SRDC backs Chinese Landing in mining standoff, demands Indigenous rights

The South Rupununi District Council (SRDC) publicly supports Toshao Nikita Miller and the Chinese Landing/Tassawini village council in Region One after a physical standoff blocking heavy mining equipment from entering ancestral territory ended. The Village Council remains on alert, and the SRDC demands respect for Indigenous rights. This signals regional Indigenous political mobilization against mining incursions in Guyana.
