Lamka as a multi-ethnic town is a fact no body doubt about it.Based on this reasoning, having one particular dialect for AIR link-language may sound unfair, agreed. But it may as well be acknowledged that, the multi-ethnic Lamka town would not have existed without the daring spirits of Zenhang Valte and Phung Kho Thang who were the first settlers. Consequently, for those who think with a neutral and rational mind, the logic behind the choice of a dialect for the first ever AIR in town is justified. Its not about Paite, Thadou, Hmar, bla, bla, bla..... its not about politics neither! Its the outcome of decades long and thorough researched decision, which deserves respect if not cheers!
