Laiza

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Laiza is a city in Myanmar, on the border with China. A village prior to 1994, it became one of the most important cities in Kachin State after KIO made a cease-fire agreement with the State Peace and Development Council (SPDC). The ruling military government is demanding to hand-over Laiza and Mai Ja Yang, cities built by the cease-fire group before implementation of the new constitution drawn in the favor of military junta of Burma.
