Honorable former President and Mrs. Kim Dae-jung, your excellency Lim Chae-jung, Speaker of the National Assembly, and tonight's speakers, Mr. Harn Yawnghwe, Director of the Euro-Burma Office and Mr. Bertil Lintner, renowned journalist, and distinguished guests!

Tonight's event is truly significant. We vividly remember the mass uprising which took place in Burma last September. Though we do not have a clear picture of what has happened, we understand numerous pro-democracy activists were arrested and sacrificed. The United Nations and the conscientious across the world are protesting against the Burmese military regime, and expressing their deep condolences to the people of Burma who made noble sacrifices. At this critical juncture, it is indeed significant to hold 'A Night for Democracy in Burma' in support of Burma's democratization.

Distinguished guests!

We, Koreans have also long suffered under military dictatorships. Democracy was nowhere to be found, and corruptions, violations of human rights were rampant. However, we finally achieved peaceful transition of power and democracy.  

During the process of democratization, we received strong support from so many conscientious people across the world. We are well aware how much courage and strength we could gain from such a strong support and encouragement. Korea has now become an advanced country in terms of democracy and human rights, and we can support people of other nations who are still suffering from dictatorships.  

'A Night for Democracy in Burma' has been planned and prepared with strong commitment of President Kim. He has been actively engaged in the activities for Burma's democratization and release of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi from house arrest, from the days of opposition leader, through his Presidency, and even to the days after retirement. Whenever an opportunity arose, he announced protest letters and statements denouncing the Burmese military regime, which reflected his firm belief and commitment to democracy.  

Remembering the noble spirit of the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to former President Kim Dae-jung and Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, I wish we all pray for freedom, peace and democracy in Burma.

Last but not least, I would like to extend sincere gratitude to those who did not spare their efforts in organizing and preparing today's event, including members of the NLD-LA and the Burma Action who prepared tonight's performance, and those at the Korean House for International Solidarity and the Kim Dae-jung Peace Center.
