Mr. Kofi Annan, Secretary-General
United Nations Headquarters
First Avenue at 46th Street, New York, NY 10017
Dear Sir:
I am John C. The Engineer Turmel listed in the Guinness
Book of Records for having contested more elections than
anyone in history and I attended the Millennium Forum as
leader of the anti-debt-slavery Abolitionist Party of
Canada.
As the world's foremost Professor of Banking Systems
Engineering, I have over 35 years experience operating zero-
interest pure-service-charge banking systems including being
Consulting Engineer of the LETS (Local Employment-Trading
System) anti-poverty program. My Advanced Banking Systems
Engineering Analysis at:
http://www.cyberclass.net/turmel/bankmath.htm has held
sway on matters related to currency and banking in both the
sci.engr and sci.econ USENET newsgroups for the past decade.
I was invited to make the presentation on May 22 2000 to the
Millennium Forum of 1350 Non-Governmental Organisations on -
restructuring the global financial architecture - with a
UNILETS usury-free alternative time-based currency
which was adopted in Resolution C6 to governments of the
http://www.un.org/Millennium/declaration.htm
C. The Forum urges The United Nations:
6. To make serious commitments to restructure the global
financial architecture based on principles of equity,
transparency, accountability, and democracy, and to balance,
with the participation of civil society organizations, the
monetary means to favor human endeavor and ecology, such as
an alternative time-based currency.
Globalization Declaration Themes
http://www.millenniumforum.org/html/papers/Globaliz_currentpaper.htm
Section 5: What the UN must do.
h) Another area of study should be the UNILETS (United
Nations International Local Employment-Trading System).
i) Local Exchange, Trade and currency practices should be
developed further and examined for international
application. The abolition of debts and the eradication of
usury are essential components in pursuing sustainable
human development.
j) The UN should convene a conference similar to the Bretton
Woods conference of 1944 to discuss what sort of new
financiala rchitecture is needed for our rapidly globalising
world. The adoption of the time standard of money and
abolition of usury rates are both ideas worthy of
consideration.
The UNILETS resolution was also adopted by the Students of
the Millennium Cyberschoolbus Conference held at the United
Nations in New York on Dec. 6-8 2000.

The LETS social currency movement has since spread to over
54 nations around the world. There were two major
international conferences, one in Germany in August and the
other at the University of Quebec at Montreal just this last
November reporting on major developments in Japan. The
International Timedollar Congress takes place this year in
Toronto in August. The use of usury-free time-truequing
social-credits to save Argentine economy was the hit of the
2003 World Social Forum and should be the hit of this 2004
World Social Forum where I will be seeking their singular
attention and support for the UNILETS Resolution C6 of the
Millennium Declaration.
LETSystems have been established in Israel for Arabs and Jews in
both Haifa and Jerusalem and are the only instance of
cooperation to date. As LETS is leading to peaceful and
prosperous trading relations in Israel, UNILETS will make
peaceful and prosperous trading relations possible around
the whole world.
I am further known for my demand for ASA, Global Aspirin:
Amnesty for all financially-induced crime, Security with a
UNILETS usury-free credit-card and Anonymity by name-
change for all who so desire.
On 2003 Dec 20, Hank Ketchum's Dennis the Menace at
http://www.cyberclass.net/turmel/dennis.jpg told the
department store Santa hearing his Christmas wish list:
Just bring me a credit card and I'll take care of the
rest.
The Secretary-General's Report on the Implementation of the
Millennium Declaration 2003 fails to mention any
implementation of the Section C6 UNILETS resolution. The
Time Standard of Money must be adopted by the UN to deliver
on the promise to restructure the global financial
architecture with an upgraded UNILETS usury-free time-
based credit card and let the world's children take care of
the rest themselves.
I request and require that this demand be added to the
agenda of the United Nations General Assembly and that the
Assembly invite me, at its pleasure, to plead it before the
members. You are obliged to bring the matter to the
attention of the General Assembly, which alone can consent
to my appearance -- as it did to the appearance of Yasser
Arafat. I expect you to respond by strict adherence to
protocol and refer the matter to the heads of delegations to
the General Assembly who will advise their respective
governments and seek instruction.
I am a slave to their debt system who shall never tire of
fighting for my freedom. The greatest revolution of slaves
of yore was lost by Spartacus challenging Rome when he
should have marched on the true oppressors, Rome's creditors
in Babylon.
I am, my dear Secretary-General, with profound respect,
Spartacus At Babylon
JCT: Now, if the World Social Forum can drop all their
resolutions condemning all the bad things and just adopt one
resolution promoting the one necessary good thing, maybe it
can make the UN deliver UNILETS as promised. Or the next
Timedollar Congress. Or the next...
