Dear Friends,

Fifth Annual Peoples Global Action Gathering

PGA - People's Global Action - started in 1998, it has been a tool and a
diffuse structure coordinating groups and people sharing common struggles
and practices, in accordance with various anticapitalist and
anti-authoritarian principles (see the hallmarks). PGA initiated the
Intercontinental caravan in 1999, as well as international action days of
actions against the G8, the WTO, the World Bank, the IMF... In Seattle,
Genoa, Prague, and in a number of less popular events, PGA was a driving
force behind numerous actions and reflections. At the convergence of
international initiatives and local struggles, groups close to the PGA are
now looking for new drives to challenge stagnation.

Call to Support for Our Action Against the G8
Development Ministerial Meeting in Tokyo:
Stop G8! Solidarity March in the South and the North

The Japanese government will host some Ministerial meetings before the
G8summit in Toyako in July. As a part of the meetings, the G8
DevelopmentMinisterial Meeting is planned in Tokyo on 5-6 April. Those
kinds ofMeetings had been held around the same time as the IMF and the
WorldBank's annual meetings before 2002. This shows that the Meeting has
beenstrongly influenced by major powers and big businesses.

G8 countries and transnational companies promoted 'development' in
poorcountries, but it causes various problems everywhere such as abuse
ofhuman rights, illegitimate debts, and global warming. Nonetheless,
theJapanese government the host country does not think seriously about
thepast failures.
