The Burma Campaign 'Dirty List'
In response to calls from Burma’s
democracy movement, the Burma Campaign UK and other campaign groups
around the world have been pressuring companies to sever business ties
with Burma.
Please contact one or more of the
companies on the Dirty List and ask them to cut their ties with Burma’s
military government. If appropriate, tell them you will not purchase
their products as long as they continue to support the regime in Burma.
Letters written in your own words are most effective. If you don’t have
much time, don’t worry - just one or two paragraphs will do. Please be
polite!
We would be grateful if you could send us a copy of any responses you receive.

Swift
Swift is a financial services
co-operative company owned and controlled by many of the world’s
largest banks, including Citibank, HSBC and ABN Amro. Swift hosts an
electronic network that banks use to make transfers to each other.
Following the imposition of financial sanctions by the United States
government in August 2003 the regime faced a crisis, unable to use
dollars in financial transactions. Swift came to their aid, making four
Burmese banks part of its network. The regime is now able to avoid US
financial sanctions by making financial transfers in Euros using
Swift’s network.
