The Findings In The Open Heart Letter Campaign In January 2007

Objectives for Writing This Report on Open Heart Letters

• To show that the documentation of any violation or abuse by the authorities in any situation through any means, is essential to seek justice and remedy for the victims and to stop such violations in the future. {By doing this, such records will be valid and firm evidence of who is legally responsible for such violations, identifying who violated, conspired and abetted such offences and whom were violated and to what extent the damage they suffered from.}
  

• To prove wrong the assumption held by the authorities that they are not legally or morally liable for the violations they commit against the people. {It means that: Most of the authorities who participate in human rights and other abuses against the people deceive themselves that they are safely condoned and shielded from any legal liability for such offences by their master, the government. They also justify their offences by asserting that they are only carrying out the duties of the state, accepting no personal liability for such acts. They often would like to mitigate their moral and legal liability, assuming that no one knows who committed the violations. These are their assumptions. Such assumptions must be proved wrong and so recording and documenting their violations are essential for that.}
  

• To let the world know that human rights violations, political, social and economic troubles are taking place inside Burma, and urgently needs to be addressed. {They should pay attention to these human rights and humanitarian issues inside Burma and help us stop the violations through any possible means, including the means of using the instruments such as UN Security Council, Human Right Commission and International Criminal Court.}
  

• To show our respect to the people who boldly asserted political, social and economic grievances such as abuses of power, human rights violations and injustices done by the authorities.
