According to this analysis, Myebon and Pauktaw have lost 22 and 43 percent of their mangroves over the course of the reference period, signifying an alarming rate of loss. On the other hand by 1988, Minbya and Sittwe had already lost most of their mangroves and in fact experienced modest gains during the reference period. In order to understand the drivers and dynamics behind these observed changes, the remote sensing was followed up by a review of secondary data and primary data collection, through participatory assessments, in six villages across the project area. These exercises indicate that the major causes for the losses in mangroves in Myebon and Pauktaw were ambiguities over land tenure and corruption, an overall increase in extensive shrimp and rice farms, as well as ongoing firewood collection for domestic use. Additional factors are the cumulative impact of natural disasters as well as the repercussions of recent conflict. Those most affected by the mangrove degradation include fishers and shrimp farmers who have experienced a serious decline in their primary means of livelihoods. In addition, partly due to deforestation, villagers in the area are now significantly more exposed to the threat of natural disasters, especially in terms of cyclones and flooding as well as ongoing riverbank and shoreline erosion. The report concludes by recommending that actors working on mangrove ecosystems in the state, more specifically to: Work to raise the knowledge and awareness of local people on the importance of protecting the ecosystem on which they depend. Investigate broader social, economic and ecological contexts of mangroves in Rakhine state as well as in Myanmar more generally, with specific focuses on issues such as land tenure, priority areas for protection and the potential of community forestry and ecological mangrove restoration. Investigate options for long term financing for mangrove protection, in particular the option of carbon funding. 2 A Socio-Economic Assessment of Mangroves Areas in North Rakhine State CONTENTS SUMMARY ................................................................................................................................................. 2 List of Acronyms ............................................................................................................................................... 5 PRA Villages ............................................................................................................................................... 5 List of Figures ................................................................................................................................................... 5 List of Maps....................................................................................................................................................... 6 List of Tables..................................................................................................................................................... 6 1.

  • 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.

Hussain (ed.), South Asia in Global Power Rivalry, Global Political Transitions, https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-13-7240-7_4 82 H. A. TAUFIQ China’s and India’s support for Myanmar is nothing new. 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.

Democracy is “a form of government in which the ​ people have the authority to choose their governing legislation.” However, the values and standards of democracy have not yet been established in Burma and the people’s authority over their daily lives and fundamental rights is fading. It is clearly shown that Burma is deviating from the path of democracy as those who exercise their right to freedom of speech and expression which is a fundamental right in democratization, face not only oppression and restrictions but arbitrary detentions and arrests. This September, freedom of speech and expression became more severely restricted. A total of 34 students and members of student unions from Rangoon, Mandalay, Meiktila Monywa, Pakokku and Pyay Townships were charged under Section 19 of PAPPL or Section 505(a)(b) of the Penal Code or Section 25 of the Natural Disaster Management Law for staging protests in related to the conflict in Arakan. Among them, 23 students were formally arrested and one was sentenced. In addition to this, four civilians were arrested. Moreover, Sithu Aung a.k.a Saung Kha was fined under Section 19 of PAPPL for protesting to reinstate internet services in Arakan and Chin states.
