 | Domestic conditions, coupled with a geographic location which links the expanding economies of South East Asia, China and South Asia, characterizes Myanmar as a country with dynamic internal and international mobility. Ethnic conflicts are one of the major sources of population displacement in and outside the country. Millions of people have been displaced, relocated and resettled from their birthplace. Thousands of others have fled the country to refugee camps in neighbouring Thailand, Bangladesh or elsewhere. Population mobility along the Myanmar‐Thailand border has been very fluid. So too along the borders with India and China. Many of these areas are also home to hill tribe populations who live along both sides of the border. Download this publication |
