at the Tour Guide Hawaii Rental Office
(see here for map) Thursday-Saturday
afternoons through May. The following
is a press release from the artist
concerning the cancellation of his good-

of cultural repression and physical
violence towards the people of Tibet and

PRESS RELEASE: China 'Goodwill Tour' by
Internationally Exhibited Hawaii Artist
Aelbert Aehegma Canceled:
The Artist Requests:
1~ Citizens of the Free World Boycott
the Olympics In China.
2~ Cancel Travel to China; Other
International Regimes That Suppress
Freedom Of Their People.
3~World Citizens to Limit Purchasing
Chinese Products as well as
Products Of Other Nationalist Regimes
That Deny Basic Human Rights Of Its
Citizens.
Aelbert Aehegma has initiated this
Worldwide request upon being Cut-off
From Communicating With his host, A
Chinese doctor who was arranging The
'Goodwill Tour'; neither by phone nor
private or Government e-mail can she
be reached.
World Citizens cannot look the other
way; Human Rights Violations of the
Tibetans, the Uigers, and other minority
groups in China, Chi Gung Practitioners,
as well as minorities in other non-free
regimes must be confronted, and the
regimes that abuse their People or we
each fail to be part of the greater human
family.
Therefore, Aelbert Aehegma has canceled
his Goodwill 'Tour to China' during
which he was to gift a large mural the
Beijing Museum, visit artists, dignitaries
and children.
The Artist, whose fine art of paintings
and sculptures have been exhibited in
over a dozen countries, has also been
honored to have his art in the First
Art Show in Space aboard the Russian
MIR Space Station in a successful inter-
national effort.
