======================================================================


    There is an alternative - Carlsberg is withdrawing from Burma
    -------------------------------------------------------------

	* Two multinational breweries Carlsberg and Heineken have 
          planned investments in Burma.

	* Now the Danish-based brewery Carlsberg has announced that it 
	  withdraws its interest in Burma while the Dutch-based brewery 
	  Heineken still continues its investments in one of the worst 
	  dictatorship in the world.

	* Carlsberg decision is an important step in the isolation of 
	  the SLORC-dictatorship in Burma. And it is a victory for 
	  business ethic.
          --------------

	* Furthermore Carlsberg's decision makes it much easier for 
	  consumers to vote for democracy and human rights while 
          shopping.

	* The Danish Burma Committee calls for a boycott against Heineken.
          There is an alternative!!!
