  • Determination of Rainwater Harvesting System in Mindat District
    ISSN 2319-8885 Vol.03,Issue.10 May-2014, Pages:1905-1911 www.semargroup.org, www.ijsetr.com Determination of Rainwater Harvesting System in Mindat District 1 2 JUE JUE , TIN TIN HTWE 1Dept of Civil Engineering, Mandalay Technological University, Mandalay, Myanmar, Email: [email protected]. 2Dept of Civil Engineering, Mandalay Technological University, Mandalay, Myanmar, Email: [email protected]. Abstract: This study is described about the determination of rainwater harvesting system in Mindat district, Chin State of Myanmar. Firstly, rainfall volume collected from the rooftop catchment is calculated using rational method and the existing roof catchment areas; 400 sq ft, 840 sq ft and 1200 sq ft are used to collect rain. Two types of roofing materials such as GI sheet and thatch are considered. The data length is ten years period from 2003 to 2012 and these data are recorded from department of Metrology and Hydrology. To calculate monthly water use (demand), daily water consumption for one person is taken as 15 gallons and six household members are considered in a family. 30 days in a month and 30 gallons of wastage as example for roof washing or for flushing out are considered. Comparing the demand and rainfall collected, 1200 sq ft roof catchment area with GI sheet roof in Mindat can give reliable rainwater storage. In Matupi, Kanpetlet and Paletwa, surplus rainwater is collected from GI sheet roofs of 840 sq ft and 1200 sq ft roof catchment areas. Rainfall runoff collected from the roof catchment of 400 sq ft does not meet to satisfy the demand. Secondly, surface runoff harvesting is considered to collect the rains on every catchment area where the rain falls.

  • Soil Quality of the Tea and Apple-Growing Sites in Mindat District, Chin State, Myanmar: a Preliminary Study
    Soil quality of tea and apple plantations in Myanmar Kwee and Soe ZEMLJISTE I BILJKA 70(1):27-40, 2021 Original paper DOI: 10.5937/ZemBilj2101027K Soil quality of the tea and apple-growing sites in Mindat District, Chin state, Myanmar: A preliminary study Yaung Kwee 1, 2, 3*, Khin Maw Maw Soe1 1Departments of Chemistry, Pakokku Univesity, Myaing Road, Pakokku 90401, Myanmar 2Department of Chemistry, University of Mandalay, University Drive, 73rd Mandalay, Myanmar 3Department of Chemistry, Universitas Airlangga, Surabaya 60115, Indonesia *Corresponding author: [email protected], Mobile: +959401513453 Abstract In this study, two sites from tea and apple growing sites were collected from Pyay village and Nine Mile village, Mindat district, Chin state of west Myanmar under a humid subtropical climate. The results of physicochemical properties of observed soils were neutral pH, favorable moisture, silty clay loam texture, very high content of organic carbon, organic matter and total nitrogen. However, the tea growing soil was very poor in phosphorus and potassium content. Moreover, both soils lack of available potassium. The content of heavy metals in both soils was not varied from each other and followed the order: Fe (iron) > Cu (copper) >Zn (zinc) > Pb (lead) > Cr (chromium) and was below the maximum allowed concentrations (MAC). Therefore, the studied soils are generally favorable for cultivation under the condition of application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. However, due to the regular application of fertilizers and pesticides, it is necessary to monitor these soils for PTE levels. Further research is recommended, which must include analyses of the physicochemical properties of soils to a two depths of 0-30 and 30-60 cm, especially for the area where fruit plants are grown.

No.24 2014 Community knowledge and attitude towards regional developmental requirements in remote townships of Chin state, Myanmar ―A questionnaire on sustainability and subsistence to overexploitation of natural resources― Saumya Nilmini Senavirathna1, HninWityi1, and Takeshi Fujino2 1Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Saitama University 255 Shimo-okubo, Sakura-ku, Saitama, Japan 338-8570 2Institute for Environmental Science and Technology, Saitama University 255 Shimo-okubo, Sakura-ku, Saitama, Japan 338-8570 Key words:Remote townships, Shifting cultivation, Myanmar Abstract In this study we examined the knowledge and awareness of 200 respondents in two local townships, Mindat and Kanpetlet in Chin state of Myanmar, regarding local environment issues and development requirements. Results indicated differences in knowledge and level of awareness between the two townships particularly regarding issues such as the reduction in fallow period, forest dependence, promoting tourism, protecting local identity and family planning requirements. These differences were found to be mainly due to the differences in economic and social status of the respondents between the two townships. Respondents in Mindat earn more and their education level is higher than in Kanpetlet. They are much more aware of natural environmental changes. In Kanpetlet, forest dependent subsistence is higher and the fallow period in shifting cultivation is shorter than in Mindat. Introducing effective cultivation practices with the required resources and knowledge will facilitate to increase their income while conserving the environment. The respondents have quite different opinions on the development requirements for increasing their earnings and uplifting their living standards. 1.

