Ethnic In Myanmar
The Republic of the Union of Myanmar (Burma) is an ethnically diverse nation with 135 distinct ethnic groups officially recognized by the government. These are grouped into eight ‘ Major National Ethnic Races”
1. Kachin
2. Kayah
3. Kayin
4. Chin
5. Mon
6. Bamar
7. Rakhine
8. Shan
The “major national ethnic races” are grouped primarily according to region rather than linguistic or ethnic affiliation, as for example the Shan Major National Ethnic Race includes 33 ethnic groups speaking languages in at least four widely differing language families.
Kachin Tribes
The Kachin people are recognized as a “major national ethnic race” comprising six ethnic sub-groups. Before American missionaries came to the area comprising the modern Kachin State, the majority of the Kachin were Animists. Some worship various gods as well as the spirits of their ancestors.
They live in north part of Myanmar, such as Putao, Sumprabon, Sadone, Kamine, Bamaw, Shwegu, Seinlone, Moekaung, Naungmong and Myintkyina Township are the Kachin resident.
They are good looking in body structure and stout. They always wear the turban man and woman, men wear black long pant or big block strip Long Gyi (long scurf) with white coat. Women wear black shirt decorated with silver coil, silver necklace silver ear rings were set. They share the tradition of the Manaw Festival and the dances of the Kachin Kinsfolk at their traditional Manu Festivals are a blend dignity and delight. The Manaw Festival holds on every January.
Kayah Tribes (Women with remarkable necks)
The Kayah people are recognized as a “major national ethnic race” comprising 19 ethnic sub-group. Kayah is well-known for its long neck women or Padaung people. Most Kayah people live in Loikaw Township a little far from Kalaw.
One special feature of their culture, which makes them outstanding and quaint, is the tradition of adorning their women, the bronze rings round their necks, ankles and legs. The brass necklaces of Kayah Paduang women which ususlly wear at their necks and calves can also be observed.
