School has been closed in war zone

Due to the continual fighting between the KIA and the Burmese Military in Northern Shan State especially in Ta’ang autonomy areas as well as in seven villages, the primary schools in these regions have been closed since the first week of December, 2011.
“As my children missed school, they have to repeat the same class next year. We don’t know what to do because the teachers are not coming and the local education minster hasn’t tried to resolve the problem even though they are due to take their final exams this month” explained by a parent of a student.
During the academic year of 2011-2012, students only studied from June until the end of July because of the fighting in this area. The teachers were also afraid and went back their homes. Most of teachers are from central Burma. After they left, some schools closed and some are still hoping for their return.
In seven Ta’ang villages, they are over 200 students missing out on school, among them are: Panlong village with 60 students, Mansar village with 18 students, Manyoung village with 20 students, Hkauoi with 6 students and Manmaung village with 20 students.
Although the final exam will held in February 2012, U Thin Ngwe, who takes responsibility as local education minister of Mantong Township, doesn’t come and address the issue. Although he is the one that had been forcing students to buy school materials in all schools within Mantong Township.

Keynote Speech of Palaung State Liberation Front (PSLF) Chairman at the 49th Anniversary of the Palaung National Resistance Day

Respectable leaders of alliance groups, leaders’ different organizations and distinguished guests,
I am greatly honored by your presence at this auspicious occasion and firstly, I would like to express my heart-felt gratitude to all of you, on behalf of all member of Palaung ethnic community and on behalf of member of the PSLF front, for your audience at the 49th anniversary of Palaung national resistance day.

Distinguished guests from organizations,
Today marks 49th anniversary of Palaung resistance for justice against oppressive regime and I could say it is such an auspicious day for all Palaung nationalities and our Palaung National Liberation Front (PSLF). Fourty-nine years ago, Palaung people has started their struggle against unjust rule, as they cannot suffer anymore for oppressive and they stood up unitedly as they wanted to say “enough is enough”, with whatever weapons they had.
As I have stated today is an auspicious day for Palaung people, I would like to explain briefly how Palaung resistance emerged. At the end of World War II, many ethnic leaders, including Taung Peng region’s Saopha Sao Khun Pan Sein of Shan State Saopha Council, signed historic Pang Long agreement with independence leader Gen. Aung San, to show a motion that ethnic frontier areas will work for country independence along with leaders from British Burman proper. I said that to make clear for the public that Palaung people has been standing firmly for the country since the independence movement and Palaung leader, Sao Khun Pan Sein played a crucial role along with Gen. Aung San for independence struggle from British rule and for rebuilding the country.
Unluckily, when after Aung San and other state leaders were assassinated in 1947, the ethnic unity based on the principle of equality stated in Pang Long agreement was neglected by other successive Burmese leaders and brought to an end. The Palaung nationalities had attempted peacefully for their endowed rights of ethnic equality and self-determination under a genuine federal union, but it was not successful and finally, they took up arms to stand for their rights with Shan State revolution policy in 1958. At that time, Shans and Palaung nationalities stood together in the same organization and collectively called for remedy of their grievances.
Later, there were some differences in political outlooks and Palaung people thought they needed their own organization which can protect their security and interests, which can promote their well-being, and moreover, to pursue for ethnic equality and to stand in front of all Palaung population, then founded Palaung National Force (PNF) on January 12, 1963. We want to honor and have cerebrated the founding day of PNF as our national resistance day and now it marks 49th anniversary.
Distinguished guests and respectable patriotic comrades,
Some people have questioned us; now there is an elected government in Burma and why you are still waging armed struggle against it? It is understandable for those who don’t understand the nature of canning heart of the regime and a civilian government just for show. Our ethnic people has been waging armed struggle, as our political, economic and social aspirations are yet to be fulfilled and they are still a dream existing in far away. We are struggling and defending the unjust war of the regime with a just war. On the other hand, we are holding arms until and unless we can’t enjoy our equal rights and right for self-determination. We are just fighting a battle of defense for our dignity, freedom, truth and justice.
