Monks' Revolution in Rangoon, Burma (www.dvb.no)
Buddhist monks all over Burma are today making peaceful walks and launching boycotts on the military regime, in protest of Junta's recent cruel crack down on Monks peaceful demands for government efforts to relieve of poverty in Burma.
Monks' boycott means that they will not accept any donations from any military officials and will not do any religious rites for them; in essence all military officials will be shunned from all aspects of Buddhist religion. As 85% or more of Burmese population is Buddhist such a Buddhist religious boycott will very seriously damage regime's credibility.
