Kachin Independence Army

The Kachin Independence Army (Kachin: ''ShangLawt Hpyen'', (ビルマ語:ကချင် လွတ်မြောက်ရေး တပ်မတော်); abbreviated KIA) is the military wing of the Kachin Independence Organisation (KIO), a political group composed of ethnic Kachins in northern Myanmar (Burma). The Kachins are a coalition of six tribes whose homeland encompasses territory in Yunnan, China and Northeast India, in addition to Kachin State in Burma.
In May 2012, the rebel group had approximately 8,000 troops.〔AP, 4 May 2012, Myanmar state media report battles between government troops, Kachin rebels killed 31〕 In October 2010 KIA commanders stated that they had "10,000 regular troops and 10,000 reservists". In 2009 Thomas Fuller of the New York Times estimated their numbers at about 4,000 active soldiers. The soldiers are divided into five brigades, plus one mobile brigade. Most are stationed in bases close to the Chinese border, in KIO-held strips of territory. One brigade is stationed in northern Shan state, protecting a large Kachin population.
The KIA is funded by the KIO, which raises revenue through taxes (in their area) and trade in jade, timber and gold. Although well equipped for jungle warfare, the KIA has little modern weaponry. Their rifles are a mixture of AK-47s, home-made rifles such as KA-07, and some artillery. KIA headquarters are located outside the town of Laiza, in southern Kachin state near the Chinese border.
The KIA was formed on 5 February 1961 in response to a military coup in Burma led by General Ne Win, who attempted to consolidate Burmese control over regions on the periphery of the state which were home to various ethnic groups. From 1961 through 1994, the KIA fought a gruelling and inconclusive war against the Burmese junta. The KIA initially fought for independence, but changed to seek autonomy within a federal union of Burma.