Today present so-called civilian government is just a sham government, which is controlled by military dictators from the behind and they are still conducting unjust rule, oppressing the civilians at gun point and violating systematic and large-scale human right violations, especially in many ethnic areas. They are just a group of criminals who are creating civil war in Burma. They are just a handful of people jamming the development of the country and rich by pillaging country’s abundant natural resources. The government is fighting war in many ethnic areas for maintaining their power and preserving their personal interests. They are fighting war in all-out effort, since they have denied call for a genuine peace and ending civil war throughout decades and the war is making profits for a handful of military leaders. We, all ethnic nationalities, must fight a just defense war against these rulers, as it is a justice call and to prevail ethnic equality, self-determination, democracy and human rights, and long lasting peace in Burma.
Distinguished guests and respectable patriotic comrades,
We may not be perfect, but we can think and we have enough intellectual to consider what is right and what is wrong. We have a patriotic spirit loving our own people and culture. We have maintained and preserved our tradition, culture and language. We have our own ethnic party and armed forces. We will stand idly– not only for present military controlled government, but also for other unjust governments– if they act against our national interests and if they infringe our birth rights and our land. We will fight back whatever enemy against our national interest, it doesn’t matter whether they are strong or we are weak. The spirit to stand against injustice is more important for the struggle, I believe. We will pursue our struggle until to the end of our objectives. We will struggle against all forces who are evil against our nationalities and who are prohibiting development of our national lives and obstructing well-being of our people.
For that reason, we must fight in unity with other alliance groups against the sham so-called civilian government. We must work together among democratic oppositions and ethnic forces, to repel the oppression, with a system of “alliance front”. I would recommend “unity within an alliance front” is also our duty to preserve. We must build and strengthen our own organization, then we can extend strengthening of our alliance groups. If we work together with a genuine goodwill and benevolence, we can build our alliance unity and which will lead to a victory. We should not discriminate among our resistance groups, whether small or big, whether strong or weak, and regardless of ethnicity population and the area of the land, but we should seek unity and we should seek our common strategy to be successful.
Thus, I would like to push for unity within an organization and within our alliance front, while working for our common political objectives. I would suggest we should pursue practical and flexible means but with a zealous spirit and a committed mind. Finally, we will find a victory through our efforts.
Distinguished guests and respectable patriotic comrades,
Prolonged civil war in our country has been raging aggressively recently because the dictators who are seeking only for their interests have fueled the war unilaterally. The war has been intensifying because they have no intention to solve political problems by political means and using superficial talks and sham ceasefire as tactics to divide and rule ethnic forces and to take advantages on them. I believe they will continue war in ethnic area, to prolong their military control and to intensify their systematic practices of Burman chauvinism.
Respectable patriotic comrades,
Finally, I would like to urge to serve with full effort on our unfinished national revolution duties, to serve tirelessly for the interests of our people. Moreover, it is necessary to empower ourselves by continuous learning, then we can perform our duties practically, systematically and successfully. By continuous learning, we can keep the right knowledge, the right outlook, and the right attitude and we finally can implement with the right mean for our duties.
In our spiritual capacity, we should maintain patriotic spirit for our country and nationalities, loving spirit for our parents and people, strong and committed national revolutionary spirit, commeradeership spirit among our colleagues. We should maintain unity among ourselves and we must strive to fulfill our responsibilities until achieving our political goals. We have to respect the esteem of our past martyrs, heroes and comrades who have sacrificed their lives and properties for our national struggle forever and I would like to urge our comrades to fulfill unfinished struggle with utmost of our efforts unitedly and with determination.
Thank you.

