    REPORT OF ASSESSMENT OF IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON VALUE CHAINS OF DURIAN IN KAWKAREIK AND THANTAUNGYI TOWNSHIPS OF MYANMAR October 2020 Report of Assessment of COVID-19 on Value Chains of Durian EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. Background and Methodology The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis has severely disrupted agricultural value chains and markets and has a significant impact on the economic performance of the agricultural sector. In order to effectively respond to the crisis, to mitigate negative impacts and contribute to economic recovery by the projects with funding support from the International Fund for Agriculture Development (IFAD), it is necessary to know the scope of the disruption, its direct and indirect consequences and potential areas/anchor points for interventions. For the above reasons, the Value Chain Capacity Building Network (VCB-N) proposes to conduct country-based assessments of the consequences of the COVID-19 crises. EMPOWER Consultancy Limited is commissioned to carry out this assessment with an overall objective of providing IFAD and its stakeholders impact of the COVID-19 crises on the economic and social performance of Durian value chains in Kawkareik and Thantaunggyi Townships of IFAD’s Eastern State project and formulating recommendations for short and mid-term level responses to mitigate negative impacts and contribute to recovery of these value chains. In order to meet the overall objectives, the specific objectives are set to: (1). examine the impact of affected chain performance such as income, poverty, food security and employment taking into account immediate and mid-term perspectives; (2). assess changes in trade arrangements, transaction costs and trade volumes and related economic consequences for chain actors; and (3).

Highlights • The humanitarian situation severely deteriorated throughout Kayah State, especially in Loikaw and Demoso Townships over the week and has resulted in the displacement of more than 70,000 people since 20 May 2021. • Clashes between the Karen National Union (KNU) and Myanmar Military Forces (MAF) continued in Kayin State and Eastern Bago. • Armed conflict, movement restrictions, landmine risks and displacement continue to severely impact communities, particularly in socio-economic terms. Commodity prices have increased, unemployment is high, and local populations are unable to continue their livelihoods activities. • In areas where fighting is more sporadic, Internally Displaced Populations (IDPs) remain in hiding due to the unpredictability of the situation and fear of further attacks, particularly airstrikes. • Displaced populations continue to have limited access to food, shelter, hygiene and sanitation.

The successful planning and implementation of the census activities, followed by the timely release of the provisional results in August 2014 and now the main results in May 2015, is a clear testimony of the Government’s resolve to publish all information collected from respondents in accordance with the Population and Housing Census Law No. 19 of 2013. It is my hope that the main census results will be interpreted correctly and will effectively inform the planning and decision-making processes in our quest for national development. The census structures put in place, including the Central Census Commission, Census Committees and Offices at all administrative levels and the International Technical Advisory Board (ITAB), a group of 15 experts from different countries and institutions involved in censuses and statistics internationally, provided the requisite administrative and technical inputs for the implementation of the census.

  • Dooplaya Situation Update: Kawkareik Township, January to October 2016
    Situation Update July 18, 2017 / KHRG # 16-92-S1 Dooplaya Situation Update: Kawkareik Township, January to October 2016 This Situation Update describes events occurring in Kawkareik Township, Dooplaya District during the period between January and October 2016, and includes issues regarding army base locations, rape, drugs, villagers’ livelihood, military activities, refugee concerns, development, education, healthcare, land and taxation. • In the last two months, a Burmese man from A--- village raped and killed a 17-year-old girl. The man was arrested and was sent to Tatmadaw military police. The man who committed the rape was also under the influence of drugs. • Drug abuse has been recognised as an ongoing issue in Dooplaya District. Leaders and officials have tried to eliminate drugs, but the drug issue remains. • Refugees from Noh Poe refugee camp in Thailand are concerned that they will face difficulties if they return to Burma/Myanmar because Bo San Aung’s group (DKBA splinter group) started fighting with BGF and Tatmadaw when the refugees were preparing for their return to Burma/Myanmar. The ongoing fighting will cause problems for refugees if they return. Local people residing in Burma/Myanmar are also worried for refugees if they return because fighting could break out at any time. • There are many different armed groups in Dooplaya District who collect taxes. A local farmer reported that he had to pay a rice tax to many different armed groups, which left him with little money after. Situation Update | Kawkareik Township, Dooplaya District (January to October 2016) The following Situation Update was received by KHRG in November 2016.
