VIET-NAM - DEATH PENALTY : Blogger and activist faces possible death penalty

VIET-NAM - DEATH PENALTY

Blogger and activist faces possible death penalty

Reporters Without Borders is deeply concerned about French-educated blogger and pro-democracy activist Nguyen Tien Trung, now facing a possible death penalty under article 89 of the criminal code after the charges against him were changed to "trying to overthrow the people's government." Arrested more than five months ago, he is due to be tried at the end of the month.
"We call for Nguyen Tien Trung's immediate and unconditional release as the charges against him are entirely fabricated," Reporters Without Borders said. "Trung is a pacifist who has never endangered the Vietnamese state. He just exercised his right to free expression, a right he learned to use in France."
The press freedom organisation added: "Trung is a scapegoat. The authorities want to make an example of him in order to intimidate other Vietnamese students who want to press for more freedom when they return home after studying abroad."
Trung's family told Reporters Without Borders that his father was allowed to visit him on 10 December for the second time since his arrest. The authorities are reportedly now going to allow his family to visit him once a month. Trung seemed to be in good physical and psychological condition and did his best to reassure his father. He asked his father to bring him books, especially economics and French books. The authorities are considering the request.
A former student at the National Institute for Applied Sciences (INSA) in the northern French city of Rennes, where he got a masters in information technology, Trung was arrested at his parents' home in Ho Chi Minh City on 7 July on a charge of propaganda against the state under article 88 of the criminal code. A government TV station broadcast taped footage in which he made a confession.
He seems to have been arrested because of the pro-democracy views he posted online and, in particular, an open letter to the government about education policies.
The Trung support committee website posted an opinion piece by Philippe Echart, who was one of Trung's teachers at the INSA.
"It is strange for a teacher to realise that one his students, which whom he had a few talks and to whom he paid special attention because he was a foreigner, is now being in prison at the other end of the world, in his own country, on serious charges," Echard writes. "And why is he in prison? For expressing his views freely. For criticising university education in Vietnam. For calling for more freedoms and more democracy, as many other intellectuals in his country have."
The support committee is calling for a determined campaign on his behalf. "The worst that could happen to Trung is that people gradually forget him," the committee's appeal says. Trung's friends and family have relaunched the campaign for his release. Sign a petition at the http://freetrung.tk/ website.

VIET-NAM - PEINE DE MORT

Un blogueur et militant démocrate formé en France risque la peine de mort

Reporters sans frontières a exprimé sa vive inquiétude au sujet du blogueur et militant démocrate Nguyen Tien Trung, détenu depuis plus de cinq mois au Viêt-nam et qui encourt désormais la peine de mort. Les charges retenues contre lui ont été requalifiées, il est désormais accusé de "tentative de renversement du régime du peuple" en vertu de l'article 79 du code penal vietnamien, une accusation passible de la peine capitale. Son procès devrait se tenir d'ici à la fin du mois.
"Nous demandons la libération immédiate et inconditionnelle de Nguyen Tien Trung. Les accusations proférées à son encontre sont fabriquées de toutes pièces. Nguyen Tien Trung est un pacifiste qui n'a jamais mis en danger l'Etat vietnamien. Il n'a fait qu'exercer son droit à s'exprimer librement, un droit qu'il a appris à exercer ici en France", a déclaré l'organisation. "Nguyen Tien Trung est un bouc émissaire. Les autorités souhaitent faire de lui un exemple et intimider les étudiants vietnamiens qui, après avoir étudié à l'étranger, souhaitent rentrer chez eux et demander plus de liberté."
D'après la famille du jeune militant des droits de l'homme, contactée par Reporters sans frontières, son père a pu lui rendre visite, le 10 décembre dernier, pour la deuxième fois depuis le début de sa détention. Les autorités permettraient désormais à ses proches de le voir une fois par mois. Trung avait l'air en bonne santé physique et psychologique et a tout fait pour rassurer son père. Il a demandé qu'on lui apporte des livres, notamment d'économie et de français. Une demande actuellement examinée par le régime.
Diplômé de l'école d'ingénieurs INSA de Rennes (France), Nguyen Tien Trung avait été arrêté au domicile de ses parents à Ho Chi Minh-Ville, le 7 juillet 2009, pour "propagande contre l'Etat", en vertu de l'article 88 du code pénal. Une télévision gouvernementale a diffusé des aveux enregistrés du jeune homme. Les autorités semblent lui reprocher ses écrits, notamment une lettre au gouvernement sur la politique d'éducation et ses prises de position prodémocratiques.
Son comité de soutien a publié sur son site une tribune de Philippe Echard, qui fut son professeur à l'INSA : "Cela fait tout drôle quand on est enseignant d'imaginer que l'étudiant que l'on a eu en cours, avec lequel on a eu quelques discussions et sûrement une attention particulière parce qu'il est étranger, est aujourd'hui en prison, à l'autre bout du monde, dans son propre pays, et sous le coup d'accusations graves. (…) Et pourquoi est-il en prison ? Pour s'être exprimé librement. Pour avoir critiqué l'enseignement universitaire du Vietnam. Pour avoir appelé, comme de nombreux autres intellectuels de son pays, à plus de libertés, à plus de démocratie."
Le comité appelle à la mobilisation : "Le pire qui puisse arriver à Trung, c'est qu'on l'oublie petit à petit". Les amis et les proches de Nguyen Tien Trung ont relancé les actions pour obtenir sa libération. Signez la pétition sur http://freetrung.tk/