49th Anniversary of Palaung (Ta’ang) National Resistance Day Statement of Palaung State Liberation Front (PSLF)

Today, January 12^th, 2012, marks 49^th anniversary of Palaung national resistance against military dictatorship in Burma for the national liberation. In this auspicious day, the Palaung State Liberation Front (PSLF) would like to salute to those of Palaung martyrs, respectable leaders, our heroes and heroines, who have sacrificed and contributed their lives and sweat and properties in the Palaung national struggle throughout 49 years against the unjust Burmese rules, with the objectives of freedom from repression, for equality, for self-determination of Palaung people, for promoting democracy and human rights, and for establishing a genuine federal union in Burma.

The military regime hold 2010 elections with many alleged vote riggings and frauds, under 2008 constitution which was again unjustly forced to endorse in a forged referendum, then formed a sham civilian government. Although the new government has been claiming introducing for democratic reforms, civil war has been intensifying in ethnic areas since after the installation of new government and many ethnic civilians are forced to displace by fighting and their livelihoods are damaged. The ethnic populations are struggling with tremendous hardships since after so-called newly elected government, because of intensifying conflict in their area and by oppression by authorities. Additionally, the political prisoners, who were illegally charged with false accusations and sentenced to lengthy prison terms, are yet to be released and still incarcerating their terms in many inhumane prisons.
Despite the government has been initiating peace talks with some ethnic groups, military offensives are still raging against other ethnic groups.  It is crucial to end these military offensives against ethnic nationality groups, if the government is sincere to build a genuine peace in Burma, and it is necessary to solve the problems by political means. If the government is just pursuing talks just with intention of divide-and-rule tactic and conducting temporary ceasefire merely for a window dressing show, a sustainable peace cannot be prevailed in the country.
Under the so-called new civilian administration, the fighting between the government forces and Kachin, Shan ethnic forces are increasingly raging and which cause tremendous hardships for Palaung population living close to the fighting areas. At the time of fighting, many Palaung villagers from Namkham, Manton, Maiwee, Kutkai, and Namhsan townships are forced to conscript as porters and combatants in the fighting fields while others are forcedly violated for their human rights, including forcing  for their labor and frequently demanding of unjust tax and properties.
Under the new setting, Palaung self-administrative area is acknowledged by the central government at least on the paper, however, the local authority has no real power to manage their affairs and has to work mostly under control by military leaders. Moreover, the state-led development projects, such as hydropower dam construction, trans-Burma pipeline to China, cause exacerbating negative effects against the local population, such as confiscation of their lands and frequent use of their forced labor. The Palaung populations are also struggling hardly with the drug program and the downfall of market for their main product, tea.
The PSLF and Ta’ang National Liberation Army (TNLA), in cooperation with other ethnic forces, has been trying to expand their control area in Palaung region, in order to protect Palaung people who are feeling insecure for their lives and properties under the government control and who are facing human rights violation in their daily lives, and to promote their well-being. Meanwhile, the PSLF and TNLA are committed to contribute their efforts to build a “Union Army” under guidance of United Nationalities Federal Council (UNFC) and to continue their struggle against unjust and oppressive rule of Burmese military. For that reason, the PSLF would like to urge Palaung nationalities, particular to patriotic youth to join in the TNLA and its struggle.
Finally, PSLF would like to urge Palaung people to join united in the struggle to liberate their lives from oppression and unjust rule at the auspicious occasion of 49th Palaung national resistance day.

“A genuine autonomous and self-determinable Ta’ang region shall be established”.

Central Executive Committee

Palaung State Liberation Front  (PSLF)                                                                                                       January12,2012.

New Shweli dams in Burma war zone to displace thousands

Burma’s military-backed government is proceeding with two mega dams on Burma’s Shweli River, a major tributary of the Irrawaddy, which will forcibly displace 3,000 people and directly impact over 15,000, according to a new report released today by local researchers.
The report, Shweli Under Siege, details how farmlands have been confiscated, roads built, and surveying conducted under military escort in preparation for construction of two hydropower dams in northern Shan State, which will export electricity to China.
The area has recently seen escalated conflict between Burma’s Army and ethnic resistance forces and soldiers have been deployed to secure the dam sites. A battle broke out near the upper dam site in June this year, forcing workers to temporarily leave.
The new dams are part of a series blocking the Shweli River. The construction of Dam 1, which was completed in 2008, involved forced labor and dramatic militarization for local Ta’ang villagers, who received no electricity. Dams 2 and 3 will flood over 30,000 acres of tea plantations, rice farms, and forests. Five villages have already been ordered to move for Dam 3.
Despite government promises to assess impacts of dams on the Irrawaddy River after rising public concern, there has been a media blackout about the Shweli dams.
“Burma’s new regime is two faced – they pretend to protect the Irrawaddy while selling off its tributaries to China” said Mai Aung Ko from the Ta’ang Students and Youth Organization (TSYO).
China’s hydropower giant Huaneng Group has signed a Build-Operate-Transfer agreement for Shweli Dam 2 while Swiss Colenco Power Engineering is involved in Shweli Dam 3. The companies have not consulted affected peoples. Abuse of rights in ethnic areas has fueled the civil war in Burma.
“Foreign dam builders should wake up to the war raging around them and pull out their investments right now” said Mai Aung Ko from TSYO.
The TSYO is calling on Burma’s military government to cancel planned dams on the Shweli, implement a nationwide ceasefire, withdraw troops, and enter into genuine dialogue to meaningfully address the root causes of the ongoing civil war.

PWO exposes shocking levels of domestic violence in Burma’s northern Shan State

“Voices for Change”, a new report released by PWO on Stop Violence against Women Day, claims that 90% of Palaung women are affected by domestic violence. PWO carried out a survey of over 600 people in 4 townships, and found that physical violence is common between married couples and within families.
We couldn’t discuss family matters because he got angry very easily and always beat me when we argued. Sometimes he beat me so badly that I had to go to the clinic to get medical help, and he even beat me in front of his parents; nobody can control him. – Palaung female, Namhsan Township.
Domestic violence has a devastating impact on individuals and communities; those affected suffer both physically and psychologically, and often withdraw from community life. Palaung women face acute gender discrimination in all aspects of their lives. Despite this, PWO found that many Palaung see gender inequality and domestic violence as part of their traditional culture and an inevitable part of life.
“Domestic violence and gender discrimination are huge problems for women not only in our area but in all of Burma. Until now nobody has discussed domestic violence, so many people think that violent behaviour is normal, even those who have experienced it themselves”. – Lway Moe Kham, leadresearcher.
Palaung people have suffered from violence perpetrated by Burma’s brutal military regime for more than 5 decades. In the context of Burma’s national culture of violence, domestic violence is seen as normal or even acceptable, an attitude which has directly contributed to the high levels of domestic violence found by PWO in the Palaung area. Local people reported that drug and alcohol abuse and the impact of the economic crisis were also fuelling domestic violence in the Palaung area.
PWO is calling upon Burma’s military-backed government to end its violent attacks and human rights violations against ethnic peoples, and to ensure that the human rights of rural ethnic women are protected by fulfilling its obligations to CEDAW. PWO is working with local communities to address theseproblems, but more domestic and international support is needed.

