Tjahjadi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Global petition re access to pharmaceuticals: AID di Afrika Selatan +;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+;+; Indonesia, and English versions Masih ingatkah anda: Say with Love, Diamond are forever? Itu iklannya De Beers, pengusaha intan dunia. Lalu, ingatkah anda dengan Nelson Mandela yang selalu berbaju batik? Itu semua dari Afrika Selatan..! Kini, pemerintah Afrika Selatan membutuhkan sokongan anda, berupa pernyataan dukungan global, agar 39 perusahaan farmasi pemilik paten obat-obatan AIDs tidak menghalangi upaya rakyat Afsel penderita HIV/AIDs guna dapat membeli obat dengan mudah dan dengan harga terjangkau. Dengan adanya paten, maka pemerintah Afrika Selatan sukar dapat melaksanakan UU Obat tahun 1997 yang mengupayakan peluang keterjangkauan dan dapat diperolehnya obat-obatan esensial bagi penderita yang berkaitan dengan HIV/AIDs. Upaya pemerintah Afsel tersebut bersambut gayung. Sebuah organisasi yang pernah memberikan bantuan bagi korban perang sipil di Ambon, maupun di NTT, Papua, Aceh, Kalimantan, Southeast Sulawesi, North-Maluku, Manado dan kepulaan Banggai, yaitu Midecins Sans Frontihres (MSF), berkampanye secara global untuk mengumpulkan penyokong dari berbagai belahan dunia guna membantu pemerintah Afrika Selatan tersebut. Semenjak 1998 hingga kini sudah tercatat sebanyak 400.000 penderita AIDs di negara itu yang mati secara dini, karena mahalnya obat-obatan yang berkaitan dengan AID milik 39 perusahaan farmasi besar. Kini DUKUNGAN ANDA dinantikan, agar 39 perusahaan farmasi raksasa itu akan menarik tanpa syarat penerapan paten obat-obatan yang terkait AIDs.

Below the petition are the names of the 39 pharmaceutical companies involved. Please read this entire email and go to the website noted below and type in your name. It will just take a moment and it may save many lives. Doctors without Frontiers is a wonderful group and the patent and pricing policies of the pharmaceutical companies are costing hundreds of thousands of lives. Thanks for your help. -- Beth Burrows The Edmonds Institute Note: Be sure to send this email to all your contacts. The petition deserves a big response. **************************************************** "http://www.msf.org/petition/" MSF Drop the Case petition Midecins Sans Frontihres (MSF) asks you to support South Africa's efforts to make essential medicines more accessible to its people by signing the global petition below by April 15. We, the undersigned, support the South African government's efforts to make essential medicines more affordable and accessible to its people through the medicines act passed in 1997. Therefore, we call on the 39 pharmaceutical companies that are blocking implementation of this legislation with a lawsuit to withdraw immediately from the case. With over four million already infected with HIV, South Africa has the highest number of people living with HIV/AIDS in the world. Very few can afford the treatment that has extended and improved the lives of people in richer countries. Since 1998, the pharmaceutical industry has blocked the medicines legislation, claiming it would infringe on their patent rights. During that period, 400,000 South Africans have died of AIDS-related causes. High prices are effectively denying medicines to poor patients, condemning them to a premature death. We call on the 39 pharmaceutical companies to withdraw immediately and unconditionally from this case. And we call on governments to support the people of South Africa by also urging the companies to drop their case. Sign the Drop the Case petition MSF will send your signature* to the 39 pharmaceutical companies and to governments to send a clear message that protecting lives should come before protecting patents. *Only your name and country of residence will be sent to companies and governments. MSF will not release your email address publicly.
