An Invitation to Rose Rally Malaysia - Online Petition

To: International Press and Human Rights Groups

On February 16, 2008, HINDRAF is planning a peaceful rally in which 100 children will hand over roses to request the Prime Minister of Malaysia to release five (5) detainees of the HINDRAF, who are currently under Internal Securtiy Act (A draconian law which allows for indefinite detention without trial). These five detainees had earlier voiced their concern in the ever deteriorating state of the Indian minority in Malaysia and in a broader sense to provide equal platform for all Malaysians for the enhancement of the society.

The previous rally, held on the 25th November 2007 by Hindraf, saw 30,000 marginalised Indians taking onto the streets holding nothing but Mahatma Gandhi's pictures, was deemed non-peaceful by the government and was fired with tear gas and chemical laced water.

We invite foreign press/media and international human rights groups to Malaysia to witness the rally in person. The rally is also being held simultaneously in the following venues:
