Faith and Climate Change Conference

I recently attended the Faith and Climate Change Conference in London. It was an interesting and wonderful experiece. You can read more about it, in the link posted below. However, I would like to point out there is a misquote in the article about my work with Earth Day celebrations in Malaysia. I wasn't the first to launch Earth Day celebrations in my country. There are many dedicated organizations and committed people who have been involved in these causes for many years.

I am merely a private citizen who introduced the concept to a local school and head the Earth Day celebrations for that school. It is also accurate the Earth Charter was introduced to the school and there are plans to develop it, whilst involving other organizations. It is also accurate that the Earth Charter was used in my country's group discussion in regards to Climate Change issue. My thanks to the organizers and wonderful people who support me in this work. Much appreciated and am deeply honored.

Charter for Compassion

The Charter for Compassion will be launched globally on 12 November 2009. I am on the committee for the Malaysian launch and am honored to be part of this movement. I believe in Love and the original meaning of "belief" in 17th Century which was: to love, to prize, to hold dear. I believe, support and promote the movement of creating a loving and compassionate culture. Below, are the links related to this movement and launch. Let's create this compassionate culture together, you and me. Thank you.
