Nangona kunjalo, ngaphandle kwesithembiso sokukhwela iindlovu kunye nokuhamba emahlathini, abakhenkethi be-eco inkampu efuna ukutsala umdla abafiki kwisizwe esilawulwa ngumkhosi, singasathethi ke ngokukhwela uhambo olude ukuya ePho Kyar ekude.
Abakhenkethi abafikayo eMyanmar baye behla ukusukela oko kwabakho uqhanqalazo luka-2007 oluchasene ne-junta, ngelixa inkanyamba yonyaka ophelileyo kunye noxinzelelo oluvela kumaqela axhasa idemokhrasi phesheya kolwandle ukuba bangalinge ilizwe likwathintele abakhenkethi.
“Sinabakhenkethi abambalwa ngoku,” utshilo umphathi weAsia Green Travels and Tours Company, elungiselela ukhenketho lwepaki yasePho Kyar, ocele ukungachazwa ngegama njengoko engagunyaziswanga ukuba athethe namajelo eendaba.
