MOMEIN

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 683 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MOL-MOS
MOMEIN , the Burmese name of the
Chinese
  city Teng-yuehchow, in the S.W. of the province of Yunnan,
China
 . It was opened to
foreign
 
trade
  by the Burmese Convention of 1897, but so far no advantage has been taken of the permission. It lies
close
  to the Burmese frontier and on the old
trade
  route from
Bhamo
  to Yunnan, but its importance as an outpost of the British
Empire
  is political rather than commercial. The distance from Teng-yueh to
Bhamo
  by the usual trade route is 16o m., and is generally traversed by
pack
 -animals in seven

or eight days. In a straight line the two towns are only 8o m. apart. Near Momein and within its
jurisdiction
  is the frontier town of Manwyne, where A. R. Margary was assassinated in January 1875.
