Chairman Man Hee Lee, the Messenger of Peace

What inspired the Chairman, who is now entering his mid-80s, to start this movement? Something should have initiated the wave of HWPL. In one of his interviews, Chairman Lee explains that the terrible experiences in the Korean War gave him the determination to pursue this peace work. As a young man in the 1950s, Chairman Lee volunteered in the Korean War, a war that completely divided one people into two. The views of his comrades dying right by him affected him tremendously and taught him the disaster that a war is capable of creating. This experience influenced him to start this peace movement to end all wars. Although some wars are caused by political difference, some wars are also caused by religions. This is why the Chairman proposes few solutions. The enactment of an international law and the unification of all religion under one creator. This was a lifelong dedication of Chairman Lee that finally blossomed at this era. And the world hopes to see many other peace movements under the visions of HWPL and Chairman Lee to happen in various places of the world.
