Union takes another swipe at Unocal on Burma

Lakewood, Colo, July 10 (Reuter) - The Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers 
International Union (OCAW) on Thursday stepped up its campaign to get 
Unocal Corp to exit Burma with a letter to four non-executive board 
members.

OCAW president Robert Wages told the four that ``anything short of Unocal 
pulling out of Burma should prompt you to resign from Unocal's board.''

The union alleges that Unocal's involvement in Burma gives that country's 
military regime succor and financial support.

Unocal says that its role in Burma's economy is positive, that it 
provides employment at above-average wages, education and training and 
health programmes.
