Mr. Speaker, I have the honour to present a petition on behalf of ethnic Chinese people from Indonesia.
The petition makes reference to human rights abuses and describes in some detail how 1,300 people were killed. It states that these human rights abuses cannot continue.
The petitioners ask that Canada, as a leader in human rights areas, ethically and morally, not stand by and do nothing. They call upon parliament to appeal to President Habibie of Indonesia to protect the human rights of ethnic Chinese.
