THE TRUTH - JUSTICE - LOVE
Do Minh Tuyen
It's a shame for Vietnam, a nation always self-confirm as a jurisdictional State ... participated in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights ... has ever signed commitment in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights ... has ever served as a non-permanent member of the Security Council of the United Nations ... and most recently was elected to a seat in the Human Rights Council of the United Nations ... but the human rights record is extremely bad ... achievement fifth-ranked in the world for detention of journalists ... who's press activities, activities for advocating for Democratic Freedom and Human Rights in Vietnam.
No other words longer be able to justify the ongoing and serious violations on human rights in Vietnam. As a member of the International Human Rights body, a powerful organ of the United Nations with the responsibility of monitoring, advocating and protecting human rights everywhere and in every country in the world. However, Vietnam seems to go against all of its commitments to the international community on human rights ... as well as quick to forget the sacred responsibility of their noble when put on coat of UN human rights. Human rights of people in his country still do not respect ... then how can we believe that Vietnam will do its responsibilities well in the oversight and protection of human rights for people in other countries in the world ...?
The UN Human Rights office is not the place to take games ... and responsibilities of the members of the Human Rights Council of the United Nations nor the pastime ...be able to act according to his will or behave arbitrarily, wrongfully. Vietnam has now become a member of the Human Rights Council of the United Nations ... therefore can not forever continue to ignore public opinion, ignoring to all of allegations on his bad human rights record before International Community. The leader of Vietnam Communist state can not continue to trample on human rights ... while wearing the shirt of UN Human Rights. Vietnam does not have many choices ... if really wanted to integrate into the international community ... really want to have a voice and its role in the international arena ... then now, the leader of this communist country must quickly review and improve his worst human rights achievements ... must quickly to stop acts of human rights abuses and disregard international law ... by true goodwill through specific actions, including the release immediately and unconditionally all political prisoners, prisoners of conscience ... currently detained illegally in Communist Vietnam prison.
