To illustrate how your letter on behalf of
Ngawang Sangdrol might help her, I will post the
text of a letter written to Amnesty International
some time ago by Julio de Pena Valdez, a trade
union leader in the Dominican Republic.

"When the first two hundred letters came,
the guards gave me back my clothes.
Then the
next two hundred letters came, and the prison
director came to see me. When the next pile of
letters arrived, the director got in touch with his
superior. The letters kept coming and coming:
three thousand of them. The President was
informed. The letters still kept arriving, and the
President called the prison and told them to let
me go... After I was released, the President
called me to his office for a man-to-man talk. he
said, 'How is it that a trade union leader like you
has so many friends all over the world?'"

Please consider being one of Ngawang Sangdrol's
friends.
