#Myanmar#military has ordered oxygen producing plants such as one in #Yangon to stop selling oxygen refills/supplies to citizens. Military wants the supplies to go directly to hospitals This as crowds buying oxygen for #covid19 patients continue to grow #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
Here is a translation of my address to the UN Human Rights Council where I conclude that the world must summon the courage of the people of Myanmar and choose the path of meaningful and sustained action.
Time is short and the stakes could not be higher.

Not only the coup leaders are ignorant of the pandemic wave but they are also disturbing the volunteers relentlessly. They shot volunteer ambulances at night and limited access to oxygen plants. WE NEED HELP FOR COVID-19 #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar#MyanmarNeedsO2
Today is shaping up to be a big protest day in #Myanmar. Three months since the coup, and more than 750 killed by the military, but opposition has not waned and many are taking to the streets despite the dangers. At least person is reported to have been shot dead this morning.
“People in Burma are not asking for humanitarian aid, but for the international community to stand for the truth. The statement does not deter terrorist atrocities against unarmed civilians,” says @aapp_burma brief after @ASEAN https://t.co/D6lO6Fbanv #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
While Myanmar "soldiers have picked off unarmed protesters with devastating head shots; rounded up politicians, torturing some to death; and killed scores of children," the Chinese government has blocked strong UN Security Council action. https://t.co/dzdjU8ewPL
In meeting with the UN envoy on the side of the ASEAN summit, Myanmar junta chief Sen Gen Min Aung Hlaing defended the coup by citing "massive fraud" in the November election that no one else has seen and for which he has never shown any proof. #TheBigLie https://t.co/IUKUlTTO5z
#Myanmar citizens out to protest against #militarycoup in #Yangon. But their strategies now have been that they decide last minute on locations, conduct quick demonstrations & disperse in various directions before getting detected/arrested by authorities #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
I am releasing an open letter to Min Aung Hlaing asking if he will honor his ASEAN Summit commitment to an "immediate cessation of violence," and order forces under his command to stop attacking those exercising their right to protest his coup and junta. https://t.co/sWC30LSdx8
Finding ever-creative ways to avoid getting shot, Myanmar protesters "made the Easter egg a symbol of defiance on Sunday, posting pictures of eggs with slogans after a night of candle-lit vigils across the country to remember those killed since the" coup. https://t.co/YbiH5LsvUf
People in Myanmar launched what is being called “Easter Egg Strike” on Sunday, painting and writing anti-military slogans on eggs as a symbol of defiance. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
Our people's creativities, braveries and courages are the future of Myanmar. Easter is all about the future, the people of Myanmar has great future in federal democracy, May this Easter bring the new hope and strength to United States of Myanmar.

No free&fair elections in Hong Kong anymore. Candidates are vetted by political police. Most seats are reserved for pro-CCP colluders.
Democracy is denied and citizens are humiliated, showing how CCP destroys civility and liberties. The world should act now.

Amazing meeting with our brothers, leaders of Rohinga communities from around the world. Together we will deliver justice for our Rohinga brothers and sisters who have suffered so much under this same military generals who have killed almost 300 unarmed civilians since 1 Feb.
Very fruitful meeting again with UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights situations in Myanmar, Hon Thomas. H Andrews and Roger P from Yale University law School and Harvard University.
“This is a long and tiring fight. We must fight together along this path to democracy,” said Attapon Buapat “Change has begun. They could only slow it down but never stop it.”
