What's happening in Myanmar - Looking back to look forward



Through this 13 minute documentary videoclip made of a montage of selected photo slides, on the 2 years anniversary of the illegal and unsuccessful military coup in Myanmar, we look back to look forward. It started off as a peaceful protest by the citizens against the coup but the brutal suppression of the protesters by the military transformed it into an armed uprising. Compared to the 1988 uprising which led to the first wave of Myanmar refugees across the globe, this Myanmar Spring Revolution carries a far wider implication. For the first time, the military doesn't seems invincible. A very dedicated armed resistance is now taking place in many parts of Myanmar including at the central Bamar lands for the first time. Despite the valiant efforts by the Myanmar revolutionaries, unlike Ukraine, Myanmar resistance has no international supporters, at least in terms of funding and materials. Only the sympathetic EROs are assisting and collaborating. An unstable Burma could lead to a much wider SE Asia regional instability too. We call upon the international community in helping more after realizing what is truly happening in Myanmar through watching this slideshow video.
