Panties for Peace!
This is too, too good! Grrls, package those panties and ship them away!
From the Inbox:
Women in several countries, including Australia, have begun sending their underpants to Burma embassies in a culturally insulting gesture of protest against the recent brutal crackdown. “It’s an extremely strong message in Burmese and in all Southeast Asian culture,” said Liz Hilton, who supports an activist group that launched the “Panties for Peace” drive earlier this week.
The group, Lanna Action for Burma, says the country’s superstitious generals, especially junta leader General Than Shwe, also believe that contact with women’s underwear saps them of power, even if the panties are clean & laundered.
To widespread international condemnation, the military in Burma crushed mass anti-regime demonstrations recently and continues to hunt down and imprison those who took part.
Hilton said women in Thailand, Australia, Singapore, England and other European countries had started sending or delivering their underwear to Burma missions following informal coordination among activist organisations and individuals.
“You can post, deliver or fling your panties at the closest Burmese Embassy any day from today. Send early, send often!” the Lanna Action for Burma website urges.
“So far we have had no response from Burmese officials,” Hilton said today.

Brilliant and Marvellous idea.
This regime all the time trying to convince other that they are doing great job for the country, Burma.
And, China, India, Thailand and Singapore are enjoying business with this regime.
I am sure majority of Burmese support your activities, and I have sent this message to at least 30 per person at oversea.
Thank you again for your brilliant idea.

Man, too bad I don’t live near Burma. I love flinging my panties, and I’m always searching for a place to fling them.
