When we WA came to understand that we were being used to kill each other we dicided to revolt. In April 1989 we rejected the BCP leadership and sent the leaders to china. We made a peace agreement with the SLORC in octobet1989 not because of any sympathy with the burmese but to preserve what we had left war weary twenty-two years war weary destitute and opium fependent. We were also left with an army large enough to control our area and to assure a time of peace.
