Kaladan River

Kaladan River

The Kaladan River is a river of Myanmar, located in the west of the country around the Sittwe area.

The Burmese government were working on a $500 million project with India to attempt to facilitate trade between the two nations [ [http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/2004/03/20/stories/2004032000840400.htm The Hindu Business Line : `Work on Kaladan river project in Mizo to start soon' ] ] . The trade will open up not only Mizoram but India's entire North East as a hinterland for the Myanmar port of Sittwe.

Development of the river is also being negotiated with the Shwe Gas Project for economic enhancement [ [http://www.shwe.org/photos/about-shwe The Shwe Project — Shwe Gas Movement [For a Sustainable Future in a Free and Democratic Burma ] ]
