The war situation in China-Myanmar border is unstable. The ＂live broadcast＂ of the Kachin Independence Army in Chinese

　　On the 9th, the flight from Kunming to Tengchong was delayed due to air traffic control due to the tight fighting between Burmese government forces and Kachin Independence Army.

　　Yesterday, the war in northern Myanmar did not expand on a large scale, but it did not stop. The reporter and his party set off from Kunming yesterday, took a regional flight to Tengchong, and then transferred to Yingjiang County on the China-Myanmar border. This is where the Burmese artillery shells fell into the houses destroyed in China when the conflict was fierce.

　　"The border war situation is unstable, and Tengchong Airport conducts air control." At noon yesterday, there was no definite departure time, and the staff of Kunming Sheung Shui International Airport comforted hundreds of stranded passengers.

　　Kunming, the spring city, cooled down as scheduled yesterday, and the fog once again enveloped the airport. However, compared with the large-scale detention caused by the weather a few days ago, the situation yesterday was obviously different. Although the flight to Tengchong in the morning was normal, "the flight at 12 noon turned back halfway." The staff clearly told the passengers waiting to board the plane that the main reason why they could not take off was the Tengchong airport and the border war.

　　Cross-border tourism has an impact on tourists and they are not worried about safety.

　　Miss Dong is a tourist from Beijing. She and dozens of her colleagues took the noon flight to prepare for a trip to Tengchong. "All the tours organized by the company have come, and they were fixed six months ago." She told reporters that the company had chosen Tengchong as a tourist destination earlier and did not expect that there would be war on the border. "But there is nothing to worry about!" Although the plane was delayed, she was very reassured about the travel safety, but said that she would not want to travel to Myanmar, which only needs landing visa.

　　“只要在中国这边，就安全得很。”她的同事程先生笑道。

　　他们的旅游目的地腾冲，曾被誉为古代“西南丝绸之路”上的最后站口，自古以来便是边防重镇，中国远征军在此发起的反攻战役为抗战胜利写下光辉一笔，如今这里的国境线长达148公里。2009年初腾冲机场修建启用，为滇西的旅游资源开发和开放带来新的血源与动力。

　　而从腾冲过来的旅行社仍不愿错过机会，向等待的乘客推广从腾冲到缅甸国境两天游。不过推广人强调要从瑞丽的口岸过境，“去年6月那邦口岸过去密支那游的路线就已经停了，口岸不允许过境。”

　　那邦口岸与缅甸仅一河之隔，河那边就是克钦独立军控制的拉咱。

　　缅甸阿妹跨境打工 惦记那边阿爸阿妈

　　虽然盈江县被缅北战事炮弹殃及，但这里仍是西南边陲的一座繁华县城，能来这里打工，对许多从缅甸过河来谋生的人来说，已是“安全且赚钱”的事。

　　出租车司机韩启善的父辈早年曾去缅甸做生意，如今年届40的他前几年也来往边境做木材生意。“那边深山老林里的木材多，便宜，直径都有一两米，运到南方城市价钱好。”

　　不过这两年，他退出了木材生意。“边境不稳，怕有闪失。”他说。

　　一晃眼，他指着擦身而过的一辆运木材的大货车，“现在都是缅甸人自己运过来。”

　　在盈江县进城路的大道上，湖南人全帆开了家湘菜馆，“来店里吃饭的都是做生意的熟客。”餐馆背后的珠宝街上，那里才是他的大生意翡翠和玉件。

　　缅甸玉石又称翡翠玉，主要盛产于缅北一带，因其光洁亮丽的质地被誉为最上品。“去年以来我就不过去了，主要是他们过来。”缅北战事吃紧，全帆说自己的留守主要是等缅甸人送毛料上门。

　　如今他请了几个缅甸人帮忙做生意。在他的餐馆里，就雇了两位缅甸过来的年轻女孩做服务员。平常他称呼她们“阿妹”，工资每月1千元，包吃住，“语言不通，很简单的交流，她们很勤奋，只需要交代一下就办好。”

　　其中一位叫阿欢的女孩，今年20岁。从缅甸密支那过来不过4个月，她告诉记者亲姐姐嫁给了本地人，“在这里很好，很安全。阿妈、阿爸都在那边，想他们。”她用仅会的几个汉语词怯怯地说道。

　　"They call home every day." Quanfan told reporters that China’s mobile phone and China’s network are also used on the other side of the border.

