China wants to expand its oil fields to Myanmar. The farmers of Myanmar are the victims of this new plan of China. The south Island ( Ramree) with 400 000 inhabitants has a lot of oil and gas under the ground.
The Chinese Oil company has already destroyed rice fields and plantations when they conducted seismic surveys and mined the island in search of oilfields. This caused hundreds of people their houses and they were forced to relocate. The oil company has never consulted the local people and the company has never took its corporate social responsibility.
They also polluted the local nature. To dump their waste, they dig shallow canals to carry the toxic drilling mud. away from the drilling site, but right into the Chaing Wa Creek. This creek passes several local farms.
China is using Myanmar in search of oil and gas. There are no advantages for Myanmar. The local people have to move, what isn’t fair for them. The profit of the oil is not going to the people of Myanmar, but right into the pockets of the Chinese owners. And they pollute a lot and don’t take their responsibility. The government of Myanmar made also profit on the sale of gas to Thailand, but like the Chinese Oil company, the government did with the money nothing for the local people.