Community radios demand an end to gender violence!

Montreal, December 11th, 2009. From November 25 to December 10th, the
Women's International Network of the World Association of Community Radio
Broadcasters (AMARC-WIN) actively participated in the 16 days of activism
against gender violence with an Internet campaign to honor groups and
individuals who have committed to bringing Violence against women (VAW) to
the forefront of global attention, to encouraging everyone in their
various capacities to take action to end VAW, and to demanding
accountability for all of the promises made to eliminate VAW. The audio
documents and other information are available on
http://www.amarc.org/16days.

This years’ international theme of the campaign was «Commit - Act -
Demand: We CAN End Violence against Women! ».
The 16 days campaign started on November 25th with the International Day
for the Elimination of Violence Against Women; it continued on November
29th with the International Women’s Human Rights Defenders Day; followed
by December 1: World AIDS Day; December 6: the 20th Commemoration day of
the Montreal (Canada) Massacre in 1989 and ended on December 10th with the
International Human rights Day.

Community radio producers from Asia-Pacific, Middle East, Africa, Europe,
North America and Latin America and the Caribbean broadcast programs these
16 days campaign to support the effort of women and men working to put an
end to gender violence. The audio files of some of the participating
community radios and production groups in the 16 Days AMARC-WIN are
available at www.amarc.org/16jours. The programs featured include
documentaries, interviews, debates, poetry, music and much more. This
multilingual broadcast campaign mobilizes community radios around a global
issue and encourages them to use new communication technologies such as
the Internet to extend the reach of their voices.

The AMARC Women's International Network is a large assembly of women
communicators working to ensure women's right to communicate through and
within the community radio movement. AMARC is an international
non-governmental organization serving the community radio movement, and

technologies - have affected social, cultural, political and economic
development.
The call for proposals will be run in two stages.

1. Call for concept notes (submission deadline: January 8, 2010). All
interested applicants are required to submit a concept note outlining a
synopsis of a proposed research idea.
2. Call for full proposals. Based on the assessment of the concept
notes, shortlisted applicants will be invited to submit a full proposal
in early 2010.
There are three levels of targeted funding, each with different
eligibility criteria:

* A set of small seed grants at CAD$7,500 each will be awarded to
promising graduate students, small organizations and individual researchers.
* Grants of CAD$25,000 open to researchers affiliated with an
established organization.
* Grants of up to CAD$100,000 open only to researchers affiliated
with an established organization.
Again, for full details on the research competition, the call for
concept notes and the submission process, please visit the project

Background:

*Internews® Network* is an international non-profit organization working to
improve access to information for people around the world by fostering
independent media and promoting open communications policies. Internews'

spur media coverage of human rights and reform of media and Internet law and
policy.

- Engage in continued mentorship of trainees following workshops.
- Develop human rights reporting toolkit for use by journalists and human
rights organizations, highlighting best practices and featuring practical
resources, monitoring and assessment tools, advocacy materials, interview
guidelines and training modules.
- Participate in jury for trainee production grant competition.
- Conduct appropriate monitoring and evaluation of project, including
collecting success stories, archiving journalists' work, and documenting
trainings and lessons learned.
- Work with regional staff to indentify local partners for subgrants.
- Conduct necessary research and assessments and pre-workshop preparation
about each country and the human rights/journalism context.
- Prepare and assemble material for quarterly reports, in compliance with
donor and Project Director guidelines.

An international organisation present at the Bella Center to promote the
inclusion of gender issues into the climate policies. By Sandra Lori
Petersen

Climate Catastrophe
Pakistan is one of those countries, which make comparatively insignificant
contribution to the causes of climate change but is extremely vulnerable to
its effects. From coastal populations in the south to those relying on
snow-fed rivers for agriculture in the north have become vulnerable
communities.
By: Panos Radio South Asia

The World Association of Community Radio Broadcasters, AMARC brings together
a network of more than 4,000 community radios, Federations and community
media stakeholders in more than 15 countries. The main global impact of
AMARC since its creation in 1983 has been to accompany and support the
establishment of a world wide community radio sector that has democratized
the media sector.
