Yoko backing Burma monks struggle Yoko Ono has sent a message of support to monks campaigning for democracy in Burma via social networking website Facebook. John Lennon's widow urges the monks - leaders of peaceful opposition to the military junta - to "stay alive in peace and health".
Yoko's message reads:
There is no way we will forget you. Now that your work of letting the world know is done, I wish you to stay alive in peace and health. The world desperately needs your wise and gentle spirit. You help all people of this planet by just being. Please try to be alive for the world. I will try the same.
With my deepest respect and love,
Yoko Ono Lennon
