Dear KoPA:

We, members of the Korea Solidarity Committee and Food First, are writing to
let you know that last night for Chusok, Korean-Americans and solidarity
friends in the San Francisco Bay Area, U.S.A., held a candle-light vigil and
ceremony to honor the death of Lee Kyung Hae.

We wanted Korean farmers and people know that Lee Kyung Hae's death was not
in vain. His words, "The WTO Kills Farmers" are etched in the hearts of the
entire world who is now watching. We know that the hundreds of Korean
farmers, workers, and students who traveled continents to go protest in
Cancun went to express their outrage and to be heard. And Lee Kyung Hae has
been heard. The huge sacrifice made by him and his family to expose the truth
about WTO policies has reinvigorated the determination to wipe out the
corporate regime that starves and shames our food producers and human
dignity.

In solidarity,

Christine Ahn
