Citizens of the World, freedom lovers, we wish you a happy and free 2014!
Dear fellow citizens, members, friends, and supporters:
2013 was not a good year for human rights and freedoms.
Discrimination and human rights violation was a daily routine.
The number of political prisoners was growing.
Justice is selective and judges followed orders not the law.
Government institutions were those who discriminate.
Being different was not allowed. Kitsch and muscles ruled.
People were afraid to talk.
Journalists, writers, artists, intellectuals were silenced.
Yet, this note goes out to those don’t give up the struggle for a better world.
This one goes out to those who walk high and speak up.
The time for Glasnost has come.
Speak up!
Citizens of the World, freedom lovers, we wish you a happy and free 2014!
