Daiwa House Group/Fujita Corporation
Daiwa House Group is one of Japan’s largest construction and land management companies. It has a subsidiary, Fujita, which operates in Burma.
Fujita, Tokyo Tatmono Co, Japan’s state investment firm JOIN, and the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC) are all involved in a consortium that pays rent to the Burmese military for land for a complex they built and financed. Known as the Y Complex, the development of shops, offices and a hotel is estimated to be paying the military around $2 million a year in rent. We understand that development of the project is currently suspended.

The Dirty List

The Dirty List names international companies doing business with the military in Burma. The list also includes international companies involved in projects where there are human rights violations or environmental destruction.
In September 2018, the United Nations Fact Finding Mission on Myanmar, which has been investigating human rights violations in the country, stated:
“The actions of the Tatmadaw (Burmese military) in Kachin, Rakhine and Shan States, in particular in the context of the ‘clearance operations’ in northern Rakhine State in 2016 and 2017, have so seriously violated international law that any engagement in any form with the Tatmadaw, its current leadership, and its businesses, is indefensible.”
