TAK, THAILAND - JUNE 5: Pah Taw sits on a chair at the Karen Handicapped Welfare Association dormitory inside the Mae La refugee camp June 5, 2012 in Tak province, Thailand. Pah Taw lost his sight and his hands due to a land mine explosion while he was a soldier with the KNU. The refugee camp is situated along the Burma-Thailand border and is home to around 50,000 refugees. Mae La is the largest of nine camps along the Thai border where the Burmese live in a stateless limbo for many years. Aung San Suu Kyi recently visited the camp during her first visit to Thailand in 24 years. She spoke briefly assuring that she would strive to bring about positive change and more cooperation from Thai authorities. (Photo by Paula Bronstein/Getty Images)
