CLEAN CLOTHES CAMPAIGN LAUNCHES A CAMPAIGN ON TRIUMPH,
A SWISS UNDERWARE COMPANY OPERATING IN BURMA
The Clean Clothes Campaign has been informed that Triumph
International, the Switzerland-based garment company, is operating
a factory in Burma.
The exiled trade union federation of Burma, the
Federation of Trade Unions - Burma (FTUB) has
called for support of a campaign to demand that
Triumph pull out of Burma. This is also the demand of
Aung San Suu Kyi, the leader of Burma's struggle for
democracy. Aung San Suu Kyi, winner of the Nobel
Peace Prize in 1991 and still under house arrest for her
ongoing efforts in defiance of the country's brutal
military regime, supports this strategy, as does the
National League for Democracy.
On January 19th the CCC is organizing demonstrations in support of this
demand-- Let
Triumph and retailers that sell Triumph products in your country know that you
support
this campaign.

supports
Burmese junta...." -- check the Swiss CCC website www.cleanclothes.ch
