NLD Statement 84/2000

Description: 

"1. The "Htoo Trading Company" purchased and constructed a timber terminal jetty on buffalo grazing grounds on the eastern bank of the Irrawaddy river in the Kon-baung village tract (Sagaing Division, Katha township). 2. For the transportation of timber to that terminal by motor vehicles, roads were built across plantations causing great loss of produce to the cultivators. 3. There was no consideration and consultation with the owners of those plantations. 4. The transporting vehicles further transgressed on adjoining plantations when passing or overtaking each other thus causing even more destruction to the crops..."
