The All Kachin Students and Youth Union (AKSYU) was formed in 1996 in India. In 1998, a branch office in the Thai-Burma area was established although AKSYU currently operates on the Indo-Burma, Sino-Burma and Thai-Burma borders. We hope to gain the cooperation of the international community in supporting the Burmese people and applying pressure on the Burmese military regime.
