Global petition re access to pharmaceuticals: AID di Afrika Selatan
+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;
Indonesia, and English versions
Masih ingatkah anda: Say with Love, Diamond are forever?
Itu iklannya De Beers, pengusaha intan dunia.
Lalu, ingatkah anda dengan Nelson Mandela yang selalu berbaju batik?
Itu semua dari Afrika Selatan..!
Kini, pemerintah Afrika Selatan membutuhkan sokongan anda, berupa
pernyataan dukungan global, agar 39 perusahaan farmasi pemilik paten
obat-obatan AIDs tidak menghalangi upaya rakyat Afsel penderita HIV/AIDs
guna dapat membeli obat dengan mudah dan dengan harga terjangkau.
Dengan adanya paten, maka pemerintah Afrika Selatan sukar dapat
melaksanakan UU Obat tahun 1997 yang mengupayakan peluang keterjangkauan
dan dapat diperolehnya obat-obatan esensial bagi penderita yang
berkaitan dengan HIV/AIDs.
Upaya pemerintah Afsel tersebut bersambut gayung. Sebuah organisasi yang
pernah memberikan bantuan bagi korban perang sipil di Ambon, maupun di
NTT, Papua, Aceh, Kalimantan, Southeast Sulawesi, North-Maluku, Manado
dan kepulaan Banggai, yaitu Midecins Sans Frontihres (MSF), berkampanye
secara global untuk mengumpulkan penyokong dari berbagai belahan dunia
guna membantu pemerintah Afrika Selatan tersebut.
Semenjak 1998 hingga kini sudah tercatat sebanyak 400.000 penderita AIDs
di negara itu yang mati secara dini, karena mahalnya obat-obatan yang
berkaitan dengan AID milik 39 perusahaan farmasi besar.
Kini DUKUNGAN ANDA dinantikan, agar 39 perusahaan farmasi raksasa itu
akan menarik tanpa syarat penerapan paten obat-obatan yang terkait AIDs.
Silahkan pergi ke (agak repot sedikit, tetapi nama anda "terjamin" tidak
diketahui orang lain)

PLEASE FORWARD TO ALL YOUR LISTS
****************************************************
Below is a copy of Midecins Sans Frontihres' global petition
calling on 39 pharmaceutical companies to immediately and
unconditionally withdraw their "patent" case against the South African
government.
Below the petition are the names of the 39 pharmaceutical
companies involved.
Please read this entire email and go to the website noted below
and type in your name. It will just take a moment and it may save many
lives. Doctors without Frontiers is a wonderful group and the patent and
pricing policies of the pharmaceutical companies are costing hundreds of
thousands of lives.
Thanks for your help.

MSF Drop the Case petition
Midecins Sans Frontihres (MSF) asks you to support South Africa's
efforts to make essential medicines more accessible to its people by
signing the global petition below by April 15.
We, the undersigned, support the South African government's
efforts to make essential medicines more affordable and accessible to
its people through the medicines act passed in 1997. Therefore, we call
on the 39 pharmaceutical companies that are blocking implementation of
this legislation with a lawsuit to withdraw immediately from the case.
With over four million already infected with HIV, South Africa has
the highest number of people living with HIV/AIDS in the world. Very few
can afford the treatment that has extended and improved the lives of
people in richer countries. Since 1998, the pharmaceutical industry has
blocked the medicines legislation, claiming it would infringe on their
patent rights. During that period, 400,000 South Africans have died of
AIDS-related causes. High prices are effectively denying medicines to
poor patients, condemning them to a premature death.
We call on the 39 pharmaceutical companies to withdraw
immediately and unconditionally from this case. And we call on
governments to support the people of South Africa by also urging the
companies to drop their case.
Sign the Drop the Case petition
MSF will send your signature* to the 39 pharmaceutical companies
and to governments to send a clear message that protecting lives should
come before protecting patents.
*Only your name and country of residence will be sent to companies
and governments. MSF will not release your email address publicly.
