History of the Jews in Myanmar (original) (raw)

Property Value
dbo:abstract The history of Jews in Myanmar, (formerly Burma), begins primarily in the mid-19th century, when hundreds of Jews immigrated from Iraq during the British colonial period. Cochin Jews came from India and both groups were part of the development of the British Empire, becoming allied with the British in Burma (now Myanmar). At its height in 1940 the community of Jews in the country stood at 2,500 members. During and after the Second World War many Jews left the country, first under pressure from the Japanese occupation of Burma, and later because of repression under the newly independent nationalist Burmese government. One synagogue survives in Yangon, the capital, and in the 21st century, it attracts an increasing number of tourists.

À son apogée la communauté de ce pays bouddhiste de l'Asie du sud-est compta jusqu'à 2 500 membres. Au XXIe siècle il ne reste plus qu'un vingtaine de Juifs dans ce pays.
