These
are the permission papers. People in relocation sites need permission
by SPDC authorities or army officers to come back and work in their
rice plantations. For one permission paper the villager have to
give at least 100 kyat. Sometimes villagers are allowed to come
back in the morning and return in the evening. Whether permission
is granted depends on the SPDC officer, sometimes villagers are
allowed go to their fields for a week andsomethimes they are not.
Because of these reasons many villagers' crops were destroyed by
wild pigs while they were absent for a long time, or at night and
during the weekend. This meant many villagers did not have enough
rice to survive. Villagers have to borrow money to survive and many
got into debt. |
