Community Agency for Rural Development (CAD) was founded as a Catholic faith-oriented Myanmar NGO on May 4, 2004, by Joseph Kung Za Hmung @ Win Hlaing Oo. The real history of CAD’s inception was motivated by the dead of two sisters of Joseph Win Hlaing Oo @ Kung Za Hmung in Hnaring village of Thang Tlang Township, Chin state, by the remoteness and marginalized poorest region in Myanmar in 1991. Due to lack of medical doctors with medicines scarcity and due to lack of road infrastructure in Hnaring area (Lautu/Lutuv areas), Thang Tlang Township of Chin State, the local people were confined and were dependent on quacks for their sickness. Therefore with curable illness, his two sisters were sadly dead in Hnaring village. By their death, he decided to save the lives of thousands of his local people by improving transport infrastructures for people’s faster and easier movement, by developing the healthcare skills of the local people, by creating larger and faster access to education and modern changing business opportunities.
