The Global Naga Forum (GNF)

DIMAPUR — The Global Naga Forum (GNF) on May 22 sent its fifth Relief Mission to help the fire-ravaged Naga village of Kaishan Lungchan village in Myanmar.

A truckload of relief materials consisting of rice and essential items, blankets, utensils, clothes were transported to the last border Chop village in Longding district of Arunachal, informed GNF in an update.

The relief materials were received by the Raja of Kaishan Lungchan village and six leaders of the village council who arrived at Chop on foot. The affected village collected all the relief materials on foot the next day, as there is no motorable road to their village from this border closest to them, GNF stated.

The Global Naga Forum expressed gratitude to the Fellowship of Naga Baptist Association; St. Josephs Church, Viswema; PNBA; Ram Muivah, MLA, and donors from families of GNF members for their help in the fifth Relief Mission to Nagas in Myanmar .
