Deadlock: construction works of BAJ in Arakan State

Deadlock: construction works of BAJ in Arakan State

Dhaka, February 23, 2006: It appeared that there have been more dead-lock of Burma-Asia-Japan (BAJ), an organization of development construction Burma, in Arakan state that the sources from Arakan state said.

Accordingly the sources—one of the Detachment-Junior High school of Agumow (Kone-den) village in right western side peninsular area of Rathi-daung town-ship -- northern opposite Meyu river side of Sittwe township-- was banned the permission of newly construction school by the Educational Ministry of SPDC government since 1st week of January, 2006. The construction of this new Detachment junior high school was not only sponsored in finance sector but also will be constructed practically by BAJ.

This organization, BAJ, had aided to constructed the primary schools of Magyichaung village, Pouktawbrin village, Agumaw village, Sinbike village, Donebike village and Chaintaly and Kodengouk village etc, western side of Rathidoung townk-ship since 2001 and 2002.

In this way, BAJ, now trying to aid construction for Detachment junior high school of Koneden village. There are children from four villages including Agumow village, Koneden village, Magyichaung village and Pouktawbrin village attended to this Detachment school for their junior secondary level education. But the present school and its rooms are very small for the children to take part in it.

The poor structure of this school was made of wooden pole, bamboo wall and Thatch grass roof only. So the BAJ had taken measurement for the newly school construction instead of the poor one since the last part of 2005.

The submission of BAJ project was already permitted by the state level authorities included by higher military commanders. But this proposal project has been refused by the Educational Ministry.

Accordingly a teacher meeting with us in Cox’s Bazar, the Ministry of Education authorities concerned themselves want to construct this school using expenditure money from BAJ although they banned the permission to construct by BAJ.

As well as Koneden village Detachment junior high-school, the BAJ has been prohibited for its construction an old bridge of Sittwe town.

The proposed bridge by BAJ was named Thenbenchong bridge which was located near a big restaurant along the High Commissioner Road near Kalalden river bank of eastern side of Sittwe town.

This construction project proposed BAJ was already permitted by western command commanders, Maj;Gen; Khin Moung Myint very recently. But the Construction Ministry of the SPDC government banned this project because the aid money of BAJ must be handed over to the Construction. Ministry that the authorities of this Ministry had demanded it, that the sources said.

According to the policy of the BAJ, this demand of Construction Ministry was not possible to hand-over money to the Ministry of any authorities concerned. So it reached to the point of deadlock for the BAJ.
