Description: Translation (Gun Mai) It is said that Chin and Kachin Jinghpaw are brothers. There was a mountain called Majoi Shingra mountain, which is the highest mountain in the world. Are the Majoi Shingra and Mount Everest the same? Isn't it? Is it the same? Isn't it? Our ancestors said that what they called Majoi Shingra Mountain in the past and today's people called Mount Everest are the same. There were two brothers who lived on Majoi Shingra mountain. When they lived there, it was a real hardship situation because the paddy was also not used to grow well. The weather was also very cold and there were full of mountains wherever they want to go. One day, the elder brother said to his younger brother that "My brother, we are here in a very hardship situation. Thus, let's go and find a good and wide land and live there". The younger brother replied that "No, I don't want to move". And, he decided to remain there. So, the elder brother said that "If you don't want to come we me, we will be separated. But, if you don't want to come with me, you remain here. I will go ahead and you follow me because I will make signs on the trees with my sword and you follow me through the signs". Then, the elder brother left this brother. Soon later, however, the younger brother thought himself that "Hmm.... it is impossible to live alone here. I think it is better to follow my elder brother". And, he followed his elder brother. He looked at the signs on the trees that his brother made with the sword, and followed and followed. When the younger brother reached a mountain where perhaps Chin people are living currently, he saw a huge bunch of banana trees. When he was passing through the banana trees, the banana trees had already grown again even though they had been cut as the signs. The banana can grow immediately soon after you cut. Isn't it? Because the banana trees have been already grown, the younger brother said himself that "Hmm....it has been already so long. I am also tired and busied. Look! These trees even have been already grown until such long. I don't want to follow anymore, I will just live here". Then, he just decided to live in that mountain. Since he was following (follow = 'hkan' in Jinghpaw) his elder brother's signs, he was named Chin ('Hkang' in Jinghpaw). Perhaps they hadn't seen the banana tree before because they did not know the banana tree can grow immediately. Therefore, the younger brother decided to live in the mountain that he reached. It would be difficult to believe for them about Kachin and Chin are brothers because it has been already very long. May be they will believe it if they know this story. It is ended.
