Karenni Dean Chapman 'One shot, one kill, no fear.' Antonio's fighting abilities were beyond doubt. The thirteen-year-old 'killed at least three Burmese soldiers in the fighting and didn't waste a shot.' ... With schoolboy vigour, the baby-faced Catholic happily acted out the exchange of fire in which he shot his enemy dead between the eyes. He said he wasn't afraid.' Burmese forces invaded the Karenni State on August 8th, 1948, and eventually annexed the independent sovereign nation. For the last five decades the Karenni have been waging a war of resistance against successive Rangoon Governments whose attempts to subdue the population have included military occupation, mass relocation of civilians and human rights abuse. The desire of the Karenni for independence is now even stronger. |
