# Land-confiscation complaints continue under NLD government Date: 2018 ## The fact Through 2018 farmers and ethnic communities still documented land-confiscation complaints the NLD government did not unwind, a completed continuation on Suu Kyi’s watch. ## Context VLAT and courts sat slowly. She did not sit as a township officer. Continuation is still a dated household-asset cost. Panglong is a neighbouring peace row. Investment opening is a neighbouring industrial row that can collide with land. Myanmar’s State Counsellor (2016–2021) was de facto civilian head under the 2008 Constitution; she did not command the Tatmadaw’s autonomous ministries, write a Bangladeshi gazette, an ICJ merits judgment, or a 2026 [Min Aung Hlaing](/people/min-aung-hlaing) amnesty. She has been detained since 1 February 2021; as of August 2026 she is under house arrest after sentence commutations, not in office. A Nobel lecture is not a clearance-operation order. An ICJ appearance is not a personal genocide conviction. A junta court sentence is not a finding that every charge was true. Allegation of a stolen 2020 count is not stored as a completed steal. A Panglong speech is not a nationwide ceasefire. A Reuters conviction is not a completed finding that the journalists planted evidence. A 2026 ICRC visit is not a release. ## Evidence and sources Ministry of Agriculture Myanmar carries the official instrument or communique. Reuters records the same dated act independently. ## Significance The path is [household purchasing power](/drivers/household-purchasing-power) and [institutional corruption](/drivers/institutional-corruption)-risk: completed unresolved confiscations keep rural asset insecurity. ## What is established and what is not Established: 2018 continued unresolved land-confiscation complaints under NLD government, independently reported. Not established: that she ordered every 1990s seizure, or a unique later calorie coefficient from one township. What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, a later repeal, a court that vacated the instrument, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions. The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit. Committees sat slowly. Farmers still waited. Companies held some plots.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies Land-confiscation complaints continue under NLD government, not a later speech about Land-confiscation complaints continue under NLD government. Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. Land-confiscation complaints continue under NLD government on 2018-09-11 is not a licence to treat every later Ministry of Agriculture Myanmar communique as this same act. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. This dossier refuses to average Land-confiscation complaints continue under NLD government into a personality. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to Her government inherited seizures. Committees sat slowly. Farmers still waited. Companies held some plots. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series. ## People - Aung San Suu Kyi: https://factrail.ai/people/aung-san-suu-kyi ## Drivers - Household Purchasing Power: https://factrail.ai/drivers/household-purchasing-power - Institutional Corruption: https://factrail.ai/drivers/institutional-corruption ## Sources - https://www.reuters.com/article/us-myanmar-land-idUSKCN1LQ0K4 - https://www.mol.gov.mm/ ## Methodology https://factrail.ai/methodology Canonical: https://factrail.ai/facts/mm-suu-land-2018
