Where in the World - Burma RTE1

[cactusflower]

Kudos to Where in the World who filmed this programme, on now, in Western Burma in an area where filming not allowed- Kiren State -
where whole villages are surviving on the run from the Military Government.

Gem stones and hardwood timber being plundered by the government.

The Kiren fought for the British against the Japanese in WWII on the basis they would get independence.

The film shows the KLA - Kiren Liberation Army - operating openly in uniform.
