The chairperson of the Rakhine Women’s Union and central committee member of the Arakan Liberation Party crossed the Naf River into Arakan State on Monday.  She and six other members of her party were greeted by around 600 supporters when they arrived in the state capital Sittwe by ferry from Buthidaung Township.
