The situation in Rakhine state is unprecedented, as the people experience not just food scarcity but an economic collapse making it nearly impossible for families to sustain even minimal rations.
More than 1.4 million people have seen their monthly income plunge drastically, falling from 66,600 kyat to about 46,620 kyat, insufficient for even basic needs.
Kanni Wignaraja emphasized that if conditions do not improve, projections indicate close to 2 million individuals could be facing starvation by 2025, highlighting the urgency of the crisis.
With income levels plummeting, households have resorted to drastic measures such as cutting food rations to a single meal a day, illustrating the severity of the humanitarian crisis.
