Social Structure of Meitei-Pangal (Muslims) of Manipur Abstract Thesis
SOCIAL STRUCTURE OF MEITEI-PANGAL (MUSLIMS) OF MANIPUR ABSTRACT THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF 3 a dot of |pl|U0S0pl|y SOCIOLOGY By RAJIYA SHAHANI UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF PROF. NOOR MOHAMMAD DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY AND SOCIAL WORK ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 2006 ABSTRACT In the present piece of research work, the basic institutions of Meitei-Pangal of Manipur have been analyzed from structural functional perspectives. Though old, the structural functional approach is a dominant sociological perspective. The background of the structural functionalism is found in the works of A. Comte, H. Spencer and E. Durkheim. Comte applied this perspective in his work, more prominently in his theory of organicism. H. Spencer also adopted organicism which led him to look at the social whole and the contribution of parts to the whole. E.Durkheim's interest in the social facts reflects his interest in the social organicism and their interrelationships and impact in the society. The major concern of these perspectives is the analysis of the structure and functions of a society that a social system needs to survive. Parsons is considered one of the giants of this perspectives. His structural-functional analysis becomes conspicuous when he says that - four basic conditions have to be met if any social system is to operate at all. These are : adaptation, goal attainment , integration and latency . These conditions are fulfilled by four institutions viz. economy, polity, kinship and culture. The Meitei-Pangal community of Manipur also meets these basic conditions of the social system . Islam is their religion. -

China, India, and Myanmar: Playing Rohingya Roulette?
CHAPTER 4 China, India, and Myanmar: Playing Rohingya Roulette? Hossain Ahmed Taufiq INTRODUCTION It is no secret that both China and India compete for superpower standing in the Asian continent and beyond. Both consider South Asia and Southeast Asia as their power-play pivots. Myanmar, which lies between these two Asian giants, displays the same strategic importance for China and India, geopolitically and geoeconomically. Interestingly, however, both countries can be found on the same page when it comes to the Rohingya crisis in Myanmar’s Rakhine state. As the Myanmar army (the Tatmadaw) crackdown pushed more than 600,000 Rohingya refugees into Bangladesh, Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi’s government was vociferously denounced by the Western and Islamic countries.1 By contrast, China and India strongly sup- ported her beleaguered military-backed government, even as Bangladesh, a country both invest in heavily, particularly on a competitive basis, has sought each to soften Myanmar’s Rohingya crackdown and ease a medi- ated refugee solution.

Since the Myanmar military seized power in September 1988, both the Asian pow- ers endeavoured to expand their influence in the reconfigured Myanmar to protect their national interests, including heavy investments in Myanmar, particularly in the Rakhine state. -

Kaladan Project : Opportunities and Challenges
www.capsindia.org IN FOCUS 19 NOV 2014 KALADAN PROJECT : OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES Col GS Puyam Senior Fellow, CAPS The Kaladan Multi-Modal Transit Transport Project, known as Kaladan Project, will link India’s seaport of Kolkata with its landlocked north eastern states through Mizoram by traversing Arakan and Chin States in Myanmar through riverine and highway transport systems. It is a strategically important project which will provide an alternate connectivity to North Eastern Region (NER) other than the Siliguri corridor. During the recent visit of PM of India Narendra Modi to Myanmar on 11 November 2014, regional connectivity between the two countries specially Kaladan Project and India - Myanmar - Thailand trilateral highway came up for review. It is also aimed at forging closer ties with its eastern neighbours perhaps concerned by the expansion of China’s economic and strategic influence in Myanmar and South East Asian region. However, there are concerns that the project would bring irreparable ecological damage, as well as apprehension in the minds of locals of losing their livelihood from the river. Also, will it truly achieve the aim of linking North East India, as State capitals of North Eastern states presently are not well linked to each other. Unless there is a simultaneous plan of transport development in the region, Kaladan Project on a standalone mode perhaps may fall short of huge expectations. Kaladan Project On 02 Apr 2008, Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), Govt. of India entered into a Framework Agreement with the Govt. of Myanmar to facilitate implementation of www.capsindia.org IN FOCUS 19 NOV 2014 the project. -
Terms of Reference Are Focused on the Study 2: the Kaladan River and Its Watershed Management in Kyauktaw and Paletwa Townships
TERMS OF REFERENCE Assessment study on the Kaladan River and its watershed management in Kyauktaw and Paletwa townships, Myanmar within the “Enhancing livelihood, income generation and resilience of the vulnerable population in South Chin and North Rakhine” project April 2017 Funded by the European Union Gret – ToRs for an assessment study on the Kaladan river and its watershed management practices in Kyauktaw and Paletwa Townships - “Enhancing livelihood, income generation and resilience of the vulnerable population in South Chin and North Rakhine” project Since 1995, GRET has been working in Myanmar in the fields of agriculture development, nutrition, microfinance and water & sanitation in Yangon, Chin and Rakhine States, in the Dry zone and in Ayeyarwaddy Delta. A representation office is established in Yangon to supervise actions and work in relationships with donors, authorities and partners. GRET and its partners are now starting a multi-sectorial project in 3 Townships of Myanmar: Paletwa and Matupi in Southern Chin state and Kyauktaw in Northern Rakhine state, for 4 years (October 2016 – September 2020). The villages of Kyauktaw and Paletwa Townships will be mostly selected in the areas along the Kaladan River, in the Northern part of Kyauktaw and Southern part of Paletwa, to have a coherent sub-project area. 1. The context Rakhine state is the second most populous State after Shan with a population of 3.1 million. Rakhine’s main economic activity is agriculture and fisheries. Poor infrastructure, particularly road, poor connectivity to the rest of Myanmar, lack of electricity, poor communication facilities are perceived to be major challenges for Rakhine State’s socio-economic development. -
