BAD ASIA-PACIFIC
THE BURMA ACTION DIRECTORY (BAD)
PART II -- GEOGRAPHIC LIST
SLICE 1 ASIA-PACIFIC
Update October 1996
This Directory, which is in constant evolution, and therefore
always out of date, is a networking tool for the Burma support
community. It does not try to cover the whole of the Burma
support community or the organisations interested in Burma.
Many of the groups and individuals have specialized interests
and information which may be mentioned where not obvious from
their titles. The Directory is in three parts: Thematic,
Geographic and Corporate. There is much overlap between the
thematic and geographic sections. The Geographic section tends
to be updated before the Thematic.
BAD is particularly weak on media, academics and governments.
Please send corrections and additions to the Burma Peace
Foundation, which will put out a BAD UPDATE from time to time
on reg.burma, soc.cult.burma and other places on the internet.
PLEASE SEND NAMES, PHONE, FAX, MAIL AND EMAIL ADDRESSES
OF BURMA DESK OFFICERS AND REGIONAL OFFICERS OF GOVERNMENTS
AND REGIONAL ORGANISATIONS to darnott@xxxxxxxxxxx
