GET PREMIER OIL OUT OF BURMA!
If there were award ceremonies for unethical corporations Premier Oil would be in line for the Lifetime Achievement Award. As the largest UK investor in Burma it has played an important role in helping to keep the regime in power. Premier Oil's investment in the Yetagun gasfield not only provides the regime with millions of dollars to spend on arms, but also provides it with a veneer of respectability.
The Burma Campaign UK has been campaigning for many years to persuade Premier Oil to pull out of Burma. The campaign has gained the support of Aung San Suu Kyi and the British government.
"I'm going to make it quite clear, we do not approve of what Premier are doing, they know that perfectly well. We would much rather they stopped and they know that perfectly well."
Former Foreign Secretary Robin Cook
"Premier should be ashamed of themselves."
Aung San Suu Kyi
TAKE ACTION!
