Dear Rachel,  9999.

On behalf of al concerned with Burma Out!!, thank you
for your assuistance in these "sporting" matters.

Strangely enough we knew that J Walker whiskey
were involved in something like this. They issued 
leaflets in clubs about their "expansion to the east"
but they did not mention Burma.

Another company on which to check is Dunhill Tobacco
of S Africa?? Bet they are in Rangoon as well as Jakarta


However, IF ONE WISHES TO GRAB HEADLINES
on this, and it could so do. There is a need to fix a demo
outside the new Guinness HQ in London, dont'yuh think?

The Chief Exec is one JACK KEEMAN

THEIR TELEPHONE # IS 0171 927 5200


Please ask around and tell me whwt feedback you get on
this..   Johnny Walker would make a great UK  and Euro
target, methinks, We know exactly when they stage tournaments
in the UK.. But I can't do this alone, needs a few "gardeners"
and their like..

But it could be fun fun fun!!! ;-)

Roger,

Thought you might be interested in the following entriy in IRRC on Guinness:

Ticker Exchange: GUIN
Cusip: 402033

Guinness Stout Beer, a product of Guinness Brewing Worldwide Ltd. of London, 
was introduced in
Burma on Jan 10, 1996. An ad campaign for the beer is co-sponsered by DP 
Intertrade Pte Ltd of
Singapore and Tet Nay Ltd of Myanmar.
In  addition, Guinness subsidiary United Distillers, of London, told IRRC in 
April 1997 that the
company "does not sell any of its products to any company in Burma." However 
SULT Corp. Pte Ltd
of Singapore does sell United Distillers' Johnnie Walker and other consumer 
products in Burma. The
Johnnie Walker Inter-Club championship Golf Tournament, a qualifying round 
for the 1996 South-East
Asia Amateur Golf Tournament, was held in Rangoon in May 1996. the Myanmar 
Golf Federation,
Johnnie Walker and Hans Golf Masters Private Ltd sponsored the tournament.

Yours,
Rachel
