(11 Mar 1976) RR7610A BURMA: THE KAREN REBELS • • For over a quarter of a century, the Karen rebels of • Eastern Burma have been fighting a little-publicised • war of liberation. The Karens are Burma's largest • minority with a population of at least three million and • an army of 10,000, which now includes some school-age • boys. In 1975, they agreed on a common front with other • groups, including the Shans and the Kachins, which are • also trying to wrest autonomy from the one-party state of • Burmese President Ne Win, but there has been no major • breakthrough yet. This colourful report of a rarely filmed • area shows their training and life in their jungle HQ, and • includes an interview with their political leader Manh Ba Zan. • • Film: Rev – Sound: Mag/SOF-Colour– Available in HD • • Find out more about AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/HowWeWork • Twitter: / ap_archive • Facebook: / aparchives • Instagram: / apnews • • • You can license this story through AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/metadata/you...
