  • Country Reports on Human Rights Practices - 2005 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor March 8, 2006
    Burma Page 1 of 24 2005 Human Rights Report Released | Daily Press Briefing | Other News... Burma Country Reports on Human Rights Practices - 2005 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor March 8, 2006 Since 1962, Burma, with an estimated population of more than 52 million, has been ruled by a succession of highly authoritarian military regimes dominated by the majority Burman ethnic group. The current controlling military regime, the State Peace and Development Council (SPDC), led by Senior General Than Shwe, is the country's de facto government, with subordinate Peace and Development Councils ruling by decree at the division, state, city, township, ward, and village levels. In 1990 prodemocracy parties won more than 80 percent of the seats in a generally free and fair parliamentary election, but the junta refused to recognize the results. Twice during the year, the SPDC convened the National Convention (NC) as part of its purported "Seven-Step Road Map to Democracy." The NC, designed to produce a new constitution, excluded the largest opposition parties and did not allow free debate. The military government totally controlled the country's armed forces, excluding a few active insurgent groups. The government's human rights record worsened during the year, and the government continued to commit numerous serious abuses. The following human rights abuses were reported: abridgement of the right to change the government extrajudicial killings, including custodial deaths disappearances rape, torture, and beatings of

  • Return Assessments - Bago East Myanmar South East Operation - UNHCR Hpa-An 30 June 2017
    Return Assessments - Bago East Myanmar South East Operation - UNHCR Hpa-An 30 June 2017 Background information Since June 2013, UNHCR has been piloting a system to assess spontaneous returns in the Southeast of Myanmar, a process that may start in the absence of an organized Voluntary Repatriation operation. Total Assessments 9 A verified return village, therefore, is a village where UNHCR field staff have confirmed there are refugees and/or IDPs who have returned since January 2012 with the intention of remaining Verified Return Villages permanently. During the assessments, communities are also asked whether their village is a refugee 4 village of origin, by definition a village that is home to people residing in a refugee camp in Thailand. A village where UNHCR completes an assessment can be both a verified return village and a refugee Refugee Villages of Origin 3 village of origin, as the two are not mutually exclusive. Using a “do no harm” approach based around community level discussion, the return assessment collect information about the patterns and needs of returnees in the Southeast. The project does not, however, attempt to represent the total number of returnees in a state, or the region as a whole. The returnee monitoring project has been underway in Kayah State, Mon State and Tanintharyi Region since June 2013, and expanded to Kayin State in December 2013.

  • Report Lingering Shadows Communal
    LINGERING SHADOWS COMMUNAL TENSIONS IN WEST BAGO REGION January 2016 This document is published by the Center for Diversity and National Harmony with the support of the United Nations Peacebuilding Fund. Publisher : Center for Diversity and National Harmony No. 12, Shweli Street, Kamayut Township, Yangon. Cover Photo : Thiri Tin Design & Layout : Kaung Htet Zaw Offset : Publication Date : December 2015 © All rights reserved Acknowledgements: As Myanmar’s transition continues, an undercurrent of communal violence threatens the country’s progress. Sporadic outbreaks of violence since 2012 have cast a shadow over swathes of Myanmar, including the West Bago Re- gion, the focus of this report. In recognition of the challenge posed by this violence, the Center for Diversity and National Harmony (CDNH) was estab- lished to coordinate stakeholders working on interfaith and communal issues throughout Myanmar and to conduct research on complex national issues. As part of its mission to share knowledge and stimulate discussion, CDNH also organizes trainings, workshops and conferences on conflict prevention, rule of law, interfaith dialogues, social and political tolerance and civic education. The Early Warning and Early Response (EWER) Program of CDNH was established in an attempt to provide timely collection and analysis of infor- mation in order to mitigate the risk of violence. As part of this effort, the EWER team undertook an in-depth analysis of the West Bago Region in order to understand the root causes of 2013’s communal violence from an EWER perspective. This report provides an analysis of the past designed to inform future efforts at conflict prevention in West Bago and elsewhere.
