Named for a courageous Russian freedom fighter of World War II, Zoya was fourteen when Burmese aircraft bombed her peaceful village, forcing her and her family to flee through the jungles to a refugee camp just over the border in Thailand. After being trapped in refugee camps for years in poverty and despair, her family scattered: as her father became more deeply involved in the struggle for freedom, Zoya and her sister left their mother in the camp to go to a college in Bangkok to which they had won scholarships. But even as she attended classes, Zoya, the girl from the jungle, had to dodge police and assume an urban disguise, as she was technically an illegal immigrant and subject to deportation. Although, following graduation, she obtained a comfortable job with a major communications company in Bangkok, Zoya felt called back to Burma to help her mother and her people, millions of whom still have to live on the run today in order to survive—in fact, more villages have been destroyed in eastern Burma than in Darfur, Sudan.
After a plot to kill her was uncovered, in 2004 Zoya escaped to the United Kingdom, where she began speaking at political conferences and demonstrations—a mission made all the more vital by her father’s assassination in 2008 by agents of the Burmese regime. Like Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Zoya has become a powerful spokesperson against oppressors, undaunted by dangers posed to her life. Zoya’s love of her people, their land, and their way of life fuels her determination to survive, and in Undaunted she hauntingly brings to life a lost culture and world, putting faces to the stories of the numberless innocent victims of Burma’s military
I found Zoya Phan's book in a bookstore in the Bangkok airport. I'd practically read the entire book before the plane landed in the USA. Her descriptions of life in Burma from her early years echoed the many stories I heard from Karen refugees. In particular, I was inspired by her quest for education under unimaginable hardships and constant interruptions caused by having to flee the SPDC (military junta's armed forces). Karen students I spoke with see her as an inspiration and a role model to emulate. They are so proud of her.
All the ethnic groups and the ordinary burmese citizens of Burma need the support of the rest of the world to achieve the freedom, justice and fair rule of law they deserve. The world community needs to actively proceed against the egregious human rights abuses perpetrated by the generals in power (forced labor, rape, misuse of natural resources, mismanagement of the nations assets, genocide and ethnic cleansing). Although I'm hardly encouraged... read more
These people are true survivors. It helped me understand what these poor souls been though. My heart goes out to them.
Zoya Phan is a true leader in today's world. She is following in her father's footsteps. what a privilege
to read her book.
