dated August 12, 1953: Asian Socialists Meet in India

The Bureau of Asian Socialist Conference met in the Hill Fort Palace in Hyderabad on the 10th under the presidentship of its Chairman, U Ba Swe, Burma's Defence Minister, and discussed a resolution on peace in East Asia. The Japanese peace treaty, the Korean settlement, admission of Red China into the United Nations, the presence of K.M.T. troops in Burma, and the situation in Indo-China, figured prominently in the discussions. U Ba Swe told the gathering that, while the armistice in Korea and the demand of Cambodia for independence were hopeful signs of the growing desire of the people to attain freedom, certain Big Powers tended to persist in imperialist policies of repression and racial discrimination.

As long as they persisted in such policies, world tension would not ease.
