Shan business firm set up
Cheewin Sattha
Rangoon has allowed the first-ever company to be set up in Homong, the former
hometown of drug kingpin Khun Sa.
The Shan State South Co will run logging, gems mining and export businesses.
The firm was created after Rangoon agreed to allow a Shan ethnic group, led by
Col Maha Ja, to operate businesses in Homong.
Two years ago the Khun Sa-led Mong Tai Army surrendered to Rangoon and Homong,
its stronghold, was taken over by Burmese troops. It is now governed by a
joint
committee of Burmese soldiers and Shan leaders.
