    Time Out With Taang Rebels
    By JPAING / THE IRRAWADDY On Thursday, July 10, 2014 @ 8:00 am
    The ethnic Palaung, also known as the Taang, are a hill tribe people mostly living in
    northern Shan State. Like many other ethnic groups, they have waged an armed
    struggle against the Burmese government since 1963.After the Palaung State
    Liberation Organization signed a ceasefire with the former military government in
    1991 (and disarmed in 2005), another Palaung army known as the Taang National
    Liberation Army (TNLA) was established by the Palaung State Liberation Front
    (PSLF) to continue the fight for equality and self-determination.With 1,500 troops
    today, the TNLA has no fixed headquarters but runs mobile operations in
    northern Shan State. They fight alongside other ethnic rebel groups, including the
    Kachin Independence Army (KIA) and the Shan State Army (SSA).

    President Thein Seins government has met with PSLF and TNLA leaders at least two
    times, most recently in 2013, in a bid to strengthen trust, but clashes have
    continued.The KIA and the TNLA are the only ethnic armed groups that do not
    currently have bilateral ceasefires with the government.
