Demonstration Camps are Destroyed at Night Time without Any Ambulance nor Doctor Prepared
Starting from 3:15, riot police destroyed six demonstration camps using fire engine and tear gas. There are injuries sustained from tear gas and running in the dark at night time.
So far, 11 demonstrators from two of six demonstration camps are injured. The demonstration camps cannot connect each other.
Daw Aung San Suu Kyi is to speak to villagers and demonstrators this afternoon.
The riot police destroyed demonstration camps just before Daw Aung San Suu Kyi arrives.
About 500 villagers and monks had been demonstrating from November 17 to the Letpadan Tang copper mining project.
The project is run by Union of Myanmar Economic Holding Limited and China's Wanbou Copper Mining company.
The Environmental Impact Assessment and Social Impact Assessment of the project is to be done in March 2013. However, the mining activities has been started in 2012 without any EIA or SIA.
The demonstrators said that they are demanding to stop mining for three reasons: damage of religious buildings, damage to farm land and damage to health of people around the mine.
There are 26 villages in the vicinity of the mine and 33 villages.
"Ivenhoe's copper mine has only two mountains and six villages around. The two mountain is also 200 feet above sea level. In Latpadaung Taung there are 26 villages and 33 mountains, some of which are over 1000 feet above sea level. Obviously, the impact will be much much bigger than Ivenhoe's project," U Tin Maung Oo, a demonstrator said.
