lisu

The Lisu people (Lisu: ꓡꓲ‐ꓢꓴ ꓫꓵꓽ; Burmese: လီဆူလူမျိုး, [lìsʰù]; Chinese: 傈僳族; pinyin: Lìsù zú; Thai: ลีสู่) are a Tibeto-Burman ethnic group who inhabit mountainous regions of Myanmar (Burma), southwest China, Thailand, and the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh.
About 730,000 Lisu live in Lijiang, Baoshan, Nujiang, Diqing and Dehong prefectures in Yunnan Province and Sichuan Province, China. The Lisu form one of the 56 ethnic groups officially recognized by China. In Myanmar, the Lisu are recognized as one of 135 ethnic groups and an estimated population of 600,000. Lisu live in the north of the country; Kachin State (Putao, Myitkyina, Danai, Waingmaw, Bhamo), Shan State, (Momeik), (Namhsan, Lashio, Hopang, and Kokang) and southern Shan State (Namsang, Loilem, Mongton) and, Sagaing Division (Katha and Khamti), Mandalay Division (Mogok and Pyin Oo Lwin). Approximately 55,000 live in Thailand, where they are one of the six main hill tribes. They mainly inhabit remote mountainous areas.The Lisu tribe consists of more than 58 different clans. Each family clan has its own name or surname. The biggest family clans well known among the tribe clans are Laemae pha, Bya pha, Thorne pha, Ngwa Pha(Ngwazah), Naw pha, Seu pha, Khaw pha. Most of the family names came from their own work as hunters in the primitive time. However, later, they adopted many Chinese family names. Their culture has traits shared with the Yi people or Nuosu (Lolo) culture.

    JamiiForums Tanzania Napendekeza Tundu Lisu aachiwe huru kwa mujibu wa sheria, akamatwe tena na kufunguliwa mashtaka upya yenye ushahidi mpya uliothibishwa.

    Aachiwe huru mara moja na kisha akamatwe tena hapo hapo baada ya kesi kufunguliwa upya, ili hatimae ushahidi mpya utumike katika kumtia hatiani na apewa haki anayostahili kama watuhumiwa wa uhaini wengine duniani. Hii itasaidia sana kutokuingilia uhuru na maamuzi ya mahakama za Tanzania, lakini...

    Maana mivutano ni mkali sana ndani ya Chadema taifa kwasasa baina ya wanaotaka Lissu atoke korokoroni dhidi ya wale wanaotaka Lissu aendelee kusota korokoroni. Je, unadhani vita hii inalenga kumuadhibu lisu kisaikolojia akiwa korokoroni au kuidhoofisha chadema kama taasisi?🐒 Mungu Ibariki Tanzania
