1997 no nukes asia forum

introduction & backround

THE NUCLEAR FREE PHILIPPINES COALITION will host the 5th No Nukes Asia 
Forum on September 2-5, 1997 at the university of the Philippines Diliman, Quezon 
City, Phils. The Forum will be preceded by a sustainable Energy conference with 
Asian NGOs on September 1, 1997 sponsored by the SOUTHEAST ASIA ENERGY 
CAMPAIGN OF GREENPEACE INTERNATIONAL in cooperation with NFPC.

The Forum will bring together non-governmental organizations and grassroots 
representatives from at least nine countries in Asia that are currently the recipients 
of aggressive and systematic marketing campaign by nuclear industries and agencies 
advocating for the adoption of the nuclear option for countries in Asia for its energy 
requirements.
Four years ago, the Nuclear Free Philippines coalition was part of the core group of 
national organizations from the different Asian countries who first held their meeting 
in Tokyo, Japan eventually united on the basis of their common aspiration to block 
all attempts by the nuclear industries to nuclearize Asia, and forge a common front 
to intensify their information and educational campaign in the region.
The previous No Nukes Asia Forum meetings have become effective venues to 
strengthen the host country's capacity to mount an effective anti-nuke campaign. It 
is hoped that the 1997 No Nukes Asia Forum will be able to highlight the Philippine 
anti-nukes campaign and contribute towards a stronger pressure group against 
governments and the marketing blitz of nuclear industries in Asia.
The NNAF has become an effective network of anti-nuke activists confronting the 
issues of nuclear accidents, nuclear wastes storage and transboundary shipments,
radiation and its impact on health and environment.
