The GNF further said, “You know better than we do about the hardships of Nagas in Myanmar. Intolerable material and political hardships that seem endless: total economic stagnation, absence of infrastructure, lack of basic medical facilities, resulting in extreme poverty, infant mortality, food insecurity, and so on. And on top of these, they face exploitation and repression from the military junta. The point is Nagas in Myanmar need all the help they can get. At the very least, both NPGs and CSOs need to make sure we don’t add to their sufferings.”
The Global Naga Forum (media cell) in its public appeal also appreciated the goodwill efforts made by the Eastern Naga civil society organizations to prevent the problem from escalating.
