Borderline Women?s Collective, Gallery and Tea Garden, located in Mae Sot, Thailand began with three women?s organisations seeking to establish a shared marketing space for women from Burma and living along the Thai-Burma border to sell their hand made items. The women?s groups also hoped that by having a collectively managed market they would build their capacity for running income generation projects with the communities with which they work. In May 2004, the Borderline Women?s Collective opened... As of December 2017, the members of the Collective are: TBCAF (Tak Border Child Assistance Foundation); KWAT (Kachin Women?s Association of Thailand);
LWO (Lahu Women?s Organisation); MWO (Mon Women?s Organisation); WDG (Women?s Development Group); CWG (Chin Women?s Group); CFSG (Community Forest Support Group);WDREC ( Women Development of the Rebuilding Environment and Community); Ying Yan Wan ( Shan Women Group).

"A book documenting life inside Burma from 1987 through the recent historic transition by an award-winning photographer....I am asking for your help to self-publish a book. As some of you know, with changes in digital technology the publishing industry is going through a transformation, and publishers are reluctant to print books by even the most accomplished photographers.
A professional team is in place. Editors/designers Natasha Chandani and Lana Cavar have begun working with me to produce a high-quality 192-page book of color photographs in a 7 x 9 1/2 inch format.
Essays by prominent Burmese writer Dr. Ma Thida, a human rights activist and herself a former political prisoner, and also journalist Francis Wade will accompany the images to explain the context in Burma today. The book will be in print by April 2014.
Please help to make this project a reality. Your donation will pay for the costs of producing and printing a beautiful book. Among the rewards are limited edition prints and a signed copy of the book..."

available at several online booksellers. The book reproduces
three of KHRG?s 1999 reports to show the human rights
situation in 3 Karen regions, each of them under a different
degree of SPDC control. Together, they show that while
tactics vary in nature and brutality between different regions,
the end result in all three areas is the disintegration of village
life. The reports are tied together by an introduction and
summary background of Burma, and the book also contains
many photos from KHRG?s archive in black and white..." Details of the online sales are on the site.

"...Depuis de nombreuses ann?es, l?opposition ? la dictature militaire en Birmanie est incarn?e par Aung San Suu Kyi, prix Nobel de la Paix en 1991.

Book Announcement, Table of Contents and ordering information.
"The Disorder in Order examines Burma?s history of ?regime entropy” following the March 1962 coup d?etat that ended the country?s brief experiment with parliamentary government. Implementing socialist economic policies in central Burma and a hard line against ethnic minority and communist insurgents in the Border Areas, Ne Win?s Army-State presided over the country?s fall from prosperity to Least Developed Nation status by 1987. The following year, a new martial law regime, the State Law and Order Restoration Council (SLORC), brutally suppressed a nationwide movement for democracy that drew on the country?s colonial-era traditions of revolutionary nationalism. Although SLORC promoted an open economy, including foreign private investment, the second Army-State operates on the same assumptions as its predecessor: that government is synonymous with pacification, unquestioned central control and cultural homogenization.
The author argues that while the post-1988 junta, renamed the State Peace and Development Council in 1997, claims a unique mission in defending national unity and social order, its policies generate political disunity and socio-economic disorder. Tragically, genuine order, the key to Burma?s development, remains out of reach as the 21st century dawns..."

Description:
"Quelles réalités économiques, politiques et militaires se cachent derrière les phénomènes de société que sont la production de drogues illicites
dans les pays du Sud et leur consommation dans les pays industrialisés?
Si l?opium est produit et consommé depuis la plus haute Antiquité, sa production à large échelle en Asie est, quant à elle, étroitement liée à la colonisation
britannique d?abord et à la guerre froide par la suite. En effet, après la Deuxième Guerre mondiale, les troupes nationalistes chinoises dans le Triangle
d?Or et, plus récemment, les moudjahidins afghans puis les talibans dans le Croissant d?Or, ont eu recours à l?économie de l?opium pour financer leurs guerres, en
bénéficiant de l?appui bienveillant de la CIA dans leurs luttes contre le communisme.
Aujourd?hui, ces groupes, ayant perdu leurs motivations et apparences idéologiques, ont donné naissance à d?autres groupes, bien organisés et
puissamment armés et qui, à travers leur rôle dans l?économie des drogues illicites, demeurent plus actifs que jamais.
En Asie, l?opium, du nerf de la guerre en est devenu l?enjeu, avec ses multiples conséquences géopolitiques dans les pays du Sud et ses retombées sociales et
économiques dans nos sociétés occidentales.
En comparant l?Afghanistan et la Birmanie, à travers les deux espaces majeurs de production d?opium et d?héroïne que sont le Croissant d?Or et le Triangle
d?Or, l?auteur a effectué un véritable travail d?investigation et d?analyse pour identifier les acteurs, localiser les réseaux, évaluer les enjeux géopolitiques et expliquer les logiques
fondamentales d?une production qui alimente un marché aux profits vertigineux et aux implications mondiales..." Table des matieres, Introduction, cartes, Compte-rendus et critiques et liens a d?autres documents de l?auteur.

A PARAITRE (Octobre 2002). Yaa baa, "le m�dicament qui rend fou". En Tha�lande le surnom de la m�thamph�tamine sonne comme un avertissement, mais il n?a pas dissuad� des centaines de milliers de Tha�landais, jeunes pour la plupart, de s?y adonner avec plus ou moins de retenue. "Drogue de travail" ou "drogue de loisir", il s?agit d?un v�ritable ph�nom�ne de soci�t� qui n?est pas �tranger aux �volutions �conomiques et aux mutations culturelles qu?� connu le royaume au cours de ces derni�res d�cennies.
Ce livre s?efforce de donner des explications � un engouement qui touche �galement d?autres pays de la r�gion. Il replace la consommation de m�thamph�tamine dans les logiques du narcotrafic dont les ressorts sont � rechercher aux marges orientales de la Birmanie, en plein c�ur du Triangle d?Or."
