      Dear Editor,

  As you can see around you, people everywhere are suffering from hunger. The people who are grateful enough to have a roof on top of them, doesn't even appreciate what they have. People are so ignorant these days. They don't realize the bad things that's going on around them but instead, they whine about how they don't have the newest phone, the latest trends, or how they hate their parents for 'ruining their lives'.
  Indonesia is one of the countries in which there are lots and lots of people dying from hunger, and we know how those people live. They live on the ground, only having a piece of cardboard and one outfit, being forced to go out to the streets and beg for money from people; but the thing is, the people who beg for money are little children, children under the age of five.
  Students from Indonesia could help them, for we are the kids who are lucky enough to have food in our stomachs, money in our pockets, and a shelter to live in. We see them everyday when we're on our way to the mall, or to the office, or school. We understand their need for money and food to keep themselves living.
  We have gathered a lot of people who are willing to donate or give them food, and I believe that if each person helped at least two people, we could slowly help them and world hunger would eventually lessen, maybe even be gone. I know that most of the people here would look at us as if we're idiots, but you have no right to underestimate a group of children or teenagers just because we're young.
  You have no idea what we're capable of doing, therefore you have no right to judge us from the outside. You can never know how smart we actually are.
  Thank you for taking the time to read this letter from us students, I hope it could change the world for the better.

 Yours Truly,

Bidari Maharani

Peace Symbol

The Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) is an organisation that advocates unilateral nuclear disarmament by the United Kingdom, international nuclear disarmament and tighter international arms regulation through agreements such as the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. It opposes military action that may result in the use of nuclear, chemical, or biological weapon and the building of nuclear power stations in the UK.

CND was formed in 1957 and since that time has periodically been at the forefront of the peace movement in the UK. It claims to be Europe's largest single-issue peace campaign. Between 1959 and 1965 it organised the Aldermaston March, which was held over the Easter weekend from the Atomic Weapon Establishment near Aldermaston to Trafalgar Square, London The first Aldermaston March in 1958 went the other way (from London to Aldermaston) and was organised by the Direct Action Committee.

The Campaign's General Secretary is Kate Hudson.
