Rights groups call on Total to suspend payments in Myanmar operations


PARIS, March 16 (Reuters): Total faced calls from rights groups on Tuesday to suspend payments on operations in Myanmar following a coup, after the oil group said it was worried about the situation while also highlighting the importance of its business there.

The French company, which has been in Myanmar since 1992, operates at the Yadana and Sein offshore fields, which supply Myanmar's domestic market via a pipeline built by national company Myanmar Oil and Gas Enterprise (MOGE).
