Waiting for the owner to return 

Everyday Kachin note : 
If the people who were displaced were to return to their village, they will only find a landscape of destruction such as this one. If the civil war stopped and made their area a safe place again, it is not only the houses that need to be rebuild but the entire village community that was lost during the conflict.

Freelance miners rushing alongside the company big trucks as they enter the government-licensed mining site to find jade during the company one hour break in Hpakant, Kachin State, Myanmar on May 21, 2019. Following along the miners inside, we walked for 30 minutes and because of the depth of the ground, breathing became hard. The miners were guarded by the police and military as they dug during the company breaks.

Everyday Kachin note : 
China started to build the wall on its border with Kachinland around 2008. 
When covid hit, China dug up the roads with bulldozers and after that, the building continued for a year during the pandemic. 
With the coup on February 1st 2021, weary of a massive refugee flow, the country sped up construction to a level probably only possible by China. China has a near 0 refugee policy.

Along the banks of the Mali Hka (Irrawaddy) River, Along the banks of the Mali Hka (Irrawaddy) River, people dry freshly caught fish while panning for gold.
Due to the high volume of mercury used in gold mining, the population of fish is disappearing in this river. 
( Artist original caption) 

Mali Hka River is in the world's top 20 most voluminous rivers. China is building a mega dam a few kilometers upstream, to export power back.
This will not only affect fishing and livelihood but also submerge the confluence, a sacred place to the Kachin people.
