By Kaladan News Kamal (not his real name) lives in the town of Maungdaw, in north-western Arakan State, western Burma. The 40-year-old Rohingya struggles daily to support his family while operating a small tea shop. However, he wept when he told me in an recent interview he just can’t seem to make enough money and is deeply worried his family cannot not survive their present financial crisis. As I sat with him in his shop, he told me he is the only wage earner in the family, supporting his wife and his children. He has no alternative way to take care of his family members as his eldest son is also unemployed. He rents the tea-shop for 6,000 Kyat per day from a Rohingya. He said he also has to pay tax to the concerned authority (but he didn’t mention how much he has to pay for fear of being identified).
