I wrote a story this weekend and it is published here:

Ethnic Chin, refugees from Burma, celebrate their national day 24 Feb 2008

Here is a piece of it:

Pu Lian Uk is one of the elected representatives from Chin state.

Uk, who now lives in Washington D.C., visited the local celebration as a guest speaker. He said he had come directly from a meeting last week in a border area in the jungle of Burma.

There exiled MPs and prodemocracy workers drafted an alternative constitution to the one proposed by the current military rulers.
