The HRD seminar was held at the Matupi Civil hospital hall in which around 73 Chin University students and other local guests participated. It was organized by the Chin Literature and Culture Committee (CLCC) from Universities in Myanmar.

The seminar aimed to strive for peace, unity and solidarity among Chin people.

Prof. Dr. C. Thang Za Tuan, a member of advisory board of CLCC, in a report regarding the HRD seminar said that the seminar had strengthened the mood of togetherness, closeness and oneness among Chin students. It was a part of achieving the CLCC's motto: 'We are one in Chin.'

"Widening an individual's outlook and experience is the first and major achievement of the seminar," said Dr. C. Thang Za Tuan.

Moreover, the HRD seminar also promotes the spirit of cooperation, coordination, obedience, docility and diligence among Chin Youths building leadership qualities and fostering optimistic vision, according to a report on the HRD seminar.

During the seminar, students could also interact with locals in various activities. They played soccer with local teams, went fishing along the 'Lemro' river with locals, worshipped at three local churches and provided voluntary labour to the 'Pyikhaingphyo' Tea Plantation.

There were no complaints of interference by local military authorities.   

The next HRD seminar is scheduled to be held in Falam Township in Chin state on April 2008. – KNG.
