Shwe Gas Movement Report - September 2011

On 5 September Shwe Gas Movement, a Burmese community-based human rights NGO, issued the report: "Sold Out: Launch of China pipeline project unleashes abuse across Burma".  The report alleges human rights abuses taking place in the construction of the Shwe gas pipeline, including displacement, forced labour, discrimination, sexual violence and other forms of violence, and killings. The report also states that the pipeline is fueling conflict and will drain Burma of the natural gas resources it needs to develop.

Business & Human Rights Resource Centre invited the companies named in the report to respond to the allegations.  See below for the company responses.

After reviewing the company responses, on 22 Nov Shwe Gas Movement sent a rejoinder [PDF] to the Resource Centre.  We then invited the companies to respond to the rejoinder.

Company responses to Shwe Gas Movement's rejoinder  (as of 14 Dec 2011)

Daewoo International responded with the following statement, "Daewoo's comprehensive report  will be published in early December.Hopefully, the report will help your understanding of our project."
