here you can see mwami in relation to mchinji
along with the purported no mans land of kachebele or
kachebere that lies in between them

however
http://www.nrzam.plus.com/Site%20Resources/Religion/Kacheb
ere/Kachebere2.jpg
claims to show the actual mwzm border in kachebere
precisely where the purported no mans land is supposed to be
the border does at least appear to be uncontrolled here
so perhaps this is a soft frontier with a de facto neutral zone
surrounding the kachebele mission on all sides
if not comprising everything between mchinji & mwami
since these are both referred to in the article as border towns
regardless of their considerable distance from the boundary

river.
the above multimap swatch shows the river too
paralleling the border on the malawi side
but all the mentioned places are well to one side of it
so a river alone doesnt seem a sufficient explanation
but maybe the mission itself is a more probable cause of a
suspension of normal border protocols
& of an informal pocket or easement area surrounding it
but having no de jure reality
such an anomaly might have come to be called a no mans land
or a neutral zone
or whatever
yet without any express definition of it as such
in any case it will be interesting to see if the migration really
proves to be international
as well as what this supposedly restricted area is all about
