Abstract

The Peking-backed Burmese Communist Party (BCP) appears poised to launch a major new military offensive against the Government of President Ne Win, little more than a month after the conclusion of a State visit to Burma by Chinese Vice-Premier Teng Hsiao-ping. Knowledgeable sources here report that BCP units are expected to move shortly against two of the most strategically placed towns in northeastern Burma, Kunlong and Hsenwi.