  • Earth Rights Abuses in Burma Exposed
    Gaining Ground: Earth Rights Abuses in Burma Exposed Earth Rights School of Burma Class of 2008 Preface People can create a better world if they have the desire, enthusiasm and knowledge to do so. Furthermore, unity of thought and unity of action are needed in the international community to bring about positive changes and sustainable development around the globe. In a long list of important goals, eradication of poverty and protection and promotion of human rights and environmental rights are top priorities. People power is pivotal and improving the connections among individuals, organizations and governments is essential. Greater knowledge is important at every level and every actor in the international community must strive to create a better world in the future. Of course, this improvement would come from both local and global actions. In fact, to my knowledge, the students and EarthRights School (ERS) itself are trying their best to cooperate and to coordinate with the international community for the above-mentioned noble tasks. By starting from localized actions, many ethnic youths from various areas of Burma come, study and have been working together at ERS. They exchange their experiences and promote knowledge and expertise not only during their school term but also after they graduate and through practical work that improves society. In Burma, according to the international communitys highly-regarded research and field documents, human rights violations are rampant, poverty is too high, environmental issues are neglected and good governance is non-existent. This may be a normal situation under military dictatorships around the world but it is not a permanent situation and history has proved that if democratic people have enough power, things will change sooner or later.

  • A Geographical Study on Population Density in Kyaukse Township (1999
    Mandalay University of Distance Education Research Journal Vol. 6, No. 1, 2015 A Geographical Study on Population Density in Kyaukse Township (1999-2014) Yu Yu Swe 1 Abstract Kyaukse Township lies in the Dry Zone of Central Myanmar. Topography of Kyaukse Township can be divided into Kyaukse Plain and the Yeyaman Range. Kyaukse is one of the densely populated townships in the Central Myanmar. The factors: (1) getting irrigation water from the Zawgyi and Panlaung Rivers; (2) lying on flat fertile alluvial plain, encourage the development and productivity of agriculture and population growth in Kyaukse Township. Population density of Kyaukse Township depends a little or more upon topography and agricultural condition. Therefore, the density patterns of Kyaukse Township are mostly concentrated on the flat plain regions. In this research, the population density and changing pattern of population centers are analyzed by the population centroid method. The results show that population centres of Kyaukse Township has been moving toward the southeast during the 1999-2014 year. According to the result by the population centroid method, today mean population center of Kyaukse Township is at the intersection of 96˙9' 32" East Longitude and 21˙34' 38" North Latitude. Most of the people are found gradually shifted towards the southeast direction from the center of Kyaukse Township. Many cultivated lands in the southeast of the township have been changed into residential areas. Hence, rural dwellers have been shifting towards the southeast from the point of the 1999. Key Words: Population; Density; Centroid; Population Center. Introduction Kyaukse Township is one of the townships of Mandalay Region in the Central Myanmar (Map 1).

  • Chapter Vi Summary, Conclusions And
    CHAPTER VI SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 6.1 Summary and conclusions This study was an attempt to analyze farmers’ strategies to achieve livelihood outcomes on post-monsoon cotton productivity and cotton-based cropping system of the selected areas under rainfed upland of Central Myanmar according to the sustainable livelihoods framework described by the U.K. Department for International Development (DFID) (1999). Accessibility of different five livelihood assets were major components of the framework along with their strategies and production constraints of cotton production was also determinant factors on yield of seed cotton. In this study, currently used management practices of cotton production were also investigated. The results of multiple regression to determine the effects of vital livelihood assets on seed cotton yield were also presented in this study. The selection of the study area was based on the major post-monsoon cotton growing area of Central Myanmar and this study was conducted in Kyaukse, Myittha and Wundwin townships under Mandalay Division. Sample respondents were selected by using multistage random sampling technique. A total of 150 farmers, 50 household heads in one village of each township were interviewed individually through the structured questionnaire for primary data. In order to obtain secondary data, the relevant information from cotton-based cropping system was collected from different government agencies under the Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation (MOAI). 103 Different types of descriptive statistical method were used to formulate percentage, frequency and average. This study used correlation matrix to investigate the multicollinearity of all independent variables and the relationship between the cotton yield and the key livelihood asset variables drawn from the results of correlation matrix was determined through the multiple regression analysis.
