma.
