Ethnic Issues http://www.burmaguide.net A peaceful and democratic Burma requires a mutual respect among the country's diverse ethnic groups. According to available statistics, ethnic Burman people comprise about two-thirds of Burma's approximately 50 million people. Most of Burma's ethnic minorities inhabit areas along the country's mountainous frontiers. Karen and Shan groups comprise about ten percent each of the total population, while Akha, Chin, Chinese, Danu, Indian, Kachin, Karenni, Kayan, Kokang, Lahu, Mon, Naga, Palaung, Pao, Rakhine, Rohingya, Tavoyan, and Wa peoples each constitute five percent or less. This section of the BurmaGuide.Net includes resource summaries on ethnic and indigenous issues specific to Burma, and around the world. daily 1 2006-06-20T05:34:35Z Documentaries Keep Burma Concerns Alive http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG8_16_en No publisher admin Burma Support Group Ethnic Issues Media & Communication 2006-08-29T11:46:36Z big_resource Remembering 1988 http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG18_128_en No publisher admin Civil Society Democracy Ethnic Issues 2006-07-03T09:09:23Z big_resource “Entrenched - an Investigative Report on the Systematic Use of Forced Labor in a Rural Area” http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG1_11 No publisher admin Children Development Environment Ethnic Issues Human Rights 2006-10-19T06:24:20Z big_resource Burma Lawyer’s Council on Burmese Migrant Workers http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG1_49_en No publisher admin Development Ethnic Issues 2006-10-19T07:23:45Z big_resource Promoting Conflict Prevention and Conflict Resolution through Effective Governance - A Conceptual Survey and Literature Review http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG3_52_en No publisher admin Development Ethnic Issues Governance 2006-06-29T05:48:13Z big_resource Somalia and Somaliland - Strategies for dialogue and consensus on governance and democratic transition http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG3_29_en No publisher admin Development Ethnic Issues Governance Transition 2006-08-24T11:15:19Z big_resource SHAN http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG6_11_en No publisher admin Democracy Environment Ethnic Issues Human Rights 2006-08-28T11:34:43Z big_resource Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organizations UNPO http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG6_14_en No publisher admin Democracy Environment Ethnic Issues Human Rights 2006-07-17T09:38:15Z big_resource CHINS http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG6_3_en No publisher admin Democracy Environment Ethnic Issues Human Rights 2006-10-20T09:06:33Z big_resource Karenni State http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG6_9_en No publisher admin Democracy Environment Ethnic Issues Human Rights 2006-10-20T09:45:29Z big_resource They Came and Destroyed Our Village Again: The Plight of Internally Displaced Persons in Karen State http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG12_22_en No publisher admin Ethnic Issues 2006-06-29T15:59:21Z big_resource Army and Proxies Attack Shan Civilians - Thailand Must Admit Civilians Forcibly Displaced http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG12_23_en No publisher admin Ethnic Issues 2006-06-29T15:59:30Z big_resource Euro-Mon Community http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG16_21_en No publisher admin Ethnic Issues 2006-07-01T09:01:34Z big_resource The Plight of Burma’s Stateless, Rohingya Muslims http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG16_31_en No publisher admin Ethnic Issues 2006-07-01T09:47:17Z big_resource Forgotten People: The Rohingyas of Burma http://www.burmaguide.net/res-en/BIG16_32_en No publisher admin Ethnic Issues 2006-07-01T09:47:25Z big_resource
