Myanmar Situation Update (28 June - 4 July 2021)
Myanmar Situation Update (28 June - 4 July 2021) Summary Myanmar ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi appeared in the special court in Naypyitaw on 29 June and the court accepted the two evidence documents submitted by the junta for the case charged under Section 505(b) to incite unrest in the country although the lawyers of Aung San Suu Kyi objected. Those two documents are NLD party statements issued on 7 and 13 of February after the NLD’s leaders have been detained. Her lawyer also expects the trial will run longer than scheduled, with the prosecution still to call nearly two dozen witnesses. The junta has been building strong high-tech surveillance tools that can be used for internal repression, many of which come from Western companies. An investigation conducted by the “Lighthouse Reports” revealed that those technologies include high tech software that can extract data from different devices and surveillance over the internet. More than 50,000 Karen people have been displaced since the beginning of the year. Local community groups expect that there is much more the international community can do to help as humanitarian as is not enough meeting the survival of the people who fled their villages and living in makeshift shelters. Indian media also reported that over 700 people from Myanmar, mostly civilians, have entered Mizoram in the past few weeks. Altogether 10,025 Myanmar nationals have so far sneaked into Mizoram following the military coup. Media also reported that the Myanmar military shells struck Magar Yang camp, home to over 1,600 internally displaced persons in Kachin State, along the China border.

A Study on the British Annexation of (Bhamo) Banmaw (1885-87)
64 Banmaw University Research Journal 2020, Vol. 11, No.2 A Study on the British Annexation of (Bhamo) Banmaw (1885-87) Khin Saw Oo Abstract The present research paper attempted to study the British Annexation of Banmaw (1885-87)”. The research paper present; why the British occupied Banmaw, what were causes to occupy Banmaw, how the British prepared to occupy Banmaw, and the conditions of Banmaw before and after the British annexation. Based on contemporary records, the paper was conducted. I believe that my research work will be a partial significant value for colonial period of Myanmar. Key words: British, annexation Introduction The total area of Banmaw township is 759.01 miles and locates on the left bank of (Irrawaddy) Ayeyarwaddy River. It is traditionally says that the word “Ban Maw” is belong from the Shan language “Man Maw”. The town lies about twelve miles distant in a straight line from the foot of the Kachin hills. During the reign of Myanmar Kings, the British had long been interested in the northern Myanmar, especially Banmaw which located at the east bank of Ayeyarwaddy. Therefore, Banmaw is the gate of Upper Myanmar and the port for trading, existed for centuries with Yunan Province of China. Before the British annexation of the whole Myanmar in 1885, they attempted to develop and control some parts of the Southern Silk road to reach Southern China, Banmaw and Myitkyina were the same important trading centres within Myanmar boundaries. A Study on the British Annexation of (Bhamo) Banmaw (1885-87) Banmaw Township locates between 23 54 and 24 42 N and between 96 53 and 93 24 E.
