I am touched by the fact that such a large population of Naga tribes live in the Myanmar side of Nagaland. Unlike Indian Nagaland where Christianity has a strong presence, the religion/faith followed by the Myanmar Nagas is not known. Will someone enlighten me on this ?

These are my people, tribe. but I live accross the border in India and have never been there. Excellent work.
