invisible children at Northern Uganda

Hardip showed us a 50min documentary in his PR class today. He was trying to let us know that everybody can be a PR practitioner in their daily life.

This documentary had been produced by 3 amateurs that has absolutely no idea what is movie-making. They just wanted to do a documentary on the childrens at Northern Uganda which almost the whole world didn't care about & doesn't give a damn about it. There was an on-going war for almost 20 years over there. The rebels abduct childrens in Northern Uganda and train them to be a killer/fighter to topple over the government. They were big enough to carry the gun & small enough to kill. How ironic. Those that didn't obey got killed. These childrens lived in fear, everynite they would travel to the hospital and sleep at the verandas. It is a sanctuary to them. All of them were afraid to sleep at home fearing that they will get abducted in the middle of the night.

Thanks to these 3 whacky guys, the whole world came together and alot of changes had been made to help the invisible children, just bcoz of 1 video =) . Im trying to search for the movie to dl, meanwhile please visit http://www.invisiblechildren.com to understand more about this tragedy. The war hasn't stop till now!

PEACE! NO WAR!
