Abstract
 In recent years, a number of unconfirmed reports about illicit nuclear activities in Burma have reached the outside world. This article details the testimony of two defectors who left the country in 2006, and who were extensively interviewed by the author. Both defectors independently claim that they had been involved in aspects of a covert nuclear program with North Korean assistance, with plans for a nuclear reactor not unlike the reactor discovered in Syria in 2007. While their reports remain uncorroborated by additional evidence, they paint a disturbing picture that requires close attention by regional policy makers and intelligence services.
