Contents Summary
An investigation of human rights abuses in Burma in the Karen dominated area by the Karen Human Rights Commission, and Htoo La. The film focuses on the pipeline built by Total & UNOCAL companies to deliver gas from the Adaman sea to Thailand, providing much needed cash for SLORC. SLORC transformed the area into a no man's land, relocated villages, fenced the area like a concentration camp and took the residents away to labor camps.
