Candle Light for Justice

Dear Compatriots,
I invite all our colleagues to try to assemble together in some ways, light up a candle together, take a picture and send it to us that we are in this together because justice can no longer be bought, nor intimidated. We want justice return and we want our justice system restructured independently.
As you know that on Friday July 24, 2009 our Nobel Prize Nominee and elected Member of Parliament, Mrs Mu Sochua, will be on trial, alone without any legal counsel by her side due to political pressure and intimidation from the government of Cambodia.
No lawyer in the entire country has any will nor courage to defend Mrs Mu for fear of losing their job. He or she can be politically prosecuted since there is now a realization that Cambodian justice system is completely controlled by the executive branch.
Therefore, on Wednesday 6:00pm, July 22, 2009 my colleagues and I here in Montreal will be at the Temple, Thommakaram at Riviere des Prairie to held a "Candle Light for Justice". It's a gesture of support for justice, for Mrs. Mu and all the defenseless people in Cambodia, including those who have their rights violated, put in jail for daring to speak the truth.
I invite all our colleagues to try to assemble together in some ways, light up a candle together, take a picture and send it to us that we are in this together because justice can no longer be bought, nor intimidated. We want justice return and we want our justice system restructured independently.
We invite you for a brief moment of your time to help enlighten the world, to send a clear message to the country, by lighting up a "Candle Light for Justice". Please come and support Mrs. Mu as she will be standing alone among the many injustices on July 24, 2009.
Please be there. We need you, Mrs. Mu needs you, our country and our people need you. Justice for All.

Ma
