Burma obtained its independence from colonial rule in 1948, though the Pa-Oh people have not yet obtained freedom from the suppression and unfair political systems that have riddled the region for centuries. In response to this, the Pa-oh were compelled to form the Pa-Oh National Liberation Organization (PNLO) on 11th December 1949 and began the first revolutionary movement to fight for the libera
tion of Pa-Oh people. After some structure and ideological progression, the PNLO was reformed on November 18th, 2007. We strive to coordinate with every ethnic community in order to reach our common goals:
-The liberation of each and every ethnic person from suppression
-The complete eradication of military dictatorship, suppression, and civil war, in the hopes of building a peaceful federal union which fully practices a democratic system of government.
