Burma’s President’s Office in Naypyitaw announced on December 1 the names of a 30-strong team to investigate whether the Monywa copper mine project should be continued, and to determine what level of force was used to contain the protests at the site.
The appointments come in the wake of what has been described by many news agencies, including Mizzima, as a violent crackdown when riot police moved in early on Thursday morning to disperse hundreds of protesters at Latpadaung Mountain, an area at the heart of the mine’s projected expansion.
