Introduction Rice is the most important crop in Myanmar for both a staple crop and an export item. In FY 2015, rice is sown 17.7milacre and harvested acre. The yield is 3.9 t/ha and total amount of paddy production is 26.4milt. However, growth of the yield as well as total production of rice is stagnated since FY 2009 (Fig.1). (1)Varietal Information on Rice Production of Burma 1988, Ministry of Agriculture and Forests, (2) Agricultural Statistics (1985/86 to 1995/96), (1989/90 to 1999/00) and (1997/98 to 2009/2010) Central Statistical Organization, Ministry of National Planning and Economic Development, (3) Myanmar Statistical Yearbook 2015, Central Statistical Organization, Ministry of National Planning and Economic Development Fig.1 Rice production in Myanmar The government of Myanmar (MOALI: Ministry of Agriculture Livestock and Irrigation) recognized that the deterioration of seed quality had been one of the major cause of the rice yield stagnant, then requested the government of Japan to provide technical support for seed sector improvement in 2009. The preliminary survey was conducted in 2010 and the government of Myanmar and the government of Japan agreed upon implementation of the technical cooperation project on "Development of Participatory Multiplication and Distribution System of Quality Rice Seed" so as to strengthen seed multiplication and distribution system in Ayeyarwady Region through enhancing capacity development of human resources of MOALI. The Record of Discussions (R/D) outlines agreements of both parties concerning to the project (Annex 1). It is important to note that definition of the quality seed in this project is genetically pure seed that meets the seed standard in Myanmar. The project covers entire seed flow from Breeder Seed (BS), Foundation Seed (FS) and Registered Seed (RS) to Certified Seed (CS) (Fig.2). Therefore, the project activities have been conducted in close collaboration with Department of Agricultural 1 Research (DAR), and Seed Division & Extension Division of Department of Agriculture (DOA). Among these offices under the MOALI, Director of Seed Div. is appointed as the project director and is responsible for taking initiative to lead the project. The location of the project sites are scattered in wide area from north, Nay Pyi Taw to south, Yangon and to west, Ayeyarwady (Fig.3).In addition to the activities mentioned above, the project has also conducted marketing activities to promote a CS sale which has been deemed as a bottle neck of the seed flow. Fig.2 The Project outline and Seed Follow Fig.3 The Location of the Project Sites 2 Ⅱ．Activities and Outcomes of the Project The purpose of the project is to establish participatory multiplication and distribution system of quality rice seed is established in Ayeyarwady delta area. The Joint Terminal Evaluation was conducted in February 2016 and the evaluation team concluded that the purpose of the project was moderately achieved based on the investigation into the project activities, input, output and achievements. The result of the evaluation was reported for approval at the Joint Coordination Committee held in Nay Pyi Taw on February 2016 (Annex 9-7). This report, therefore, focuses on not only the major achievement reported by the Joint Terminal Evaluation Team but also highlight other important achievement made till the very end of the project. 1. Base Line Survey (BLS) In order to discuss project activities in detail, the Project conducted BLS in the project site; Labutta, Myaungmya and Hinthada townships in Ayeyarwady Region in December 2011 (Table 1). Total of six hundred (600) farmers including seed growers were interviewed in corporation with planning Div., DOA. The survey revealed that more than 80 % of farmers use self-saved seed for paddy production and approximately 90 % of farmers replaced seeds within three years (Table 2 & 3) through purchasing good seeds from neighbor. However, CS was not available in these three townships. With due analysis of the BLS survey result, top nine (9) common yet popular varieties among farmers in three townships were selected as the targeted varieties of the project (Table 4). These varieties are also common in the nationwide and share more than 50 % of total sowing area in Myanmar at present. Table 1.

    探索東南亞宗教文化之多元性： 交流、在地化、融合與衝突 Exploring Religio-cultural Pluralism in Southeast Asia: Intercommunion, Localization, Syncretisation and Conflict 林長寬 主編 Nabil Chang-Kuan Lin, Ed. 國立成功大學文學院 多元文化研究中心 A Journey of Animus? Christianized Karens and Recollections of Karen-Burman Animosity 289 A Journey of Animus? Christianized Karens and Recollections of Karen-Burman Animosity 「仇 視」之旅：基督宗教化 的 Karen 族 群 與 Karen ‒ Burman 族裔間「敵 意」 歷史 回顧 Decha Tangseefa∗ 摘要 就研究論文的寫作而言，本論文試圖呈現另類的途徑，即結合「講歷史」 與「讀世界」的途徑，以傳統連結後結構主義，並以 Walter Benjamin 的哲理 闡釋 Karen 人與 Burman 人兩族群的關係。本文旨在論述緬甸國內兩個族群： Karen 與 Burman（緬）族群之間的「敵視過程」，時間界定從阿瓦王國到英國 殖民統治，到後來緬甸獨立止。本論文的論述分為三個層次：首先，談論 Karen 人如何透過其基督宗教化，從一個沒有教育且文盲轉變為受教育識字的族 群。第二，解析這些基督宗教化受過教育的 Karen 人如何強化下階層 Karen 族人與掌權的緬族人之間的敵視；而且由於英國殖民與基督宗教化的關係， 使得許多 Karen 族人脫離下階層社會，甚至開始掌權。第三，緬族與 Karen 族之間的仇視長久以來存在於泰緬邊界地區，即所謂的泰國難民營內外，特 別是在 Karen 人掌權的 Blae Koh 營地，任何講緬甸語的族群在此地區的生活 都比以前更加支離破碎，因 為 Karen 人會以耳監控，形成所謂的「聽覺政治」。 簡言之，本文整合上述三種概念：記憶、宗教與種族，加以解析論述這一種 衝突。基本上，本文雖然依據「Benjaminism」學派史學理論 (Benjaminian historiography)做論述，但是刻意模糊人文學科中各領域之間的界限，如歷史、 人類學以及政治學等學科理論。 ∗ Associate Professor, Center for Southeast Asian Studies (CSEAS), Kyoto University（京都大學東南 亞研究中心副教授） 290 Exploring Religio-cultural Pluralism in Southeast Asia Memory of Animus: An Introduction1 It was the Christmas Eve at Palaw village between Tavoy and Mergui toward the end of Burma’s independent year of 1948. As villagers began their worship and celebration before midnight, grenades were thrown in the church by Burmese police.

    IMPERCEPTIBLE NAKED-LIVES & ATROCITIES: FORCffiLY DISPLACED PEOPLES & THE THAI-BURMESE IN-BETWEEN SPACES A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI'I IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN POLITICAL SCIENCE MAY 2003 By Decha Tangseefa Dissertation Committee: Michael J. Shapiro, Chairperson Manfred Henningsen Sankara Krishna Nevzat Soguk Leslie E. Sponsel Acknowledgements When I was in the Burman-Karen war zones, in a gathering of forcibly displaced Karen, one of them asked me what made me decide to pursue this research. I responded to him that it had to do with one story and one incident. The story began with my illiterate mother's life-journey. When she was twelve, she migrated to Thailand with her "owner" boss after being sold to that family three years earlier by her fisher parents living in a seashore village of San Thou, in southeast China. Growing up listening to her stories of suffering, I had invariably felt anguished. But when I started to learn more about the forcibly displaced peoples along the Thai-Burmese border zones, I began to wonder why, as a Thai citizen, I knew almost nothing about them, and also why Thai society had rarely been concerned with the plight of at least one hundred thousand peoples living in a string of "camps" along the border zones and more than one million "illegal" laborers roaming in the country. The more I learnt about the tormenting stories of the forcibly displaced from Burma, the more my mother's stories paled.
