http://www.voanews.com/burmese/news/soldier-talk/12_25_10_soldiers_talk040-112445674.html

unofficial summary -

bombs and grenades have uneven walls and defective gunpowder due to theft and corruption -

fell short of target, killing 400 "friendly" Wa forces around 2002 when Wa were forced to march in front.

This was before the border guard force disputes between Wa and Burma forces, starting abt 2008.
