AI HR Quote of the Day (r)

[dawnstar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

hello neil, you say i missed a story in the FT but you -- again -- miss
the point, worth repeating "Human dignity is not quoted on the stock
market", Pierre Sané SG Amnesty International.

If you found an article buried (p18) in the FT on business ethics and
human rights, would you be so kind as to print it. 

I just looked in my Dec 10 FT copy. The story you presume is not there.
Sorry, your mistake. But its worth a look so you can smile again about
human rights violations, so please find it and print it, if it exists.
have a good human rights day, and please
dont forget the point of the mail, human dignity, you wont find it in
stock quotes, not yet anyway.Or on page 18 of the FT.You will find a
smiling Ericsson executive, but the company wipeout last week, he ain't
smiling. At least Ericsson said Burma is bad investment, even if the FT
and you don't think so.