63% of Families Lose Land and Livelihoods to Destructive Development and Land Grabs in the Ta’ang area

A new report released by Ta’ang Students and Youth Organization (TSYO) estimates that 63% of farming families have lost their land to confiscation by the Burmese military and their cronies. Despite much-publicized political “reforms” in the country, the authorities have refused to stop land confiscation, causing more threats to families’ livelihoods and food security.
The report ‘Grabbing Land: Destructive Development in the Ta’ang Area’ exposes shocking realities and impacts of land confiscation in the Ta’ang area of Northern Shan State and shows how contradictory Burmese land laws are manipulated to enable the military-led Government to oppress and abuse its people and grab their land at will. The Burmese Government also fails to adhere to the international legal framework of Housing Land and Property Rights in Burma.
Mai Parn La co-author of TSYO’s report says ‘Corrupt local authorities have for many years been misusing laws by stripping people of their land and livelihood under so-called ‘orders’ with complete disregard for justice and fairness. More than 63% of families surveyed have already been affected and the land confiscations are still going on. If it does not stop, Ta’ang people will have nowhere left to live or grow food. ’
The report points to the massive development projects taking place in Northern Shan State as the main reasons behind the Land Confiscation namely: Three Shweli Hydropower Dams, the Shwe Gas and Oil Pipelines and the China-Myanmar Railway Transportation project. In addition increased militarization, continued corruption, road expansion in Namhsan and Kyat Suu projects in the area have led to a subsequent rise in human rights violations suffered by the Ta’ang people (also known as Palaung) from the Burmese Military.
TSYO have documented that approximately 42,940 acres of land has been confiscated and estimates that over 8,588 families have been affected by land confiscation. These numbers are set to rise even further as development projects progress. The impacts to the Ta’ang people are devastating; they have lost their lands, homes and livelihoods and have received inadequate or no compensation for their losses. The majority of the benefits from the projects will not be for the local people but will be given to neighbouring China. The victims of land confiscation are not consulted about their fate; they are simply ordered to move.
The lives of Ta’ang people have been shattered as this victim of land confiscation explains: “I am so sad because after they confiscated our farm three days ago my wife died. And also two of my sons are very sad and don’t want to stay at home after the death of their mother, they left home. Two of my daughters who attend high school have had to drop out from their school. We only had the farm. We don’t have experience to do other jobs so it is very difficult for us to find another job’
TSYO calls for the Burmese Government to respect the Housing, Land and Property Rights of its people, to end human rights violations, for the Government and foreign development companies to have more transparency and accountability about these projects as well as securing informed consent from the people affected from the projects. TSYO call the Burmese Government should enter into genuine and constructive dialogue with ethnic leaders.

Paddy Farms damaged by heavy Hail Storm

Many paddy farms were destroyed by heavy hail that hit ManKyawt – Mansan village in the Mantong area on October 29^th 2011.

“A family yields between two to three hundreds of baskets of rice annually. I’m sure this year we will probably get the same amount, but as they were going to harvest, the heavy hail storm came and beat our entire paddy. The villagers couldn’t do anything they just cried in despair” said a local paddy farmer.
The villagers now face welfare problems, some have already borrowed money before their paddy yield, and they are unable pay back their debts.  There are over one hundreds families in Mankyawt- Mansan village and they depend on the paddy farms more than the tea farms. Even though it rained in the other villages their crops were not destroyed.
Mantoung Township became one of the Ta’ang administration regions after the 2010 election. The villagers are still not getting help from NGOs or any authorities.

Village Head and others tortured by Hsipaw Battalion

In Oman Village, Manthong Township the Village Head, village committee members and youth were tortured by Hispaw’s battalion.

“When the Burmese army arrived at the village on October 27^th 2011, they tied up the Village Head and some of village committee with rope before they interrogated them asking them questions about the Kachin army. As there were not any Kachin army in the village, they beat all the villagers” said an eyewitness.
Most of the Oman villagers are from Kachin and Lesu ethnicities that live there. The military threated the villagers as they suspected the village of supporting the KIA.
The military has already arrived in Man Sat village and they will continue to Kachin State to pursue their fight with KIA. They not only force local people to be porters they also randomly arrest innocent people that cross their path.
Recently in September, Burmese military Battalion No.501 forced the villagers to porter and took their horses and mules to carry their weapons in Manloi, Nanglin and Manlan villages, Namhsan Township, Northern Shan State.
