In Support to the Nepal Peoples freedom from King Gyanendra
Press Conference
Peace Park, Seoul, 2006 February 1st.
In Support to the Nepal Peoples freedom from King Gyanendra
Restoration of democracy against oppression of common people
Place : Peace Park, KwangwhaMun, Seoul
Date : 2006 February 1st. Am 11
Nepal is a beautiful country in South Asia with Himalayas as its crown which is now in crisis. It is situated between China and India as an independent nation. But the crisis started in 2001 with the murder of 10 members of the royal family and King Gyanendra declaring himself as an autocrat. People agitated against this autocratic regime and demanded for!
social and democratic government with peace and justice. But they are labeled as Maoists and communists. The Asian migrant communities and like minded people in South Korea feel are pained because of this democratic disaster in one of the important nations like Nepal.
Exactly one year ago on the 1st of February 2005, the King abolished the people's parliament, banned all political parties in the country and declared an emergency. So far about 200 leaders of democratic movements, students unions, political parties and labor unions are arrested including the GEFONT leaders. The telecommunications have been cut off. Many journalists are arrested and the freedom of press is highly curbed. The CPMCC which is the coalition of 7 parties in Nepal initiated their demonstrations in Katmandu and many other places in Nepal on 19th January demanding restoration of democracy in the country. On 21st many people launched demonstrations but police resisted them with gas and water. People pelted stones and used sticks in the fight with the police and about fifty people were seriously injured and over 300 people were arrested and many hospitalized. On the same day in the fight between police and rebels 23 people were killed.
The Monarchy blames the demonstrators as the communists and Maoists while the demonstrators make slogans only for the exit of King and restoration of democracy. King Gyanendra is trying to escape the present critical situation by saying that the process of election will be started from February 8th and the parliament will be established by 2008. But the democratic groups have little faith in this statement
In this Press Conference we want to inform that many more will join in demonstrations against the monarchy and continue our fight inspite of many more deaths. The world nations feel that the royal family keeping total power for one full year with the help of military is a great threat for the future of democratic values in the country.
Now, the Global Peace Movement of Asia, CAW, APWSL and Asia Forum for Human Rights and Development have joined in solidarity with the labor and citizen of Nepal to expose the deprivation of democracy and oppression of the King. We call for a wide circle of demonstration in front of Nepal Embassies in each country. We declare the 1st of February as "dark day". All journalists and the University professors in Nepal call for the day of "put down pen".
Having the similar history of oppression by the military regime and a big war and Kwangju genocide, we the South Koreans want to expose the crisis situation and support the democracy with peace and justice in Nepal. We join the international community of peace and Human rights and expect to make a global voice while many democratic movements of Asia make an independent voice against this crisis.
On February 1st 2006 at 11 am, we meet in front of the government building around Peace Park in Kwanghamun for the press conference followed by submitting a memorandum to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade. The Nepalese living in Korea will join with the Korean Democratic and Peace and Human Rights group to formulate an !
action plan
We believe and demand with one voice that the peace and beauty of Nepal is restored soon with its traditional history as an important social and democratic country in Asia.
Our demands and action plan -
Extending all support to Nepalese for restoration of democracy by expelling the bad king .
Early establishment of democratically elected government.
The peace loving movements all over the world particularly in Asian countries start in all possible styles to make a common fight against the cause of Nepal.
We send our representatives to the international gatherings in Nepal to mark our solidarity and sustenance of our struggles until we achieve our goals.
The representatives of all groups extend solidarity for peace in Nepal with many slogans, press conferences, demonstrations and so on.
We also demand the government of Korea and the Indian Embassy in South Korea to establish a Desk to represent Nepal citizen in Korea.
