Burma: the endless Kachin guerrilla

 

France-2Un Oeil sur la Planète, February 25, 2013.

16 minutes. A report by Séverine Bardon and Vincent Reynaud.

Burma’s democratic process is making headlines but the minorities issue is being largely ignored. One of the oldest guerrilla in the world is led in Northern Burma by the Kachin people, which has been fighting for over 60 years against the central government to preserve its language, Christian faith and culture.

This report was short-listed in 2013 for the Bayeux Calvados award for war correspondents.
