message: The section of Zomi should not be moved to Chin since the Zomi has a broader and inclusive meaning than the Chin which is limited only for the Chin Hills. Zomi would cover  the whole area of Chin Hills in Burma, North East in India, Mizoram in India and some parts of Bangladish.
The "merge" indicator on the "Zomi" page should be removed. Zomi should still remain. -unsigned by User:Sianpu (07:46, 26 April 2007)
:The articles right now are confusing, and since the tag has been up since July of last year, I am going to merge them as splitting them again can be discussed afterwards.--Jorfer 02:06, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

message: This article desperately needs cleanup. Merge discussion might be easier to undertake if the article is more organized. At first glance, it seems to be the same as article Zomi. ZueJay (talk) 13:03, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

message: ===WHAT or WHO is ZOMI?===
By Tg. Thang
Zomi = Chin = Kuki = Mizo
"Zomi"  is the term by which we call ourselves. We are also known as "Chin" 
by the outside world. The Bama people call us Chin, which was adopted by the 
British (whereas the Zomi call the Bama as Kawl]. 
The Zomi people live in (1) Zomi State (also known as Chin State) in Myanmar 
(also known as Burma), (2) Mizoram State and Manipur State in India, and (3) 
in Bangladesh (formerly known as East Pakistan).
"Mizo" and "Zomi" are inchangeable.
The Zomi people were one of the 4 parties signatory to the Panglong 
Agreement, i.e., (1) Zomi, represented by the Ukpis (Pu Thawng Za Khup, Pu 
Hlur Hmung, and Pu Kio Mang), (2) Kachin, represented by the Duwas, (3) 
Shan, represented by the Sawbwas, and (4) Bama, represented by Aung San.
Why we zomi are called "Chin" while we overselves call "Zomi" since time immemorial?
It is a shame that we do not try to reason why we are called "Chin". "Zo" has many meanings.
But why "Chin" ? Did we have "chin" in our language? Yes! We have " chin ta ei!". It is finished. It is the end. But, however, couldn't it,"Chin", comes from our ancestors' name "Qin"?
It is grueling and difficult to prove why or how. For example, why Qin people once who had founded a dynasty could live half-naked in the very last century? Why? Why? We must scrutinize it. 
           
Here,on the other hand, my friends or brothers, those who live in outer Myanmar, forgive me or comtemplate again and again that "Zo" people are from Myanmar in the very start and if we want to study our history, we must remove all of our prejudice and preassumption such as " "Mizo" and "Zomi" are inchangeable" ". If someone writes that kind again, every Zomi people understands clearly that he views the history of "Zomi", the so-called "Chin", with prejudice. Moreover, we must also study Zomi peoples' history by juxtaposing with Myanmar's history because it too belongs us, too. 
           
It is crystal-clear that we will never be able to unmask our history by repititious proclaiming or writing that "Burmese call us "Chin", but we call ourselves" Zomi"".

thread_title: External links

message: The two articles :Zo (people) and :Zou people (India) appear to cover the same ethnic group. I propose that they be merged, eliminating the duplication. Zou seems to be the slightly more common name, but as the :Zou (disambiguation) page points out there is also a group known as the "Zou people" in :Benin.  The ethnic group exists in both Burma and India, so subbing it as (India) seems inappropriate.  So there are "Zo people" or "Zo (people)" or "Zou (SE Asia)" or other possibilities for a title.  I prefer "Zou (SE Asia)", but I'm open to suggestions and reasoned argument for other titles. --Bejnar (talk) 17:12, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I just found the :Zomi article which also covers this ethnic group.  It too should be included in the merger.--Bejnar (talk) 19:23, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I have tried this before and been reverted here, so apparently there is a difference. Since I have no external knowledge on the matter, I just left it that way.--Jorfer (talk) 18:06, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Khumpita explained himself on my talk page:
Hi! Sorry for very late discussion. I thought that the Zomi page is worth to keep in its original setting and the Zo (people) is rather to be merged. Being the native, when we say "Zomi", it is a general term to refer to the whole people inhabiting present Chin State of Myanmar (Burma), part of Chittagong region of Bengladesh, present Mizo State and part of present Manipur of greater India as the "Zo" (as it looks in the article) would be a term to refer to a specific minor clan within the greater Zomi though there's no striking difference within the word itself from linguistic point of view. However, it is about the common usage. So, please, see that i have edited the former redirection. Sorry if it's borthering you. Khumpita (talk) 14:16, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

text: Please could you identify the Zomi tribe in India that is distinct from the Zo people.  It would be best if you could provide a citation to a scholarly work, such as one in anthropology.  In searching, I did not immediately identify another Indian tribal group known as the Zomi.  Thanks. --Bejnar (talk) 21:04, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
