Sudanese women ban sex in effort to halt war Thousands join Lysistrata-style strike, reports Vivien Morgan in Khartoum

Morgan, Vivien

Ahmed, Samira
2002
Hence the Lysistrata-style sex strike. There are direct parallels with Aristophanes's play, in which Lysistrata's disgust with war brings about a scheme to force the men of Greece to the peace table by denying them sex. Mrs [Samira Ahmed] has been involved as an adviser to women's initiatives: getting women from southern Sudan to try to resolve practical problems over access to water and land rights. It had, she said, been effective in raising the profile of women. Mrs Ahmed is also helping grassroots women's groups that are trying to organise better girls' education, improve social and economic conditions, and ensure the rights of women and children. Sudan has still not ratified the United Nations convention to eliminate discrimination against women. The problems of abduction, the use of child soldiers and violence against women continue to concern them, even during this period of ceasefire.

In bondage on the road to Mandalay
1996
Under the midday sun a small group of Burmese labour by the roadside, clearing gutters and rebuilding embankments. To tourists on their way to the Sagaing pagoda in minibuses with tinted windows, they do not merit a second glance. But these men ar e working at gunpoint. A soldier stands guard over them. This is the reality of life in Burma for hundreds and thousands of people - forced into unpaid work, to polish and prettify the country for a tourist boom in 1996, designated the Year of Myanmar, as Burma styles itself. Starved of international funding since the economic embargo by the World Bank and others, in response to the 1988 military takeover by the State Law and Order Restoration Council, the government seeks to lure foreign-currency spenders, in the form of tourists, But the infrastructure is run- down; the roads unsuitable for tourist coaches, the railways slow and unreliable - you can wait at Rangoon for two days before the train leaves for Mandalay - and the archaeological sites and beauty spots, not up to accommodating mass tourism.
