    First Standard Allocation (2021) Strategy Paper

    First Standard Allocation (2021) Strategy Paper DEADLINE: Tuesday, 1 June 2021 (09:00am Yangon time) Allocation Summary This document lays the strategy to allocating funds from the Myanmar Humanitarian Fund (MHF) First Standard Allocation in response to the protracted humanitarian crises in Myanmar, in line with the Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) 2021. The allocation will address the underfunded situation of humanitarian requirements. By 20 April 2021, only 12.5 per cent of the HRP 2021 requirements had been met1. Looking at the most underfunded sectors as per HRP requirements, Education in emergencies (EiE) has not been funded yet, followed by water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) with 1.3 per cent of requirements met; and shelter, non-food items and camp coordination and camp management (Shelter/NFI/CCCM) with 1.7 per cent reached. This standard allocation will make US$10 million available to support coordinated humanitarian assistance and protection, covering displaced people and other vulnerable crisis-affected people in Chin, Rakhine, Kachin and Shan states and the south-eastern part of Myanmar.2 COVID-19 related actions will be mainstreamed throughout the response to the humanitarian needs. In areas identified by the HRP, additional emergency response for people with humanitarian needs as a consequence of the new context since 1 February 2021 will be considered, as per needs assessment and analysis provided during the prioritization process. Additional emergency response beyond the areas indicated in the HRP 2021, particularly urban and peri-urban areas, as a consequence of the developments since 1 February 2021, will not be included under this allocation.

    Myanmar: Ethnic Politics and the 2020 General Election

    MYANMAR POLICY BRIEFING | 23 | September 2020 Myanmar: Ethnic Politics and the 2020 General Election KEY POINTS • The 2020 general election is scheduled to take place at a critical moment in Myanmar’s transition from half a century under military rule. The advent of the National League for Democracy to government office in March 2016 was greeted by all the country’s peoples as the opportunity to bring about real change. But since this time, the ethnic peace process has faltered, constitutional reform has not started, and conflict has escalated in several parts of the country, becoming emergencies of grave international concern. • Covid-19 represents a new – and serious – challenge to the conduct of free and fair elections. Postponements cannot be ruled out. But the spread of the pandemic is not expected to have a significant impact on the election outcome as long as it goes ahead within constitutionally-appointed times. The NLD is still widely predicted to win, albeit on reduced scale. Questions, however, will remain about the credibility of the polls during a time of unprecedented restrictions and health crisis. • There are three main reasons to expect NLD victory. Under the country’s complex political system, the mainstream party among the ethnic Bamar majority always win the polls. In the population at large, a victory for the NLD is regarded as the most likely way to prevent a return to military government. The Covid-19 crisis and campaign restrictions hand all the political advantages to the NLD and incumbent authorities. ideas into movement • To improve election performance, ethnic nationality parties are introducing a number of new measures, including “party mergers” and “no-compete” agreements.
