[HWPL] The 9th Annual Commemoration of the DPCW in Malaysia

[HWPL] The 9th Annual Commemoration of the DPCW in Malaysia


Chairman ManHee Lee is the head representative of the global peace organization HWPL (Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light), which is striving for the enactment and implementation of the international peace law 'Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW)'. The  DPCW is a legal instrument comprised of 10 articles and 38 clauses that can end wars and hostilities throughout the world. HWPL is also spreading a culture of peace and implementing peace education.

Chairman ManHee Lee experienced the cruelty and tragedy of war as a veteran of the Korean War. This is one of the reasons why he founded a global peace campaign as the head of HWPL. He has traveled the globe more than 35 times to meet and persuade politicians, legal experts, journalists, professors, peace activists, civil organization leaders, heads of tribes and others to unite them for the work of peace. The significant fruits borne out of his hard work are the World Alliance of Religions' Peace (WARP) Summit and HWPL Peace Committee. The DPCW was drafted and finalised by the HWPL Peace Committee.

How, you may wonder, do I know this? About 10 years ago, when I had just been discharged from military service, I came to know HWPL and Chairman ManHee Lee while researching the topic of civil conflicts to satisfy my curiosity in ongoing global issues. At that time, the island of Mindanao in the Philippines was suffering from a major civil conflict that lasted more than 40 years, and Chairman ManHee Lee and HWPL resolved this conflict through non-violent means.

Chairman Lee brought an end to the conflict in Mindanao by holding a peace talk between the warring Catholic and Islamic groups. Before the talk, HWPL and Chairman ManHee Lee held a Peace Walk to spread the culture of peace in Mindanao with the many locals who had gathered out of a desire for peace.

Chairman ManHee Lee's pressing appeal today is that humanity unites for sustainable peace in order to pass on the legacy of peace to future generations worldwide. He doesn't just talk peace, but has worked tirelessly for it through practical peace campaigns for over a decade.

I decided to become a supporter of HWPL and Chairman ManHee Lee's peace initiatives because I also desire a world of peace for all posterity.

Today I'd like to introduce an article regarding 9th Annual Commemoration of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War by HWPL Malaysia :)

Building Bridges of UNITY

The 9th Annual Commemoration of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW) hosted by HWPL Malaysia included inspiring words delivered by YB Senator Puan Saraswathy Kandasami, Deputy Minister of Unity, on the importance of unity in peacebuilding. Her message was a reminder that peace begins with each of us - through understanding, respect, and cooperation.

The 11th Anniversary of the January 24 HWPL Peace Day in the Philippines: Youth Marching Towards Peace

On January 24, the 11th Anniversary of the January 24 HWPL Peace Day and Peace Walk was grandly held at Aguinaldo Shrine and Freedom Park in Kawit, Cavite, Philippines. The HWPL Philippines Branch and the Department of Education in the Cavite-Kawit Sub-office jointly organized this event. Approximately 8,000 people participated in this meaningful occasion, including government officials, educators, elementary and secondary school students, media representatives, and local citizens.

Delivery of the “Peace Handprint Flag”: Symbolizing the Youth’s Commitment to Peace

This event was part of HWPL’s campaign to support the DPCW (Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War) for a world without war, with a particular focus on encouraging youth to take the lead in realizing peace. As part of the ceremony, students wrote a total of 11,565 letters addressed to the President of the Philippines, urging peace efforts. Additionally, they presented a special performance by delivering the “Peace Handprint Flag”—a representation of the Philippine flag created using their thumbprints, symbolizing their personal commitment to peace.

Reaffirming the Meaning of Peace at a Historic Philippine Landmark

The Aguinaldo Shrine, where the event took place, is a historically significant site in the Philippines, symbolizing the country’s independence movement. Many education officials attending the event emphasized that just as Filipino heroes fought for independence in the past, today’s generation must now come together for peace.
Elpidia B. Bergado, Head of Curriculum Implementation at the Cavite Department of Education, expressed:

“The Peace Walk was not just an event but a platform for youth to actively support and act upon the DPCW. I hope Cavite Province will become a leader in peace education, setting an example for expanding peace education throughout the Philippines.”

During the event, the “Peace Club” Inauguration Ceremony was also held, during which 13 schools in Cavite Province launched their Peace Clubs. Students took an oath of commitment, pledging to actively contribute to both their local communities and global peace efforts.

The HWPL Philippines Branch plans to expand peace education across the country and strengthen global cooperation for international law legislation. It aims to introduce peace education and establish Peace Clubs in 333 schools across Cavite Province, ensuring that youth take a leading role in spreading a culture of peace.

We expect to continue our collaboration with the HWPL Philippines Branch and the Philippine Department of Education for sustainable peace initiatives that will flourish in the coming years.

New Committee Launches to Bridge Korean Peninsula Divide and Focus on Legal Framework for Unification


South Korea – March 14, 2025 – At the “HWPL’s 9th Annual Commemoration of the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW)“ held in Cheongju, South Korea, a significant step toward Korean Peninsula unification was taken with the launch of the “Preparatory Committee for Peaceful Unification on the Korean Peninsula.” The event, themed ”Building Bridges for Korean Reunification: Establishing Legal and Practical Frameworks for Peace”, drew about a thousand domestic and international leaders, outlining a comprehensive plan for a nationwide peace and unification initiative.

Spearheaded by HWPL, a UN ECOSOC-accredited international NGO, the <Together: Connecting Korea> campaign, involving approximately 170 civic groups, aims to foster communication and harmony across Korean society. The newly formed committee will focus on expanding socio-cultural exchanges between North and South Korea and establishing a robust foundation for future unification.

“(HWPL’s) tireless work is proof that peace is not just an ideal but an achievable goal when there is will and action. From the Central American Parliament, we firmly support all unification and integration initiatives that promote peace, such as the dialogue for the reunification of the Koreas,” stated Hon. Carlos Rene Hernandez Castillo, President of Central American Parliament.


HWPL Chairman Lee Man-hee said, “The expeditious path to unification lies in the implementation of free movement. It is imperative that we pursue unification through constructive dialogue without force. Our country must become a testament to peace. We should work together thereby future generations can be happy and our wishes can come true” and presented a vision for peaceful unification on the Korean peninsula.

Ven. Seok Yeonhwa, Chairman of the Supreme Patriarch of the World Buddhist Sangha Council, detailed the committee’s future plans by saying, “We will unite people's hearts through campaigns, expand the public understanding and support for unification through education, and conduct research on post-unification social and economic integration.”

Kim Yeong-geun, the 32nd Rector of Sungkyunkwan emphasized the critical role of civilian exchanges, calling for “a legal and institutional framework to ensure their continuity, regardless of political shifts.”

A cornerstone of the event was the presentation of a draft of “The Constitution Establishing a Unified Korea” by Professor Ciarán Burke of Friedrich-Schiller University Jena. Developed by the HWPL International Law Peace Committee, this draft establishes legal foundations for a unified Korea, including denuclearization goals and a peace system that protects citizens’ rights and welfare. “(This initiative) will be furthering the cause of Korean unification, of future stability, and ensuring that the region – and the world – is likely to remain a more peaceful place," said Prof. Burk.


The Together Campaign’s “Connect Korea Challenge” (https://togetherconnectkorea.kr/) is actively promoting unification through advocating free movement and international support. Within 10 days, participants from 243 cities across 72 countries contributed over 1,350 pieces of content, demonstrating global interest in a peaceful unification on the Korean Peninsula.
