MONG PAI (called Mobye by the Burmese)

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 722 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MOL-MOS
MONG PAI (called Mobye by the Burmese) , the most
south
 -westerly of the British Shan States of Burma. It has an approximate area of loon sq. m., and a
population
  (1901) of 19,351. The general
character
  of the country is hilly, rising westwards in a gentle slope from the
chief
  stream, the Nam Hpilu or Balu.
This is navigable for native boats throughout the year to the point where it sinks underground in
Karen
 -ni. The
chief
  cultivation is
rice
 , with about two acres of dry or hill
rice
  to one of wet bottom. The hill
fields
  are left fallow for ten years after two years' cultivation. The chief, the Sawbwa Hkun Yon, held charge through the reigns of four Burmese kings, and submitted early in 1887 on the first arrival of British troops. He abdicated in favour of his son in 189o, and died a few years later.
