The Shan People
This is the 3 minute version with English subtitles.
(Also available in 15 min. version and with Norwegian subtitles).
The Shan people is an ethnic minority from the Shan State in Burma. Thousands of them are on the run because of ethnic cleansing. This short documentary is made to let their voices be heard.
This video is to be shown the spring of 2010 when Shan representatives from Burma (currently living in Thailand) will be in Norway to tell their stories. This is initiated by the Shan Outreach Center and Ungdom i Oppdrag (Youth With a Mission).

Tai, Lao and Thais are children of Kun Borom. There're once in southern China, Yunnan, a formerly Tai-Lao Nanzhou (Nanchao) Kingdom, for centuries and thousand years, but now (while most of them in Burma, Laos and Thailand), they're pretty much every where in the world.
