Khun Sa, once a drug Lord in the Golden Triangle, why can he get a happy ending?

Khun Sa, formerly known as Zhang Qifu, of Thai nationality, 1933, is from Dazhai, Nongzhang, Mount Lemmon, Shan State, Myanmar. When I was a child, I fled abroad. Until 1949, the remnant troops of the Kuomintang fled to the Golden Triangle and lived on opium cultivation. Khun Sa saw the opportunity, sneaked back to the Golden Triangle, married the daughter of a local leader, and became famous in the Golden Triangle. 196 1 year, the remnants of the Kuomintang retreated from Taiwan Province, but some of them were incorporated by Khun Sa and became an army under Khun Sa.

Khun Sa's ranks have been expanding. At the same time, it controls a large area of land in Wa and Shan States, which promotes its opium business. 1967 After World War I with Luo Xinghan, Khun Sa gained more than half of the drug manufacturing rights in the Golden Triangle and controlled most of the drug trafficking business. Two years later, Khun Sa was trapped by the Burmese government. Because of Khun Sa's enormous power, he was released after five years' imprisonment. After he was released from prison, Khun Sa expanded his drug trafficking business step by step. Drug trafficking in Khun Sa is unwilling to be controlled by the Myanmar government after 1984 reached a new height. Shan state was founded independently? Under the banner, openly oppose the government and turn Shan State into the world for himself and his uncle Zhang Suquan? Back garden? .

1993, most of Khun Sa's team was old. Coupled with the constant pressure from the international community and the Myanmar government, Khun Sa's drug trafficking business was hit one after another. Finally, 1996 surrendered to the Myanmar government and died in Yangon in 2007.

Khun Sa lived a poor and glorious life all his life. Finally, he died safely and alive under the care of the Burmese government, which is a happy ending. At that time, the Burmese government was not strong enough to confront Khun Sa head-on, so it was wise to pardon Khun Sa in exchange for the surrender of his subordinates. 1996 Khun Sa was 63 years old, and the Shan people had long been dissatisfied with the high sinicization of Khun Sa Group. Pure Shan State Movement? At this time, it is tantamount to being attacked by the Myanmar government. It is better to surrender to the government and give yourself a secure old age.
