Kohima: A delegation from the Eastern Konyak Union of Myanmar traveled to the Konyak Union headquarters in Mon on July 28. They arrived to offer support following a devastating landslide in the district. The group included president P. M. Aman, general secretary K. Akham Honwang, finance secretary Ashah V. Anok, and advisory board member R. Manjai.
The visitors brought money for the catastrophe relief fund. They wanted to help local families who lost loved ones. The gift was modest. It aimed to show that Konyak people stand together despite the international border. The union hopes this humanitarian work builds peace and stronger ties between India and Myanmar.
P. M. Aman spoke during the visit. He acknowledged the deep sadness felt by their community in Myanmar regarding the tragedy. He stated, "the financial contribution was a humble gesture of support for the people of Mon and added that although the international border separates the two communities geographically, it has never weakened the bonds of kinship, culture and friendship shared by the Konyak people."
The Konyak Union leadership welcomed the delegation. Both groups joined in prayer for the victims, the injured, and the crews currently working on recovery efforts. The visitors also thanked the Konyak Baptist Church in Mon. The church provided the delegation with housing and food. They view this hospitality as a symbol of lasting unity among the Konyak people.
