The Norwegian government has been accused of complicity in illegal land seizures, forced labour and killings, by investing national funds in international companies that operate inside Burma on projects where widespread abuses are alleged to have taken place.
A state-controlled pension fund that is a repository for some of Norway's own oil wealth has invested up to $4.7bn in 15 oil and gas companies operating inside the South-east Asian country.
The companies are accused of participating in projects where various human rights violations have taken place. Activists claim the pension fund is in breach of its own guidelines for responsible investment. The allegations come just days after Norway hosted the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony.
Land confiscation, forced labour and other abuses are happening in connection with several gas and oil pipeline projects in Burma, according to Naing Htoo of EarthRights International, which is today publishing a report detailing the alleged abuses being committed by the Burmese government. "There's every indication abuses connected to these projects will continue, and, in some cases, worsen," he said.
A number of those companies in which the Norwegian fund has investments have previously been accused in relation to controversial projects in Burma which has been controlled by a military junta since 1962. Among them are Total Oil of France, in which the Norwegian fund has an investment of $2.6bn, and the US-based Chevron Corp, in which the fund has $900m invested.
EarthRights International insists that widespread violations continue to be committed by the Burmese army in support of many oil and gas projects that earn the regime millions of dollars. The group says that troops providing security for the Yadana and Yetagun pipelines have carried out extra-judicial killings.
"The Burmese regime has long demonstrated itself as an unsuitable business partner," said Steve Gumaer, of the Norway-based aid group Partners Relief and Development. "Business ventures conducted through official channels in Burma directly support the regime's abuse of the ethnic populations and pro-democracy citizens in Burma today."
He added: "It is said that villages in north-eastern Burma have benefited by this sort of 'economic engagement'. I have seen the devastating results; instead of schools, health and hygiene programmes, are the ashes of villages that have been burnt down. I have talked to women who were raped, men who were forced to serve as porters."
The Norwegian fund has a total of $3.6bn invested in companies involved in these projects that transport offshore gas from the Andaman Sea. Total, Chevron and other companies have denied claims that their operations inside Burma encourage abuses such as forced labour and land seizure.
The report also claims the Norwegian fund has investments in companies that are involved in projects in the Shwe gas fields, which have also been linked to abuses such as forced labour.
The Norwegian fund, established in 1990, is the second largest sovereign wealth fund in the world, with assets estimated at $512bn and investments in 8,000 companies. It is forecast to double in size by 2020. Because of previous allegations over unethical investments, the fund, controlled by the Norwegian central bank on behalf of the ministry of finance, is overseen by an ethical advisory council.
In 2007, the Norwegian authorities said they were withdrawing the fund's investments from Vedanta Resources, the British company that was seeking to mine bauxite on a mountain in eastern India many considered sacred .
In 2005, the council was asked to consider the fund's investment in Total and whether it breached guidelines. The council said it believed it likely that Total was aware of human rights violations on projects in Burma between 1995 and 1998, but this "did not provide a basis for exclusion from the fund, as it is only the risk for present or future violations of the guidelines which can prompt exclusion".
When allegations of forced labour were earlier levelled at Total in summer 2009, the company issued a statement saying, "local inhabitants around the Yadana pipeline say they are happy to have us there; they are, above all, grateful that there is no forced labour around our pipeline".
Last night, Norway's foreign ministry said it had not been made aware of EarthRights International's report. "The Norwegian government is worried about the situation for human rights in Burma," a spokesman said. The fund,he added, was "a financial investor with investments in more than 8,000 companies. It is therefore difficult for the Ministry to make comments related to a specific company in the fund's portfolio."

2010-11-15英国首相和前首相都对诺贝尔和平奖得主昂山素季的获释感到高兴。流亡英国的缅甸民主人士除了表达对昂山素季终于获释无比欢欣外，在接受记者访问时，还希望和平推动中国民主的诺贝尔奖得主刘晓波也能获得释放。自由亚洲电台特约记者张安安发自英国伦敦的报道

