MYANMAR: FIRST UN AID CONVOY IN 20 MONTHS REACHES DISPLACED IN KACHIN
STATENew York, Sep 10 2013 7:00PMThe first aid convoy in nearly two
years has delivered food, medicine and other supplies to thousands of
displaced people in Myanmar's Kachin state, the United Nations relief
arm today reported.

More than 4,000 people have received food, medicine and other aid from
UN agencies and partner organizations in the Woi Chyai camp in the
town of Laiza.

The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said
that this is the first aid convoy since December 2011.

"The UN and our partners in Myanmar are telling us that it is
essential that this convoy should be the first of many to the area to
help the people there," spokesperson Jens Laerke said in Geneva,
adding that there are 53,000 people in need in areas such as this
which are not controlled by the Government.

OCHA says the relief items will supplement assistance delivered on a
regular basis by local groups and other partners.

In January, the Government announced a unilateral ceasefire following
a three-week offensive against ethnic Kachin rebels. A month later,
the parties held talks in China, where they agreed to work on an
overall framework to de-escalate the conflict.Sep 10 2013 7:00PM
