Press Release

The Hijacking of Rachel Corrie and Kidnapping of Passengers and Crew

June 5, Kuala Lumpur: The Perdana Global Peace Organisation (PGPO) demands the unconditional and immediate release of all peace activists, humanitarian aid workers and crew members aboard the Rachel Corrie that was illegally seized and forcibly towed at gunpoint to Ashdod by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF).

The Malaysian delegation consists of Member of Parliament, Nizar Zakaria, PGPO members Shamsul Akmar, Matthias Chang and Ahmad Faizal Azumu as well as two members of the press, Halim Mohamed and Jufri Judin from TV3.

They are joined on board by former United Nations Assistant Secretary General, Dennis Halliday, Nobel Prize Laureate, Mairead Maguire, Derek and Jenny Graham from the Free Gaza Movement and documentary film maker Fiona Thompson.

We call for Malaysians of all faiths and creed to pray for the safety of the kidnapped Malaysians as well as other members of the humanitarian aid flotilla.

The people of Malaysia must stand united against injustice and cruelty perpetrated by the Zionist regime against members of the peace flotilla whose only crime is to want to lift the intolerable siege and alleviate the suffering of the innocent and brave people of Gaza.

Mukhriz Mahathir
Advisor
Perdana Global Peace Organisation

Due to the hostility of the Israeli navy towards the flotilla that will deliver the humanitarian aids to the Gaza people was intercepted and detained by the Israeli TERRORIST, the whole world should unite and collect donations to be sent to the Gaza Strip more often.

Perhaps this should be done on a weekly basis or a daily basis so that the world will witness the brutality of the Israeli who will do whatever it cans to stop the humanitarian aid from being delivered to the oppressed Palestinians.

The UN should also sanction the Israel nation.
