Tue, 17 Jan 2012 06:30:02 +0100 (Reuters) - Lin Zuluan, a representative from the village of Wukan in Lufeng county, Guangdong province, prepares to speak to members of the international media at his home in this December 21, 2011 file photograph. Lin, aged 65, was named the new Communist Party head of the Wukan village on January 15, 2012, state news agency Xinhua said, after he led violent protests for ten days over confiscated farmland and the death of a protest organiser in Wukan drew global media attention as a dramatic rebuff to the stability-obsessed government. The appointment as village head is seen as a unique move by Beijing as it grapples with thousands of such protests nationwide. REUTERS/David Gray/Files (CHINA - Tags: SOCIETY MILITARY CIVIL UNREST)

Myanmar's government opened peace talks with KNU on Thursday to try to end the country's longest-running rebellion as part of a drive to strike ceasefire deals with all its ethnic separatist groups. Both the government and the 19-member KNU delegation were optimistic that deals could be reached later in the day on three key areas on the agenda, which would be a small step towards the lifting of two decades of Western sanctions on Myanmar.
