Ko Naing Soe also recalled that their Spring Tea Family has been raising and donating about USD 15,000 every month for 18 months and that the volunteers from the San Francisco Bay Area who cooked Burmese cuisine put in a lot of effort while providing finance and manpower, and the supporters also bought the food at the gathering points in four nearby cities.
“We contact the self-help local PDFs and the PDF battalions directly and provide support as much as we can. We also provide direct support to the forces in the Karenni region. We try to be able to provide for over 40 groups [every month]. We have also received letters of appreciation from the ground forces, as well as battalions and columns in the Anyar region and the NUG Ministry of Defence,” Ko Naing Soe explained.
