Appeal for Dey Krahorm

Dear friends, family, colleagues,

I am passing this on to you in the hope that you will support a key InnerCHANGE partnership here in Cambodia.

You possibly get emails like this from time to time, and hit DELETE, today I urge you to read on.

For some of you the Dey Krahom community is a familiar name. For others you may just now be hearing of it. The attached document gives you a very good overview.

Also included in the document is a very practical and HELPFUL way for you to be part of our ministry - especially since you likely don't live in Cambodia.

I urge you to at least send an email to the suggested addresses. A follow-up hard copy letter will add power, and will only take 10 days or so to reach Cambodia by mail. A well spent postage stamp!

Making clear to those in positions of influence and power that the world is watching will do much to promote peace in this tense situation at Dey Krahom.

Peace. Chris Baker Evens.



Urgent Action Appeal:


Please keep the pressure on the Cambodian government and authorities to NOT use violence against the villagers of Dey Krahorm. Show them the International community is WATCHING!

Media pressure is helping to keep authorities away from Dey Krahorm and forcing them to renew negotiations. Now we need the international community - that's YOU - to do their part.

See Urgent Action Appeal for Dey Krahorm Community.

In Solidarity,
Lee
