That's why freedom of thought should be guaranteed. But the more important thing is our consciousness to keep the faith for human beings. That is to say, there are many things that people must not do in the world. In prison, I heard that many Asian participants in the Asian Human Rights Charter Declaration Conference skipped one meal as a token strike for my release. It was very gratifying and encouraged me to be stronger.
Many Asian nations have some experiences in common.
We are victims of the Cold War, suffered under the colonial era, and after liberation were suppressed by military dictators. My case will give hope to other Asian people. This is just the beginning of human rights. Its protection is our people's duty. I need time to get used to the changes.
