Result:
A letter from GoPetition in October 2008 to the United Nations (enclosing a link to over 500,000 signatures) requested that the UN include Traditional Chinese in all press releases and UN documents. The letter from GoPetition was ignored by the UN which did not acknowledge the protest.
The protest should continue through 2012. Please support.

Petition text:
We, the undersigned, are appalled by the abolishment of Traditional Chinese in UN documents. This is an act of annihilation of the culture and history of the Chinese people.
Both Traditional and Simplified Chinese are of extreme significance and should be recognized equally on the international level and by UN.
