CHILDREN
WHO LIVE IN VILLAGES THAT HAVE NOT YET BEEN DESTROYED
These are village children
in Eastern Burma. Their homes have not yet been attacked as part of the current
Burma Army offensive. There is no doubt, though, that some of them have had
to run for their lives before, perhaps even more than once. The SPDC's war
against the ethnic nationalities in Eastern Burma changes location from year
to year. In any case, at the time of posting, in early April 2006, these photos
were already three weeks old. It is possible that the war has reached them
by now, and that they are also IDPs.
