Welcome to KNO information website!

The Kachin National Organization is a political organization founded on the 9th of January 1999. This formation was the result of extensive discussion between the overseas Kachins and the elders from the Kachin homeland.

Since the cease-fire agreement on the 24th of February 1994, the Burmese military dictatorship has steadily built up more garrisons in our country with the clear intention to continue and establish military occupation.

Contrary to the people's expectations, the Kachin homeland today is without security due to the lack of definitive political policies. There is no economic opportunity amidst rampant inflation and people are reduced to the lowest level of subsistence. Equally lacking are proper healthcare and education.

This is an insidious destruction of the Kachins and at the same time a devious way of identifying the Kachinland with Burma.

The main goals of the Kachin National Organization are to regain the inalienable rights of people by establishing an independent Kachinland and restore their pride and freedom.

Thank you.
