Dear Friends,

Today, we remember and pay homage to a farmer-martyr, a leader of Korean Advanced Farmers Federation, a camrade of PAKISAMA in the Asian Farmers Association for Sustainable Rural Development (AFA), who, five years ago, struck a knife in his chest while demonstrating with ten thousand other farmers in Cancun, Mexico against WTO policies whom he considered were killing farmers.

Sincerely yours,

MR. CRISPINO AGUELO, President

Soc Banzuela, National Coordinator

Pambansang Kilusan ng mga Samahang Magsasaka (PAKISAMA)
