Protests at Burmese government’s plan to close IDP camps – VOA News

June 26, 2018 Campaign News

“I am worried about you”, Burma Campaign UK’s Campaigns Manager Zoya Phan told VOA Burmese News after the Burmese government announced plans to close camps for IDPs (internally displaced persons) in ethnic areas.

A statement by the Ei Tu Hta IDP Supporting Committee of ethnic organisations calls on the Burmese government to immediately halt all plans involving closure of IDP camps in ethnic areas and address the root causes of the decades-long civil war before discussion of IDP return.
