Executive Summary 1.1 The main purpose of this report is to update on the situation in Myanmar with regard to measures taken for the implementation of the UNCCD at the national level since its submission of the first national report in August 2000. 1.2 Myanmar acceded to the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) in January 1997. Even before Myanmar’s accession to UNCCD, measures relating to combating desertification have been taken at the local and national levels. In 1994, the Ministry of Forestry (MOF) launched a 3-year "Greening Project for the Nine Critical Districts" of Sagaing, Magway and Mandalay Divisions in the Dry Zone. This was later extended to 13 districts with the creation of new department, the Dry Zone Greening Department (DZGD) in 1997. 1.3 The Government has stepped up its efforts on preventing land degradation and combating desertification in recent years. The most significant effort is the rural area development programme envisaged in the current Third Short-Term Five-Year Plan (2001-2002 to 2005-2006). The rural development programme has laid down 5 main activities.

  • Chin Human Rights Association
    Introduction The following submissions details issues related to Freedom of Religion and Belief (FORB) relating primarily to the situation for the Chin minority/indigenous people in Chin State and Western Burma and in the current context of COVID-19 response and enforcement. These circumstances are however not limited to the Chin people but may also be reflected in the wider context of minority religious/ethno- religious status in Myanmar. National Legal Provisions The 2008 Constitution fails to provide adequate protection of freedom of religion or belief. Article 34 of the 2008 Constitution appears to guarantee freedom of religion or belief for all, but a list of qualifying conditions based on whether the religion does not undermine ‘public order’, ‘morality’, ‘health’ or ‘other provisions of this constitution’ makes it highly restrictive. Ultimately the result is that a vaguely defined idea of ‘public welfare’ trumps freedom of religion or belief in the 2008 Constitution. Moreover, the vague constitutional provision is subsequently contradicted by Article 361 which states ‘The Union recognizes the special position of Buddhism as the faith professed by the great majority of the citizens of the Union’. In applying a ‘special status’ toward Buddhism into the 2008 constitution, policies which discriminate against religious minorities in the name of the protection of Buddhism are legitimated. The Religious Conversion Law, one of the package of bills for the “protection of race and religion,” originally drafted by the extreme religious group, Ma Ba Tha, and subsequently signed into law by President Thein Sein in 2015, was widely opposed as contravening Myanmar’s State obligations as party to the UN Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination against Women and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child are designed to regulate monogamy, marriage, birth spacing, and religious conversion.1 Land ownership for religious purposes remains as discriminatory under the National League for Democracy (NLD) as it did during the SPDC military rule in the 1990s.
