Hi everyone.
png solidarity action has part sponsored graeme kunjil to visit
Australia in january 2002.
can you help alert interested people about the Melbourne leg of his
visit?
graeme is likely to be in Melbourne on Tuesday 15th and Wednesday 16th
January.
A public meeting will be held at 6 (for 6.30 start) on Tuesday 15th
at the New International Bookshop Trades Hall (cnr Victoria & Lygon Sts,
Carlton South - enter off Victoria St)
Graeme is the president of the uni of png environment society and has
(and still does) play a major role in the student activist movement.
graeme and other students are also working with trade unions, women's
groups, squatter groups and other anti-corporate globalisation and
anti-corruption groups.
working on issues such as:
- anti privatisation
- anti world bank / imf - structural adjustment programs
- ausaid - how to be spent
- murder of anti-corporate-globalisation protestors by govt
- working on a class action case for all injured and relatives of murdered
- anti-corruption
the other main project at the moment is the establishment of a TRUE
labour party. being put together by the png trade union congress it
joins together students, women activists, activists from the squatter
settlements and various other lefties. a great crew with good left wing
politics. png elections are mid 2002. the campaign has already begun.
this party looks to have a chance (fingers crossed!!!)
it would be great if organisations / individuals who have an interest
in the campaign could arrange to set aside some time to meet with graeme.
he is happy to speak publicly (eg in a more formal "speach" sense to a
committee of managment, a group of workers, at a rally etc) and in a
more informal meeting environment.
please contact us to "book in some time" and make the necessary
arrangements.
Your help in circulating this message, and in pasting up the attached
leaflet, would be greatly appreciated.
