  • What's your view on Kokang and Wa armies?

    You should also discuss more global politics, like China's tight grip on the regime and the possibility of a change in US strategy. Burma is embedded in the bigger geopolitical picture (China against the West) and since you operate from UK you should definitely side with the US (with people like Senator Webb). The problem is bigger than just NLD vs. SLORC.
