On the Third International Action Day against Shwe Gas Development Project in Burma, we demand the following...We strongly urge that Daewoo International, KOGAS and the Korean government should immediately look into the current situation of labor, human and environmental rights of local people in relation to Shwe gas project and present measures against expected human rights violations and environmental disruption...Daewoo International should make it clear about all the suspicions of exporting strategic items to Burma and about gas development. [also refers to Total, Unocal (part of Chevron)]
