[HWPL] Nations of Korean War and HWPL. Serial Posting 1. United States of America

[HWPL] Nations of Korean War and HWPL. Serial Posting 1. United States of America





Year 2020 is the 70th anniversary of the Korean War which scarred the whole Korean peninsula in the 20th century. Two ideologies (democracy and communism) clashed on a small peninsula as 21 countries fought for the ideologies they followed and more than 50 countries helping one side with medical or financial support. All people struggled for the peace that they believed in, resulting in more than one million casualties. Today, Chairman Man Hee Lee and his peace groups (HWPL, IWPG and IPYG) are working together with people throughout the world for sustainable world peace. I begin these serial postings recalling the Korean War, paying respect to all those who fought and sacrificed their lives in the Korean War, and inform you how Mr. Man Hee Lee and his peace groups (HWPL, IWPG and IPYG) have been working for world peace and for future generations :)

Every week, I will write about one country that participated in the Korean War and how the country has been working together with Chairman Man Hee Lee and these peace groups for world peace :)

Today's country is the United States of America.


The United States of America dispatched 480,000 including General Douglas MacArthur, but suffered almost 20,000 casualties, including those missing and POWs. The USA is the first country to send reinforcements (Task Force Smith) and support South Korea after the war, both financially and medically. They comprised the majority of the United Nations Army in the Korean War.




Honorable Veterans of Korean War from the United States of America

Chairman Man Hee Lee of HWPL, who is also a veteran of the Korean War, underwent all kinds of cruelty and hardship in the Korean War and has been working for world peace since 2012. Contributing towards the efforts of Chairman Lee and HWPL, people in the United States of America have responded with great participation to HWPL's initiatives and events. Citizens of Los Angeles, New York, Washington D.C. and more cities joined in the annual May 25th Peace Walk, The WARP (World Alliance of Religions and Peace) Office, the Legislate Peace campaign, 918 World Peace WARP (World Alliance of Religions' Peace) Summit. Moreover, some members of HWPL's International Law Peace Committee (which helped Chairman Man Hee Lee to draft and implement the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War) come from the United States. Manhattan, Carson City and other cities in the United States of America even officially designated March 14th 'HWPL Day' to commemorate HWPL's Peace Work.








I'm certain and hopeful that people in the United States of America will keep working with Chairman Man Hee Lee and HWPL for world peace and a brighter future for future generations as they have done so far :)


Peace!

[Peace News] Paju City Council Passes 'The Korean Peninsula Peace City Ordinance'


파주시 '한반도 평화수도 조례안' 시의회 통과 / Reporter Daejoon Park / Jan 21st 2020 / Paju, Korea / news1

It was declared in Paju city, Gyeonggi province, South Korea, that the 'Peace City Construction Ordinance of Paju City' was passed by Paju City Council on Jan 21st 2020. The ordinance was passed to legalize strategy and systems for the creation of Paju city as a peace city, and to accelerate the building blocks of peaceful unification of the Korean peninsula and realization of Paju as 'Peace City of the Korean Peninsula'.

The ordinance consists of :

1. Plans for establishment as a peace city and mayoral responsibilities
2. Establishment of Peace City Committee with a system and function
3. Limits to North-South Korean exchange initiatives and foundation of its fund
4. Establishment of Plan for Peace and Unification Education

Therefore, Paju city can now concretely implement a basic foundation to change Paju city into an international Peace City through the ordinance that enables :

1. Respect for the values of freedom, equality, life and cooperation
2. Various North-South Korean exchanges for peace
3. Peaceful utilization of DMZ and boundary area
4. Nurturing peaceful citizens through peace and unification education
5. Cooperation between Korean and international cities that collaborate for world peace

As a member of HWPL Supporters ONE, I wish Paju city becomes a good model with a culture of peace and also to work together with HWPL (Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light) and its Chairman Man Hee Lee to fulfill a true culture of peace for world peace through the DPCW (Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War) :)

Peace!
