FROM THE UN SECRETARY-GENERAL

World Telecommunication and Information Society Day
17 May 2016

Message of UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon

The international community is now mobilized around the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which recognizes the great potential of information and communication technology (ICT) to accelerate human progress, bridge the digital divide and advance knowledge. The 17 Sustainable Development Goals specifically call for employing ICTs to realize the overall vision of a life of dignity for all people.
These technologies provide smart solutions to address climate change, hunger, poverty and other global challenges. They are key instruments for providing mobile health care and access to education, empowering women, improving efficiencies in industrial and agricultural production, and safeguarding the environment.
Start-ups and technology hubs in the ICT sector are the drivers of innovative and practical solutions that can contribute to inclusive growth. Small to medium-sized enterprises make up more than 90 per cent of all businesses worldwide, and represent a path out of poverty for many developing countries.
Young people are especially fluent in the use of ICTs. Leaders should invest in young innovators, who are part of the largest generation of youth in history. As entrepreneurs, they can pioneer transformative technology, create jobs and benefit whole economies.
I call upon governments, businesses and civil society leaders to develop new technologies that have a lasting social impact. ICTs can create more inclusive societies for persons with disabilities. They can help children to learn and the elderly to stay active. And ICTs can connect people around the world in common cause.
On this World Telecommunication and Information Society Day, let us resolve to harness the power of technology to create a better future for all.

FROM THE UN SECRETARY-GENERAL
DAY OF VESAK  
20 May 2016

Message of UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon

At this time of mass population movements, violent conflicts, atrocious human rights abuses and hateful rhetoric aimed at dividing communities, the sacred commemoration of the Day of Vesak offers an invaluable opportunity to reflect on how the teachings of Buddhism can help the international community tackle pressing challenges.
The fundamental equality of all people, the imperative to seek justice, and the interdependence of life and the environment are more than abstract concepts for scholars to debate; they are living guidelines for Buddhists and others navigating the path to a better future.
One Sutra tells the story of Srimala, a woman who pledged to help all those suffering from injustice, illness, poverty or disaster. This spirit of solidarity can animate our global efforts to realize the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, carry out the Paris Agreement on climate change, and promote human rights while advancing human dignity worldwide.
The actions of Srimala also illustrate the primary role that women can play in advocating for peace, justice and human rights. Gender equality and the empowerment of women remain urgent priorities that will drive progress across the international agenda.
In just a few weeks, the United Nations will convene the first-ever World Humanitarian Summit, where leaders will join activists and other partners to address the needs of millions of vulnerable people in crisis.  Buddhists and individuals of all faiths who are concerned about the future of humanity can help advance the Summit’s aims to uphold humanitarian law, protect civilians in conflict, and improve the global response to emergencies.
On this Day of Vesak, let us pledge to reach out to bridge differences, foster a sense of belonging, and show compassion on a global scale for the sake of our common future.

19-year-old Aditya was killed for overtaking a car. He was shot by the son of a powerful politician. Sign my petition asking for a fast track court to ensure that justice is served.

Dear Naresh,Aditya was killed for overtaking a car that belonged to the son of a powerful politician!
He was shot in the head. Aditya was just a 19-year-old school student.My heart aches for Aditya’s mother who lost her son just a day before Mother’s Day.
The police have arrested the main accused Rocky Yadav, son of politician Manorama Devi. But we have seen many times that the powerful take advantage of the system and get away.
I don’t want that to happen. Join me in askingthe Chief Minister of Bihar, Nitish Kumar to set up a fast track court within a fixed time frame for this case.
An example needs to be set so that powerful people like Rocky Yadav start fearing the law.
64,000 people have already shown their support. I want to reach 1 lakh signatures. If you sign my petition, we can let the CM know that the life of a common man like Aditya holds value and we will not rest till Aditya gets justice.
Thank you for taking action,
Nishant Kumar

Naresh, tell us what you think?

Naresh —
It seems like Donald Trump hurls a different vicious insult or dangerous policy proposal every day — here on Team Hillary, it’s our job to make sure the American people don’t forget any of what he stands for, and we need your help.
Maybe you’re worried about a relative being deported, or maybe you’re a woman contemplating what life would look like if you weren’t allowed to make your own health care decisions. Maybe you’re a minimum wage worker thinking about how your life would change with a president who thinks wages are too high.
Trump is going to try to turn this campaign into a reality show media circus — but we’re not going to let anyone forget that this election is about families like yours.Will you take a minute to share your story and tell us why this election matters to you?

Thanks so much — we really appreciate your help.
Robby

Duterte proposes another UN August 21, 2016 Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte railed against the United Nations today after it called for an end to the wave of killings unleashed by his war on drugs, saying he might leave the organisation. Duterte also said the Philippines will invite China and African nations to form another global organisation in place of United Nations, as world body is not doing enough to address hunger and terrorism. There appears to be human rights working for terrorist and mafia in third world to keep their states in dire state. Two UN human rights experts last week urged Manila to stop the extra-judicial executions and killings that have escalated since Duterte won the Presidency. About 900 suspected drug traffickers have been killed since he came to power after winning the election on May 9.
