<p>Economic oppression refers to the restriction, deprivation, or control of economic resources in ways that undermine an individual&rsquo;s economic autonomy. This paper examines the representation of economic oppression in L.H. Pde&rsquo;s U Raimon bad ka Dashisha, with particular attention to the experiences of Kong Jngen and Dashisha. Using qualitative textual analysis, the paper examines episodes in which property documents, land, and inheritance-related resources become objects of control and conflict. The analysis is informed by scholarship on women&rsquo;s economic empowerment and economic abuse, particularly the work of UN Women, Sundari Anitha, and Adrienne E. Adams and her co-authors. The discussion shows that the novel represents economic oppression not simply as the loss of material resources but as a form of coercive control that can be reinforced through intimidation, physical violence, and psychological suffering. Kong Jngen&rsquo;s experience centres on the alteration of land-ownership documents and the attempted sale of property, while Dashisha&rsquo;s experience involves pressure to surrender documents connected with her mother&rsquo;s property. These episodes demonstrate how struggles over property can affect women&rsquo;s autonomy, security, and dignity within family relationships. The paper argues that the novel complicates any simple assumption that a matrilineal social context automatically protects women from economic control, while avoiding the broader generalisation that all women in matrilineal societies experience oppression.</p>
