Rings are displayed at a jewelry fair in Bangkok October 11, 2007. Cartier has joined Tiffany & Co in boycotting gems like rubies and sapphires from Myanmar after the country's military rulers carried out a bloody crackdown on a peaceful pro-democracy protest. But in neighboring Thailand, where the majority of Myanmar's gems are bought and sold, the stone merchants have yet to be put off business with Myanmar's military junta. REUTERS/Arthur Jones Dionio
