you have to be such a crazy person for that to be persuasive. Take land from the people who live there/lived there less than a hundred years ago to give it to people who might’ve had a connection to it in the distant mythic past.

yesterday, the National Democratic Front of the Philippines (the political arm of the Communist Party of the Philippines) and the Government of the Republic of the Philippines released the Oslo Joint Statement, affirming their commitment to resuming peace talks between the CPP-NDFP and the GRP, which have been broken since at least 2017 under the Duterte administration.

this is the preamble to the preamble, merely signaling that both parties are willing to reopen peace talks, not that anything has been agreed upon, nor that any peace talks have even been had. Official talks may begin as early as the first half of 2024



more information: https://nitter.net/geloxmrfl/status/1729432466413470123

my personal take is that there's a million things that the CPP and the GRP disagree on that it's difficult to envision significant concessions, especially with Marcos at the helm, and especially with the GRP's ties to the United States... but the fact that the GRP was willing to even enter into these discussions belies the military's repeated assertion that the party was on the verge of collapse, or of being wiped out.

for example, just this May we had this ridiculous piece from The Economist saying that the New People's Army was on the verge of running out of ammo. That obviously isn't true.

as well, this also affirms the strength of the party and its ability to persist and evolve despite the passing of Jose Maria Sison

Wullie's reign cannae smother the flames o' equality!

Western propaganda would have you believe the entire nation of North Korea with its 26 million people puts on, every day, an elaborate stage show intended only for Western consumption, because every single thing that happens on the entire planet is really about the West.

They couldn't possibly be trying to just live their lives and run their society with as little consideration as possible regarded to the West because they correctly understand the West wishes only great harm upon them and is thus only something to be guarded against.

When browsing Chinese reddit some posts said they revived the Myanmar Communist branding a couple years ago, like around 19. In some of the photos you can see some fighters with their patches. I don't know if this is the case of Russia soldiers putting red army patches on themselves.

Everything is hush hush because Beijing doesn't want to admit they support any of the northern factions. Beijing still does business with the junta government as well. So a lot of news coming from unofficial channels you are not sure how much you can trust them.

Reading the lives of people living in border regions of Myanmar you get the feeling that having a united and stable government makes a huge material difference in people who live in the same continental Southeast Asia peninsula.

If I remember corretly there was an issue with border skirmishes and such starting to impact Chinese towns across the border, leading to them stepping in to support the cpb for a more reliable border

they seem to be the exception to china cutting off all support to Maoists abroad since they give more immediate benefits being on the border and they seem to be way better positioned to be part of whatever coalition topples the junta if it happens than the cpp or naxalites

Two of the ethnic Chinese groups in Myanmar, Wa State and MNDAA, split off of the Communist Party of Burma in the '90s. Some of the students sent off to the countryside in the Cultural Revolution ended up joining the insurgents in Burma.
