KARENNI STATE – The responsible person of Karenni Point 5 project urged the people on May 7, to participate in the project as only 20 percent of the initial goal has been achieved. The initial goal of the Karenni Point 5 project is to raise 400,000 USD.
The responsible person of the Karenni Point 5 project mentioned that the project was led by trustworthy people including the leader of Karenni Nationalities Defence Force, Khun Be Du, and urged all people to participate in the project as it is a gathering of the leaders from various fields.
Karenni Point 5 project is a project that aims to equip the revolutionary forces in Karenni with 50MG caliber machine guns to resist the junta council’s aerial attacks.
The goal of the project is to raise 400,000 USD. Only 20 percent of the project has been achieved on the 14th day of the project.
“If 100,000 people contribute 4 dollars each, this amount is easy to achieve. Although the project time will end soon, we have only achieved 20 percent of the project. It will be completed, if 100,000 people contribute 10,000 MMK each. So if we base it on 10,000 MMK per person, we can assume only 20,000 out of the required 100,000 people participated,” said the person responsible for the project.
It was stated on the social media page of Karenni Point 5 project that people who always participate in the projects, internally displaced people from the front lines, the members of Local People Defense Forces, CDM (civil disobedience movement) students, nurses, teachers are among the people who participated in the project.
“Now, we are fleeing and we lost our houses. Our misfortunes will end only if Karenni escapes. So, I participated in the project,” said an IDP who participated in the project.
The members of Revolutionary Forces and many celebrities have also urged to participate in the project.
Karenni Point 5 project period was set from April 23 to May 13 and there are 6 days left before the campaign ends.