　　"Live" Battle of Kachin Independence Army in Chinese

　　The military conflict between the Burmese government forces and the Kachin Independence Army in northern Myanmar has intensified. Although the war has not spread widely, the tension is still of concern to the international community.

　　At present, Myanmar has realized the transformation from a military government to a democratically elected government and established a federal Republican system. According to the provisions of the new constitution, the Myanmar government has stepped up the reorganization of ethnic minority armed forces in recent years, which has led to renewed tension between the two sides.

　　The Burmese government stepped up its encirclement and suppression of the Kachin Independence Army, which triggered the latter’s rebound in safeguarding national interests. At the beginning of the month, Myanmar President Thein Sein called on all the people to work together to build the country and ensure the peace and stability of the country. He said that only peace and stability can build a developed country.

　　At the same time, on the Internet in China, two Kachin Independence Army personnel "live" the war in northern Myanmar in Chinese. Kachin people in Myanmar belong to the same ethnic group as Jingpo people in Yunnan, and they are closely related. Although they use Jingpo and their dialects, many people are very familiar with Chinese.

　　In the front-line news on the 9th, one of them wrote, "The Kachin Independence Army launched a raid in the early hours of the morning, killing the Burmese artillery positions in Kanggai Highland in one fell swoop". Another real-name certified Kachin Independence Army official also said that "Kachin attacked the Burmese artillery battlefield successfully at night." He also commented on the influence of dense fog on military operations in the past two days.

　　Our reporter tweeted to contact one of the independents. The source said that the recent fighting situation is grim and the border is strictly guarded, which makes it inconvenient to accept the visit. Previously, the Kachin Independence Army had been visited by China media.

　　It is understood that China’s border defense has been stepped up at present.

　　It is also reported that on the morning of the 9th, an earthquake measuring 5.9 on the Richter scale occurred in the Homerin area of Sagaing province in northwestern Myanmar. The epicenter of the earthquake is located 30 kilometers west of Tamanti, Homalin region, near the border between Myanmar and India, with a focal depth of 75.6 kilometers.

　　background

　　Myanmar’s ethnic problems are complex.

　　Kachin independence army

　　The total strength does not exceed 15,000.

　　Due to the long-term war in the past and the possible war in the future, the "Kachin government" has never slackened its efforts in army building. According to the provisions of the Kachin government, men must be soldiers from the age of 13 and cannot be retired for life. Even if they are not in the army in the future, they can only be regarded as "vacations". If there is a war, they must come back immediately; If every family has five children, three must join the army, three or four children must join the army, and two children must join the army; If there are no men, recruit female soldiers.

　　According to the statistics of the Kachin Independence Organization, the Kachin Independence Army claims to account for 7% of the total population of Kachin, and claims to be Christians. However, according to people familiar with the matter, in fact, the total strength of the Kachin Army does not exceed 15,000, which is divided into five brigades, and there are only more than 32,000 government workers. It is also said that there are only 8,000 people.

　　Myanmar has about 135 ethnic groups, large and small. According to the statistics in 2009, there are about 59.13 million people in Myanmar, mainly Burmese (about 69%), Shan (about 8.5%), Karen (about 6.2%), Rakhine (about 5%), Mon (about 3%), Kachin (about 2.5%) and Chin.

　　All ethnic minorities have their own languages, among which the Burmese, Kachin, Karen, Shan and Meng have written languages.

　　Since independence in 1948, Myanmar has been plagued by ethnic contradictions and conflicts. Ethnic issues have run through the whole historical process since independence and become an extremely important factor affecting Myanmar’s political situation, economic development and even international relations. It can be said that Myanmar is one of the countries with the most complicated ethnic problems in the world.

　　Some people believe that the development process of ethnic issues in Myanmar can be divided into three stages: the period of Wu Nu’s administration from 1948 to 1962 was the emergence stage; From 1962 to 1987, the reign of Newin was a stage of comprehensive intensification; Since Maung Saw’s military government came to power in 1988, it has been gradually easing.

　　In response to the complex ethnic issues, Myanmar President Thein Sein called on all ethnic groups to strengthen unity and work together to build a new modern democratic country when he delivered a speech at the Federal Parliament in March 2011.
