KUALA LUMPUR (Feb. 9) XINHUA - Malaysia's International Muslim Action Network (IMAN) Friday launched an anti-American campaign, calling for the boycott of all products and

services from America in a protest against America's support for Israel oppression against the Palestinians.

IMAN, a non-governmental organization base in Pulau Pinang, northern Malaysia, has published more than 100,000 pamphlets listing down the goods and services from America

which should be boycotted, Bernama news agency quoted IMAN's Board of Trustees Chairman S.M. Mohd Idris as saying.

Among the products listed for boycott include Coca-Cola, Pepsi, McDonald's, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Kellogg's Corn Flake, Amway, Caltex, Esso, Mobil, Levi's, Calvin Klein and

Barbie.

According to the Malaysian national news agency, apart from the distribution of the pamphlets, IMAN will also hold various campaigns to raise awareness among the public on the

oppression mounted against the Palestinians.
