4 Monthly Report of Mon National Relief Committee. (September, 1999) The New Arrivals to Refugee Resettlement Camps Even in the rainy season when we did not expect the new refugees to our re camp, there are some hundreds of Mon villagers have gradually fled into Tavoy di since June until now.. These villagers have generally escaped from variou government troops' systematic persecution in forcing them to flee from their nativ Most villagers came from Yebyu township of Tenasserim Division. In Yebyu township area, the conscription of forced labour has not been re many thousands of villagers have been subjected to contribute unpaid in road construction. On the other hand, the villagers in this area, also have to pay variou to military irregular basis and they are getting more poorer and poorer. In this area, two main roads of Ye-Tavoy motor road and Ye-Tavoy railway passed through the large area of the township and thus, the villagers in the whole been suffered from the use of forced labour by the soldiers. During the last dry season, the local SPOC troops from LIB No. 404, No. 406,4 forced many thousands of the villagers from 20 villages to construct widening abo long Ye-Tavoy motor road. This road is a strategic road for SPOC to get more con road to. halt the rebel troops and to prevent possible troubles or attacks to mu investment in the area. As the road is quite important for the army, and so planned to widen the road since However, because the local military batta busy with the building of Ye-Tavoy railway road, they have no time to conscrip labour for the motor road, but had conscripted many thousands of the villagers t railway. In this dry season, many thousands of villagers from the villages along the m and the nearer to the motor road were forced to build widening the motor. Each to send at least one member and the villagers were instructed by soldiers to w construct for at least 5 days to 15 days. General work-duties in the construction all small trees and dig stones about 3 feet width outside of the former road and fill with stones. Then the soldiers also forced to tar the new widen track of the road places, the road situation was so bad, and the villagers were forced to build embankment of the road. After widening the road, the villagers were continuo to dig water canals with 2 feet width and 1 foot depth alongside of the motor ro digging of water canals, they were forced to clear trees, bushes with about 50 outside of the road, to have a clear view along the road to prevent the approach o troops. Continuously, the forestry department by coordinating with local troops has villagers to grow trees along the roads. They gave some plants and let the vill since May until July Each family along the motor road was provide 50 plants and to grow all of these plants. One plant and another must far about 12 feet and th were also instructed to fence the plants, with 3 feet square and 3 feet high fence. E had to spend at least about one week to complete growing trees and making fe battalions that took security along the road also named the names of villagers in book and if the plants died, the villagers must be punished.
5 In August, because of heavy rain in Malawe-taung area, some part of railway embankment was also collapsed by flood. Some bridges are also destr of the flood. Then, a SPDC local battalion, LIB No. 408, which took secur railway road forced about 100 villagers from Paukpingwin village to reconstruc repair the bridges. Since the begin of building of this Ye-Tavoy motor road, villagers were the most suffering village, because their village was close to ra were not only forced to contribute unpaid labour in the construction, the sold foods and tax from that village. Because of constant conscription of labour, th original 300 houses, now remains only 60 households, when the troops cons labour this time, they have forced all villagers from the village. On the other hand, according to SPDC instruction to their local battalio themselves for foods, some battalions in Yebyu township also explore new land The troops are also instructed to grow 2 crops both dry and rainy season crops troops have planned to build water dikes to distribute water to their farms.. S troops ordered the villagers in Yebyu township area to construct the dikes. Th Lm No. 406, No. 410 and No. 273 had built about 4 dikes in Now, the vil conscripted by the soldiers to do clearing the lands to get farming space. In Ky water dike alone, about the villagers from ten villages are forced to work in clea Each family in the Kywe-tho-nyima village tract is instructed to clear the gro meters square. That family has to cut down all trees and clear bushes. Du cannot burn trees and bushes down in the place they cleared them. They has to the river and stream to throw them in the water. Because of the constant conscription of forced labour, the villagers have their own works. At least one able-bodied family member has to go and work in road or dike construction. Sometimes, the work places far from their vil could not come back to their homes for many days. After the villagers have no time to work their own works, they also faced problems. Therefore, many hundreds of villagers have fled into MNRC's a camp, Tavoy district camp. When they left from their villages, they also a arrested by soldiers and had to hide for many days along the roads. They coul of their belongings together with them except the clothes with their bodies. Since June, Tavoy district camp received about 56 families of 300 new MNRC also examines why they have fled from their villages. Most of them s no time to do their own jobs to have income to feed their families and then d Many villagers are displaced near their villages and some moved to other plac can avoid the use of forced labour. Some also moved to town and some went to escape forced labour. Due to the population growth in Tavoy district camp, the food suppl provided for the end of the 1999-year could not be enough. The refugees and will require some more food supplies for the end of the year. MNRC Plan for a Needs Assessment Survey As the MNRC review the whole situation of the returned Man refugees alo they could not support themselves and still required some of outside assistance Thus, in October 1999, a group of MNRC members will go around the refuge camps and conduct a needs assessment survey for two weeks period. As it presented to the donor organizations in the previous years, it will needs assessment of the returned refugees again in early November 1999 to c
6 humanitarian assistance to the Mon refugees. Unlike to the previous needs as reports, we will brief the situation of each resettlement area and give more attention arrivals and the refugees' perception at the moment. And we will provide mo information about agriculture and livelihoods. These information are most impo donor organizations to consider for assistance for Year The continuation of new arrivals and refugees' perception whether they prefer back homes or not are generally relate to the political situation in lower part of Bur the world knows, there is a worst human rights record in Burma, no civilian has full to stay at homes. Mainly, many non-burman ethnic nationalities in the war zones h suffered more than the civilians who are in government full control area. The po displacement is also a big case in these rural areas. After 1988, the military government has taken more and more control area a border with Thailand, the refugees inside Thai territory or displaced in Burmese have no enough safety like before. Some refugee camps inside Thai territory w attacked by Burmese army. Considerably, the Mon refugees resettlement camps are so safe and the Burmese troops are also not so far from the camps. Whenever, the Burmese troops are dose to them, the refugees feel they are not their movement are automatically restricted. In this situation, the refugees feel not s work in farming, carrying goods for traders and collecting forest products which ma to get the possible income to buy supplementary foods besides the food suppl MNRC. This situation must not change much in Year There is no situation of change in Burma and the refugees will remain in difficult situation in the resettlemen The refugees as a whole could not support themselves. Therefore, they still requir outside assistance for survival.
