With the right help from the rest of world, Burma has every chance to become not only a federal democracy but a peaceful, prosperous, and multicultural society. Country is at an historic inflection and there is absolutely no going back.
Will we allow the military to destabilize the region, plunging Burma into further violence and chaos?
Or will we hear the calls of the Burmese people, and help them achieve the free, democratic, and peaceful country they deserve?
To me, the answer is clear. We must act.
How the Myanmar junta brainwashes & controls the military into killing civilians.

A recap from yesterday across Myanmar, at least 459 people have been murdered since Feb 1.

The Junta terrorists are getting worse day by day. Openly committing crimes. We request international organizations and community to intervene and take serious actions against terrorists. #WhatsHappeninglnMyanmar#R2PNow#Mar21Coup#OpCCP
Video sent to me shows what happened in Hlaing Thayar, industrial zone in #Yangon earlier. After more than 7 hours now residents there tell me #Myanmar#military forces still shooting & been doing so non-stop today. Unclear number of deaths/injuries there #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
Although formally ceding power to civilians, the Myanmar military has long operated "without civilian oversight." Having violently chased 700,000 Rohingya to Bangladesh, the military has now brought similar tactics..to cities and towns around the country." https://t.co/kxkZ38QHKp
Am told many areas in #Yangon#Myanmar unable to access data via mobile services. Different screens show various Telcos with low or no signals. Many reliant on home WiFi now. During protests, many have been streaming live videos of violence from ground #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
The junta opened fire indiscriminately into a crowd killing at least 6 protestors in Myaing.
The UN security council "condemned violence against peaceful protestors" only a day before. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar#Mar11Coup#R2PforMyanmar
