The mission of Tribal Action Group (TAG) is to provide support and assistance to indigenous tribal peoples based on internationally accepted standards of human rights, democracy and the rule of law. TAG is currently involved in supporting indigenous tribal peoples from South East Asia (sometimes called hill tribes). The word “tribal” is defined as: “a social division in a traditional society consisting of families or communities linked by social, economic, religious, or blood ties, with a common culture and dialect, typically having a leader."
SPIRIT OF OUR MISSION
WORDS FROM THE GREAT SHAWNEE CHIEF 'TECUMSEH' (1768 - 1813)
So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and nothing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.
