Republic of the Union of Myanmar Anti-Terrorism Central Committee Declaration of Terrorist Groups Notification No 2/2021 12th Waning of Tagu 1383 ME 8 May 2021 The Anti-Terrorism Central Committee has issued this order with the approval of the State Administration Council in exercising sub-section (e) of Section 6 and sub-section (b) of Section 72 of the Counter-Terrorism Law. 1. Unlawful Committee Representing Pyidaungsu Hluttaw-CRPH and National Unity Government-NUG formed by CRPH constantly incited Civil Disobedience Movement-CDM participants to commit violent acts. Many riots occurred in many places of the country due to their incitements. They perpetrated bombing, arson, manslaughter, and intimidation to disrupt the state administrative machinery due to the influence of the leaders of CRPH and NUG. Moreover, NUG established People Defence Force-PDF. Violent acts occurred in the name of regional defence forces instigated by NUG and PDF. It is found that their acts to join CDM, threatening non-CDMs, inciting students and teachers not to go to schools, supporting terrorist acts and perpetrating such terrorist acts violate Section 3 (b) and Sub-section 13 of the Counter-Terrorism Law – acts with the intent to cause fear in public, to force Government or any internal and external organization to do an illegitimate act or to refrain from doing a lawful act, and other acts, stipulated by the Pyidaungsu Hluttaw Law No 23 on 4 June 2014. 2. Therefore, unlawful associations – Committee Representing Pyidaungsu Hluttaw-CRPH, National Unity Government-NUG, People Defence Force-PDF and all their subordinates have been declared as terrorist groups.

  • PACT Diesel Minigrid Study10
    Enabling Electricity Access in Myanmar Diesel Mini Grid Assessment, november 2016 U Kyaw Thu comes home at 6pm a2er spending the day at his farm growing lenls and sesame. A diesel engine starts growling in the background and the street lamps light up. Some of his friends and neighbors switch on their television sets while the children open their books to make best use of these 2 hours before the village plunges into darkness. Aer 9pm, while the village prepares to sleep and the diesel engine stops, children light up candles in their homes to study for another few hours so that they do not have to spend their lives being farmers in this darkness of these villages in Myanmar. Through this assessment, Pact Myanmar seeks to understand the struggle, needs, ingenuity and outlook of villagers seeking to gain access to electricity in Myanmar and who have established diesel mini grids in their villages. We explore U Kyaw Thu’s village, Kone, which lies in Seikphyu Towhship and another 9 villages in Magway Region to understand how the village community has collaborated to establish basic electrifica:on and whether there could be ways to improve the systems and provide electricity for not only ligh:ng but also produc:ve use, which could accelerate the overall village development. Mandalay Yoma About Pact Myanmar Pact Myanmar’s programming aims to fundamentally improve people’s lives to affect positive material impact on Myanmar’s development. We do this by operating simultaneously at scale and at the village level to maximize impact. We believe passionately in community involvement in designing solutions to everyday problems.

Tin Htut Aung 1. INTRODUCTION The Palaeolithic cultural assemblage of Myanmar offers two main reasons to motivate archaeologists’ interest. The first is the location of the country, which lies at an intermediate geographical position between South and Southeast Asia. Ever since scholars discovered the remains of Homo erectus in both China and Indonesia, Myanmar has been considered as one of the possible early human migration routes from continental to insular Southeast Asia. This was the main reason the American Southeast Asiatic Expedition for Early Man conducted work in the central belt of the country (de Terra et al., 1943: 267). Moreover, recent studies (Oppenheinmer, 2009; Marwick, 2009) based on genetic (Macaulay et al., 2005; Li et al., 2015) and geographic analyses (Field, Petraglia, and Lahr, 2007) have proposed that Myanmar was likely as one of the important routes for early human dispersal from west to southeast in Asia. The second reason is the stone tool assemblages of Myanmar themselves, since these tools are attributed to the Palaeolithic, and they play an important role in correlating archaeological data with early human activities and migration.

  • Critical Study of Wall Painting in Yesagyo Township
    Critical Study of Wall Painting in Yesagyo Township Tin Lin Phyo* Abstract Ancient paintings of Myanmar, according to the findings of this paper emphasized on the wall-paintings of pagodas in Yesagyo region, can be deemed of very high standard. It can roughly be claimed that the quality of ancient Myanmar paintings, especially paintings from Bagan and Kongbaung periods, can compete with or at least to be on a par with any ancient paintings from Southeast Asia region. This paper is mainly about to study and classify the ancient wall-paintings of Yesagyo region, which vary from Bagan (1044 to 1287), Ava (1364- 1555), and Kongbaung (1752-1885) periods, particularly from the distinctive painting styles of each periods and the gradual and periodical changes in those paintings found in Yesagyo region. By studying the ancient wall paintings, the way the culture of Myanmar and the attire of ancient Myanmar people evolved in different ancient dynasties mentioned before can generally be understood. It is also found out that the ancient wall paintings of Bagan and Kongbaung eras are superior and predominant. It can be stated that ancient wall paintings found in the pagodas of Yesagyo region were drawn not only to be used as decoration on the walls but also to educate the folks about the Buddhism, to become familiar with the teachings of the Buddha, and to honor, venerate, revere and worship the Buddha. Key Words - Wall painting, Bagan, Ava, Kongbaung, Dressing customs, Buddhism Introduction Yesagyo township is a township of Pakokku District in the Magway Region of central Myanmar.

  • Magway Region Fieldtrip: Coordinator Report
    Shelter Cluster Myanmar MYANMAR CENTRAL AREA FLOODS RESPONSE ShelterCluster.org Coordinating Humanitarian Shelter MAGWAY REGION FIELDTRIP: COORDINATOR REPORT Monday 12th of October 2105 1 Summary of Key Findings Overview The Floods Response Regional Shelter Cluster Coordination Team has prepared this report following a field trip to Magway from 1st to the 3rd October 2015. Pwintbyu, Pakokku Townships were visited as well as Magway Town itself. The reason for the visit was to meet local government, International and local NGOs working in the area to get a better idea of both shelter and recovery needs in Magway Region. The coverage of iNGOs in Magway region is limited to the most affected townships. Shelter kit distributions (including 2 tarpaulins, mosquito net, rope and knife) were distributed at the first stage to the most vulnerable to cover the most essential needs. For the shelter context only a few iNGOs are based in Magway region: MRCS, Save the Children, World Vision, Action Aid and ADRA. Key findings - Limited iNGO response. - High need to support iNGO/NGO at township level (DRR training, Sphere Standards, Fund raising). - Focus on most affected villages especially to those which are relocated or lost their land (safe location). - Shelter assistance must go hand in hand with DRR. - Technical guidance (for reconstruction – basic guidelines for how to build a house). - Extra support needed to relocate female headed HHs, and those with disabilities. - Livelihood and adequate sanitation facilities are of significant concerns. - Health – more mosquitoes as a result of increased standing water; need for more mosquito nets everywhere. Health assistance needed for vulnerable population (pregnant women, children, disabled people, elderly people).
