Myanmar is not on a path to 'self-destruction' as UN Envoy Julie Bishop states, it is being destroyed by the Myanmar military. That she would frame it this way shows a serious lack of understanding about the country. webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1b/k…

The Burmese military will never change, because the problem is not as simple as this is a military with a power-hungry leader. It is because the Burmese military is an institution which has one main mission, to make Burma a Bamar Buddhist country. It will never accept other

“Starvation has replaced bullets as the main tool of genocide against the Rohingya. US cuts in humanitarian aid are assisting the Burmese military in their genocidal policies of using starvation as a weapon against us.” Tun Khin, President, Burmese Rohingya Organisation UK

“The Arakan Army are committing the same human rights violations as the Burmese military but not facing the same sanctions, which gives them a sense of impunity and emboldens them to carry on,” said Tun Khin. brouk.org.uk/new-report-roh…

Why is the CRPH enacting a law which effectively puts a target on teachers and others? This isn't the way to promote human rights and democracy.

Min Aung Hlaing off to Belarus and Russia again. Flying with MAI again, which still hasn't been sanctioned despite its role transporting Min Aung Hlaing for his shopping trips for arms.

Good to see ABSFU raising concerns about the dreadful new CRPH law effectively putting a target on non-CDM teachers and others. CRPH Myanmar needs to repeal this law and defend human rights, not undermine them.

A short thread on elections and the 'peace' conference. A few days after the 2021 coup, Min Aung Hlaing made a long speech about his post-coup vision, and it was basically a version of the Thein Sein era, but with even greater military control.

Just like every other promise the Burmese military has ever made, they break it. They continue to recruit child soldiers, then when called out, release a few for positive headlines, then carry on as before, see below.

Don’t lift sanctions on Burma- I’m concerned that USA has started lifting sanctions on companies helping to arm and fund the Burmese military. USA should be imposing more sanctions instead. ofac.treasury.gov/recent-actions…
