Missiological Reflection on Zo People’s Land-Boundaries

This is a highly original piece of writing on the significance of geographical sense of place in divine creation of diverse nationalities of people in different places. Based on St. Paul’s lecture before a learned Greek audience in ancient Athens on the hill of Acropolis, the author attempts to explain theologically how ‘people’ relate to ‘places’ both in God’s Word and the world itself. It also hints at the locational significance of the frontier lands occupied by the Zo people as pregnant with many possibilities from a missiological perspective. Finally, the author discerns ‘divine intentionality’ in the Zo’s sandwiched-positioning between the three great currents of Oriental cultures – Hinduism in India, Buddhism in Burma, and Islam in Bangladesh.

One Ethnic Nationality With Many Nomenclatures
As an individual, I hold many identities. In gender terms, I am a man; ethnically I am a Kuki-Chin-Mizo; religiously, I am a Christian and am Indian by nationality.

We run the gauntlet of women, shaking hands and receiving bouquets. The old women smile from tattooed faces, the geometric indigo designs on face and throat indicating their area of origin.

The People: Kuki/Chin/Zo

1.1 Introduction

This chapter is intended to explain the identity of the target audience for the project. Its purpose is not to present a complete history of the people. The people, though belonging to the same group, carry different names and speak diverse dialects such as Falam, Hakha, Laotu, Mindat, Matupi, Mizo, Paite, Sizang, Teddim, Thado, Zo, Zotung, Zophei, and many more. However, they have common name(s) - Kuki/Chin/Zo (Zomi/Mizo).[1] For the sake of convenience, I will be using the term KCZ throughout my project.

Importance Of Having A Demarcated Territory

Having a national name without any demarcated territory is just a wishful thinking. The reason is that people with no territory are like if they do not exist. That was the reason why Israel had sought their ancestral territory in 1948 as a sovereign country after almost 2000 years of wandering lives all over the world
