Declaration to submit petition for the confiscated land of Rohingya

(Burma Times) BY Maung Hla Myint - According to the villagers of Atwin Nga Tay village tract, City peace and development council (Ma-Ya-Ka) and land registry has released notification to submit petition for the confiscated Rohingya land.

The land was confiscated for the battalions and pagoda in 1988 and 1994. There were hundreds of acre land that was confiscated for battalions and one hundred acre for the pagoda that is located in Dom Pine village, a Buddhist village near the Kin Daung village tract. In fact it was belonged to Kin Daung villagers. The land which was seized for the pagoda was allocated two acre to every family of the Dom Pine villagers (Buddhists) in last may.

Incredibly, the City peace & development council and land registry have sent letters to the village administrator of kin Daung about submitting petition for the confiscated land of kin Daung villagers before second December. The petition Is for those hundred acre land which are locating around the pagoda. Unfortunately there is no any declaration of the government official for other villagers about submitting petition for their confiscated land.

But the villagers are worrying if the notification turns to fake ( i.e it is the show off of the Myanmar authority for the international community). Her,I mentioned some villagers name and their confiscated acre land list below.

1. Mv Alijuhar s/o Zar Ali one acre

2. AshawZawma s/o Furuk Ahmed four acre

3. Mazalal s/o Adusawbi four acre

4. Abjulla two acre

5. Md Sultan s/o Sayedakbar 24 acre

6. Ayup Khan s/o Md Khan two acre

7. Md Zama s/o Furuk ahmed two acre

8. Dil Mohamed s/o Furuk ahmed two acre

9. Ali Ahmed s/o Mogul Ahmed three acre, etc.

There are hundreds of villagers who lost their land are from Kin Daung , Atwin nga tay ,Sein Daung, Tankyak kan, Lay Myro, Dabru Chaung, Nanra Goon villages and so on.

American Buddhists Promote 969 Movement With Website

Irrawaddy News: July 9, 2013 A group of American Buddhists has launched an English-language website promoting the 969 movement, in response to negative media surrounding the ultra-nationalist Buddhist campaign in Burma. The website aims to dispel “myths” about the movement, with a letter from nationalist monk Wirathu to a Time magazine reporter whose article about 969 was banned in Burma. “We’re not officially endorsed by Ven Wirathu at this time but will send a delegation to his monastery soon,” a spokesperson for the site said via email, adding that the group would create a nonprofit to coordinate “969 activities worldwide in response to religious oppression.”
