REVIEW FTA NEGOTIATIONS WITH UNITED STATES

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 10 (Bernama) -- The Malaysian Bar Council has urged the government to review Free Trade Agreement (FTA) negotiations with the United States for supporting Israeli atrocities against Palestinians.

Its president Ambiga Sreenavasan said the Bar Council supported the move
urging the people to boycott Jewish products as protest against the Israeli
onslaught on Gaza.

"Israeli atrocities on Palestinians is unacceptable and must be strongly
condemned, hence this forum so that the people will understand the Palestine-
Israel conflict," she told Bernama at the 'Not Just Another War: Myth and
Reality in Occupied Palestine" here Friday night.

Ambiga said world leaders should cooperate to address the conflict to stop
the bloodshed in Palestine.

The forum which discussed the Palestine-Israel conflict that stretched for
decades was attended by more than 200 participants.
