Quotable
"The United Nations should establish this commission without delay as a vital first step towards justice for the many victims of serious abuses in Burma. Failing to act on the Rapporteur’s recommendation for accountability in Burma will only embolden rights abusers and further postpone long-overdue justice."
- Kenneth Roth, (HRW executive director)
