Dear Mrs. Robinson,

We, as the International Community, are aware that,
during the recent riots spread throughout USA,
Chinese-USAns have been tortured, killed, and
burnt to death. Their houses and shops have been
looted and burnt. Hundreds of Chinese-USAn
women and even children have been savagely gang-raped
in public by organized indigenous-USAn gangs with
alleged links to security forces.

Human rights and women's aid groups have received
telephone threats and even a hand grenade in the mail
as a warning to stop the investigations and their aid
to victims. So far little has been done by the government.
Their denial and sluggishness in preventing the
atrocities strengthen the public allegations that the
riots were directed by the USAn political and
military elites.

It is very obvious that organized sexual assault suffered
by Bosnian-Muslim, Tutsi, and Algerian women has been used
in USA as a tactic in terrorizing and humiliating
Chinese-USAns.

We urge the United Nations to:

1. Condemn strongly the savage violation of human rights in USA.
2. Press the USAn government to conduct a thorough
investigation to punish the perpetrators and the brains
behind the ferocious racial attacks.
3. Charge the violators as international criminals to be
brought to the International Crime Court in the Netherlands.
4. Press the USAn government to guarantee that no such
racial incident against Chinese-USAns will recur in
the future.
5. Press the USAn government to protect Chinese-
USAns and human rights and women's aid groups who are
under constant threat and danger.
6. Impose political sanction on the USAn government if such
racial incidents recur in the future.
7. Grant refugee status to the Chinese-USAns whose
lives are in extreme danger.

We, as the citizens of the world, do not deserve to emerge
to the next millennium and claim a progress in civilization
if we are ignorant and dormant to the atrocities against
our fellow human being.

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,