Asian press cautiously optimistic on Burma changes
Asian regional newspapers are cautiously welcoming Burma's decision to release democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi, with many taking the line that it is a small step in the right direction.
Some voices in the Indian and Chinese press defend the policy of non-interference in Burma's affairs and the pursuit of trade as the best channels to encourage Burma to open up.
Many commentators are guarded in their optimism about Ms Suu Kyi's ability to bring about change in Burma, saying the challenge of uniting pro-democracy opposition forces will be enormous.
AN TI IN CHINA'S DONGFANG ZAOBAO
No one can predict whether Suu Kyi will be under house arrest again in future, but if the world keeps using trade and assistance to encourage the country to open up, it might enable this country to finally embark on the road of reform and opening up... Ms Aung San Suu Kyi and the Burmese people will find a new path together with the authorities.
EDITORIAL IN INDIA'S THE PIONEER
Much as some may find the junta to be needlessly obstinate and its "persecution" of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi obnoxious, it must be conceded that Burma's rulers were firm in deciding what was in the best interest of their nation. Just as bringing about regime change cannot be the moral obligation of any one country, interference in the domestic affairs of a nation must not be seen as a presumed right by anybody.
EDITORIAL IN THE TIMES OF INDIA
Suu Kyi's release, her public offer to talk to the government and the signs she has shown of softening on the sanctions - she had supported them for a number of years - provide an opportunity to pursue democratic reform while ending Myanmar's [Burma's] diplomatic isolation and economic stagnation. New Delhi must play its part in this by encouraging and facilitating talks between Suu Kyi and the government. It would be unrealistic to expect New Delhi to align with the West against the government as it has been exhorted to do.
KARAN THAPAR IN INDIA'S HINDUSTAN TIMES
The truth is there's a small body of Indians who feel dismayed, even betrayed, by the way our governments have turned their back on Aung San Suu Kyi and the struggle for democracy in Burma... But, sadly, our pleas have fallen on deaf ears. The Congress and the BJP [main government and opposition political parties, respectively] have remained impervious to our exhortations. Nothing has changed.
EDITORIAL IN THAILAND'S THE NATION
It is pivotal that Suu Kyi and her opposition colleagues must map out long-term strategies to counter the regime's move. The international community will watch her closely.
EDITORIAL IN THAILAND'S BANGKOK POST
The junta's release of Aung San Suu Kyi is simply to curry favour… it must be held accountable for tough questions such as stealing last week's election and for getting into the nuclear arms business with North Korea.
EDITORIAL IN MALAYSIA'S NEW STRAITS TIMES
The generals have both the power to kill democracy and the opportunity to let it live. One can only hope that as the old generals fade away the new guard will set in motion steps to dismantle military rule, restore it to the civilians and return to the barracks.
EDITORIAL IN SINGAPORE'S THE STRAITS TIMES
The election introduced not a seismic shift, but a degree of structural change... [Suu Kyi's] challenges now include unifying pro-democracy opposition parties and factions and possibly mustering a mass movement as a moral force for democracy, outside the political party system.
EDITORIAL IN THE AUSTRALIAN
While the regime is odious, Burma is stuck with it and the West should maintain a dialogue with the dictators, if only to discourage them from locking up Ms Suu Ki again. Despite being a national hero, she lacks the political resources to challenge the regime.
EDITORIAL IN INDONESIA'S KOMPAS
Suu Kyi has still a long way to go before being able to lead a democratic Burma. In this case, Burma is not alone. Indonesia, South Africa and South Korea also had to wait for decades before having democracy.
EDITORIAL IN BANGLADESH'S DAILY STAR
For the junta, it is important that it follow up on the democracy leader's release with moves to engage with her on political change in Myanmar. If it believes Aung San Suu Kyi has now been rendered ineffective, it will be making a mistake. The spirited manner in which her freedom was welcomed in global capitals is a patent demonstration of how indispensable she remains to the future of Myanmar.

New Delhi must play its part in this by encouraging and facilitating talks between Suu Kyi and the government. It would be unrealistic to expect New Delhi to align with the West against the government as it has been exhorted to do.
KARAN THAPAR IN INDIA'S HINDUSTAN TIMES
The truth is there's a small body of Indians who feel dismayed, even betrayed, by the way our governments have turned their back on Aung San Suu Kyi and the struggle for democracy in Burma... But, sadly, our pleas have fallen on deaf ears. The Congress and the BJP [main government and opposition political parties, respectively] have remained impervious to our exhortations. Nothing has changed.
EDITORIAL IN THAILAND'S THE NATION
It is pivotal that Suu Kyi and her opposition colleagues must map out long-term strategies to counter the regime's move. The international community will watch her closely.
EDITORIAL IN THAILAND'S BANGKOK POST
The junta's release of Aung San Suu Kyi is simply to curry favour… it must be held accountable for tough questions such as stealing last week's election and for getting into the nuclear arms business with North Korea.
EDITORIAL IN MALAYSIA'S NEW STRAITS TIMES
The generals have both the power to kill democracy and the opportunity to let it live. One can only hope that as the old generals fade away the new guard will set in motion steps to dismantle military rule, restore it to the civilians and return to the barracks.
EDITORIAL IN SINGAPORE'S THE STRAITS TIMES
The election introduced not a seismic shift, but a degree of structural change... [Suu Kyi's] challenges now include unifying pro-democracy opposition parties and factions and possibly mustering a mass movement as a moral force for democracy, outside the political party system.
EDITORIAL IN THE AUSTRALIAN
While the regime is odious, Burma is stuck with it and the West should maintain a dialogue with the dictators, if only to discourage them from locking up Ms Suu Ki again. Despite being a national hero, she lacks the political resources to challenge the regime.
EDITORIAL IN INDONESIA'S KOMPAS
Suu Kyi has still a long way to go before being able to lead a democratic Burma. In this case, Burma is not alone. Indonesia, South Africa and South Korea also had to wait for decades before having democracy.
EDITORIAL IN BANGLADESH'S DAILY STAR
For the junta, it is important that it follow up on the democracy leader's release with moves to engage with her on political change in Myanmar. If it believes Aung San Suu Kyi has now been rendered ineffective, it will be making a mistake. The spirited manner in which her freedom was welcomed in global capitals is a patent demonstration of how indispensable she remains to the future of Myanmar.
