Ahi zongin, a suakta lo gama omte leh a min beka suahtakna a kitangkona muna om minam dangte in Zomi cih khawng a zakdah mahmah uh hangin, Zomi pen i hihlohna hi tuan lo hi. Ei i kilawhna min hangin midangte a buai nading om kilkel lo a, mite in a minam min uh a khelsuk a khelto uh a, a deihna khatpeuh uh tawh a kilawhna hangin zong ei’ buai nadingin themcik zong om tuan lo hi.

Tua pen leitung mun tuamtuam a om Zomite adingin deihtel ding nih (2) hi den a, hi den lai ding hi. Tua ahih manin, ei minam, i pau i ham, i lai, i ngeinate leh i zia le tongte kembit ni i cih leh, a mangthanloh nading leh a khantoh nadingin i hanciam kisam cihna hi.

Mizoram context-ah, ei pau le ham a zang bangzah hiam om hi. Ahi zongin ei pau a sim siam lo leh a sim nuam lo mi pen a tamzaw hi kha ding hi. Tua ciangin ei pau tawh pau khawng haivai a sa, a hai tengin ei pau zat ding a sa khawng om zawmah lai hi. Ngaihsut kibang lo pipi omkhawm i hih manin a om thei mah hi (ci mai ni!).
Mizogam sungah ei pau, ei lai tawh a kisuahkhia lai leh, ei lai khantoh nadingin hanciamna tam nai het lo hi. Hun maan (regular) taka a kisuah bang tam het lo hi. Biakna pawlpi pua lam panin mi nih le thum hanciamna tawh ‘Zolawkta’ leh ‘Khuaizu’ kisuah ngei a, tua banah Siamsin Pawlpi in khatveivei hawmkhia thei zel uh hi.

Tua hi a, Zomite pen lai lam i hatloh zah mahin, khuatang nuntakzia (lifestyle) zong khantoh i kisam mahmah pah hi.
Tua ahih manin Zolai khantoh nadingin ZBC vaipuak pen lian mahmah cihna hi thei ding hi. ZBC pen a thusim vet lo leh a langdo vilvel a om hangin, mi pil ciangte in a sungah a omloh uh hangin a manphatna thei veve sam uh hi.
Ka thugelh a huam (scope) hong neusak kik leng (ka thulu bangin), tua banga eimite adinga tavuan lianpi a nei ZBC in bangci bangin Zolai khantoh nadingin nasem ding, cih pen a ngaihsuthuai leh i gennop lianpi khat hong hi kik hi. Tua dingin ZBC sepzia ding khat le nih gen pak leng :
Amasapenin, ZBC in Zolai tawh kisai in a huam (scope) ciang a theih masak ding kisam hi. ZBC pawlpi mite bek adingin hi lo hi, cih a theih ding kisam a, Mizogam sunga Zomite sung pana a hun manmanin lai a hawmkhia omsun ahih manin, tua laihawmte tung panin mundang, gam danga omte in Mizogam sunga a mipihte uh lim le mel, ngaihsutna leh nuntakzia thei ding uh ahih manin a ngaihsutna a zaisak kisam hi.

Sia Nang, Sia Suan, Sia Thangte cih bang pen, lai (literature) bek saisak hi leng pawlpi leh minam adingin a manphatna uh leh amau mahmah ii manphatna pen tu-a sangin lianzaw dingin ka ngaihsun hi. Cihnopna ah, khawksia (pastor) in koi lai hiamah om lo ding cihna hi tuan loin, zumah a tut hun uh ciangin department/board tuamtuam tawh lenkhawm sak nianua loin, literature bek len vilvel leh, tua bang mahin literature pen department/board dang tawh lenkhawm loin tuam om leh manpha mahmah dingin ka lamen hi. Department/Board dangte bel nih le thum a kipuakhawm zongin a dankhat om dingin ka ngaihsun hi.
A lamdang ka sak mahmah leh Zolai khantoh theihlohna hi dinga ka ngaihsut pen Zomite biakna pawlpi sungah Executive Secretary or General Secretary post tawh literature secretary or Editor post pen i kikopsak ahi hi. EBCC (Lamka), CBA (Lamka), TBC (Tedim), ZBC (Champhai), ZCLS (Kawlpi)te in a laihawm – Khristian Thukizakna, Lungdamna Aw, Lungvakna, Laitai, Zolai Zunna-ah, E.S or G.S in Editor sem khin uh hi.

ZBCM (Kawlpi) in a lai nasepna ZACC ah Secretary a tuamin nei a, tua in ZBCM in a hawmkhiat ZOMKA ah Editor sem pah hi. Tua banga lai lam tawh kisai a tuam vilvelin a sem om ahih manin pawlpi dangte sangin lai lam nasepna-ah ZBCM activities pen a tamzaw/lianzaw tawh kibang pah hi.
A lang lamin ngaihsun leng, i makaipite (E.S /G.S) lo a sem thei om lo hiam ci leng, amau zong kilaihlaih veve a, khatpeuh in sem thei veve uh hi. Midangte muang zo lo a, E.S or G.S ahih uh ciang beka muang zo pan i hiam? cih bang ngaihsutna-ah om a, muan taak, muan theih ding om lo i cih leh bel, E.S or G.S a sep uh hangin kimuan taktak tuan lo ding cihna ahi hi. Tua ahih manin, Zolai mainawt nading leh khantoh nadingin kikhelna a om kisam hi.. We need Change!
Zomi, Zolai, Zopau gen ciangin tua a zang lo minam dangte huat ding, minam dangte aa zatloh ding cihna hi tuan lo hi. Minam dangte pen amau hihna bangbang, a deihna leh hoih a sak bang uh-a a nuntak bangun i pomsiam ding hi a, amau nuntakna-ah i thuneih nading khat zong om lo hi. Tua mah bangin, minam dangte in zong ei pau i zatna hang, ei lai i zatna hanga hong simmawh a, hong niam-et uh leh, tua pen itna hi loin, kisimmawhna ahi hi. Tua ahih manin mi i it a, mi in hong it nadingin amau hihna bangbang leh eima hihna bangbang kitheisiam tuah kisam hi.
Bangbang ahi zongin, Zolai tawh gelh nawn vet kei ni-in, i kiim i kiangate zui-in, i minam mangthang hen i cih leh thu tuam; tua hi lo a, ei pau mah zat i ut leh tua i zat pau le ham, thu le la (lai) pen a khantoh nadingin geelna nei lo ding i hiam?
Tu dinmunah, pawlpi pua lam panin Zolai tawh kisai sep le bawl baih lo ahih manin pawlpite in tavuan lianpi nei hang, cih kiphawkin, hanciam ciat ni. Geelna om loin sepna pen manpha ngei lo a, sepna om loin khantohna om thei lo hi.
