Matupi
Matupi ((ビルマ語:မတူပီမြို့)) is a town in Chin State in western Burma (Myanmar), in Southeast Asia.
Matupi is the second capital city, one of the townships of Chin State of West Myanmar, southeast Asia. Matupi, formerly known as Batupuei or Batu Village before it was promoted to the status of township, occupies a large portion of land and includes over 100 major villages in the southern part of Chin State. The name ''Matupi'' is directly derived from ''Batupuei''; however, due to misreading of the spellings: ''Ba'' into ''Ma'' and ''Puei'' into ''Pi'' in Burmese characters, Matupi appeared to be the widely used name without any historical significance in its terminology. The Matupi (Chin) tribe is one of the biggest tribes among the Kuki-Chin-Mizo. From the very beginning all the Chins including Kuki, Mizo, Zomi, Naga, Laimi, and Asho, Kcho and Khumi had lived on hillsides or riverbanks, constituting villages or groups. Among the villages, Matupi (formerly known as Batu Village) was the biggest and most populous. The ''British Gazette'' mentioned that there were over 1,000 living in houses including paddy barns in the village Batupuei between 1900 and 1930. Hakha book recorded that during those days “Matupi” was the biggest and most populous village in the Chin Hills.
