Dear BurmaNet reader,

Today's BurmaNet (Issue 2717) included an article from the Australian
satirical paper, the Chaser.

The article "Burmese have so much to teach us about human rights, says
Howard" is fictional and not based on any factual comments made by the
Australian Prime Minister. The satirical piece was a spoof on the
Australian government's     practice of providing human rights trainings
for Burmese soldiers.
