Korean People's Action against Investment Treaties and the WTO(KoPA)/
Peoples Rally Committee
Dear Comrades,
Best wishes and warmest solidarity for your October 20 Seoul Day of
Action Against Neo-liberal Globalisation! We are sure Seoul will add its name
to the growing list of cities around the world that have rejected the plans
of the imperialist governments and their international financial institutions
-- from Prague, to Washington, to Melbourne, Prague -- and demonstrated in
powerful protests and blockades.
The Democratic Socialist Party of Australia has issued the following
call for a Global Strike Against Corporate Tyranny and a Blockade of
Stock Exchanges on May 1, 2001.
The DSP National Committee meeting October 14-15 discussed the exciting
experiences of the S11 blockade of the World Economic Forum in Melbourne, and
the S26 Prague mobilisation against the World Bank and IMF meeting, and
enthusiastically endorsed the proposal for a major action on May 1.
We'll be raising this in the S11 alliances and with all left forces in
Ausralia, and want to link up with activists all over the world to make this
May Day march on the stock exchanges a truly global day of action against the
global capitalist system that condemns the majority of the world's people to
a life of poverty and misery.
We are asking groups and individuals to sign on to this call, and build the
largest possible May 1 actions in your city. Please contact DSP national
organiser Peter Boyle if you want to add your name to
this call, which we'll continue to distribute, and keep us informed on
progress in your country.
We hope you can bring this call to the attention of the struggling
workers, farmers, the poor and oppressed in Seould on October 20.
Comradely Greetings,
John Percy
National Secretary
Democratic Socialist Party
Australia
