From The Guardian-
[Burmese] embassies in the UK, Thailand, Australia and Singapore [and all around the world] have all been targeted by the "Panties for Peace" campaign, co-ordinated by an activist group based in Chiang Mai, Thailand. [In this campaign, activists mail female underwear to Burmese embassies all around the world].The [maneuver] is a calculated insult to the junta and its leader, General Than Shwe. Superstitious junta members believe that any contact with female undergarments - clean or dirty - will sap them of their power, said Jackie Pollack, a member of the Lanna Action for Burma Committee.
