Great success in the participation for the fasting dialogue

For the liberation of the Panchen Lama and Wei Jingsheng:

More than 800 fasters.

In light of the literal explosion of the number of persons who have decided to participate in the fasting dialogue of Sept. 29th - Oct. 2nd, we have decided, contrary to what was written in fax no.36, to publish a special issue of "Tibet-China Fax." A non-violent initiative, of dialogue with our Ministers of Foreign Affairs so that they will work towards the assurance of the immediate release of the Panchen Lama and Wei Jingsheng. The great success in the mobilization and ideas still has numerous days to increase force and participants. Let us not exclude that, if the preparations continue at the current pace, we will exceed one thousand fasters.

On the "second page" we publish the text of the second press release to be distributed to the media information organizations. Do not forget to keep us current on the news, TV, and radio reports, articles and interviews that will be published, so that you may inform us, before the next issue is published, of the actions you will organize in your cities.

Leaving the word to the numbers, the members of the Tibet support group, the Transnational Radical Party, ecological, cultural, anti-militarist, religious, and non-violent organizations who have decided to participate in the fasting, we cannot do other than repeat our wishes for the great, Ghandian "Oct. 2nd" for the non-violent political for the liberty of Tibet and democracy for China and invite you to "unleash" the fantasy and let as many as possible know of the reasons and objectives of our fast.
