HalliburtonWatch.org's 10-07 article summarizes Halliburton's energy development projects in Burma, including the notorious Yadana and Yetagun pipelines. According to Multinational Monitor, "credible evidence exists that several villages along the route were forcibly relocated or depopulated in the months before th production-sharing agreement was signed."
Revenue from the project helps prop up the existing oppressive military regime, which came to power after a coup in 1988 toppled the democratically elected government.
