A PETITION:We're doing everything we can to make this petition heard--newspaper ads in Asia, radio broadcasts to the Burmese people, and deliveries to key officials. We're shooting for a million petition signatures by Saturday -- a massive show of support for the Burmese monks. Can you sign it, and then forward this email to twenty friends?

China is the key. Despite publicly calling for peaceful negotiations in Burma, China continues to provide economic and military support to Burma's dictatorship. China's actions must match its words -- and so, this morning, we launched an international advertising campaign targeting China, with a powerful full-page ad in the Financial Times. You can see the ad on the petition page. Next up, we're helping to organize protest rallies around the world; go to the petition page and scroll down to see the details. And most of all, we are working to grow the petition to a size that can't be ignored. Burma petition has grown by 2500 signatures an hour since the crisis began--can you help push it to one million now?

People power, on the streets of Burma and around the world, can triumph over tyranny. Our strength is in our numbers. Spread the word!

With hope and determination,

Ricken, Paul, Ben, Graziela, Pascal, Galit and the whole Avaaz team.
