First Encounter

Chittagong,
Bangladesh


Although the Mru or Murong people originally came from Arakan, Burma I have never met this ethnic tribe before.
Driven out In the 14th century, from Arakan by Khumis, a powerful tribe. They moved to the Hill Tracts of Bandarban and settled along the Sangui river.

Mros take boiled rice twice a day and consume all types of meat but hardly use spicy items in cooking curry, they have no taboos with regard to food although dried fish is their favorite. Drinking home made beer and rice wine are popular, and in a country that is completely dry, it is tolerated.
