From BangkokPost and Irrawaddy--Kavi Chongkittavorn --Burmese refugees in limbo--"Thailand must find a way to involve Burmese refugees in Thai society"

I've met Kavi on several occasions on the Burmese Democracy Circuit, most recently in Seoul. At that time c 2003 he was discouraged and saying he would not write in Thai anymore.
I'm glad he still writes. He is someone who honestly wants better Thai-Burmese/Myanmar relations.
