39: The Children of Loi Tailang

Antonio Graceffo

In this new video release, host Antonio Graceffo takes you back inside of Burma, to meet the children, orphans, and students of Loi Tailang. Their parents were murdered by the Burmese army (SPDC). Their villages were burned. But their education continues at Loi Tailang, under the protection of the Shan State Army (SSA), where they try to continue living their lives as normal, happy young people.

The cost of war is far more reaching than the thousands killed. Also includes the millions displaced, marginalized and relegated to a fringe existence, living just over the border from humanity.

Antonio Graceffo takes you to meet the students, orphans and children who have fled Shan State to live under the protection of the Shan State Army at Loi Tailing.

The war on the ethnic minorities of Burma has been going on for more than forty years. The casualties are not just the soldiers and murdered villagers, but entire generations of children robbed of their education and denied the opportunity to live a peaceful and normal childhood.
