Villagers protest against an investigation commission’s report on a copper mine project in Sarlingyi township
Villagers protest against an investigation commission's report on a copper mine project in Sarlingyi township March 14, 2013. People whose land was seized to allow the expansion of the copper mine in northwestern Myanmar, prompting protests that were crushed by police, should be compensated before the project goes ahead, according to an official report published on Tuesday. The report was led by Myanmar pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi. REUTERS/Soe Zeya Tun (MYANMAR - Tags: POLITICS BUSINESS COMMODITIES CIVIL UNREST)
