The Kokang people ({{zh|c=果敢族|p=Guǒgǎn Zú}}; {{lang-my|ကိုးကန့်လူမျိုး}}) are an ethnic group of Myanmar. They are Mandarin-speaking Han Chinese[1] living in Kokang, administered as Kokang Special Region (now Kokang Self-Administered Zone).[2]

Distribution

In 1997, it was estimated that the Kokang people, together with more recently immigrated Yunnanese, constituted 30 to 40 percent of Myanmar's ethnic Chinese population. They constitute around 0.1% of Myanmar's population.[3]

History

Most Kokang are descendants of Chinese speakers who migrated to what is now Shan State in the 18th century. In the mid-17th century, the Yang clan, a Chinese military house that fled with the Ming loyalists from Nanjing to Yunnan Province, and later migrated to the Shan State in eastern Myanmar, formed a feudal state called Kokang. From the 1960s to 1989, the area was ruled by the Communist Party of Burma, and after the dissolution of that party in 1989 it became a special region of Myanmar.

The Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army (MNDAA) is a Kokang insurgent group. In August 2009 they clashed with Tatmadaw soldiers in a conflict fanned by controversial interests known as the 2009 Kokang incident.[4]
