Conclusion
摘要
In summary, this book concludes that the outbreak of “Operation 1027” was characterized by significant contingency; yet, its consequences have been profound (ICG, 2024a; ISP Myanmar, 2024; The Irrawaddy, 2024b, August 31). The operation successfully established a new system of governance in the northern region of Myanmar (Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army, 2024; SHAN, 2024), in stark contrast to the “ceasefire capitalism” governance model upon which the Myanmar military (Tatmadaw) has long relied to maintain order in the borderlands (Kramer, 2009; Woods, 2011).
