“He said that Sai Zaw Thaike was tortured for up to a week in Rakhine state and at an interrogation camp in Yangon, Myanmar's biggest city, where the military charged the photojournalist, allegedly taking advantage of the city's martial law to implement a steeper punishment.”

It’s hard to believe 35 years have passed since the people of Burma were brutally oppressed in their quest for a democratically led nation.

Finished the book! It took 3.5 months or an average of 2.5 pages a day. I could have been quicker but was keeping a list of unfamiliar or interesting vocabulary in #ThaiLanguage plus I went off on many tangents to look up information.

The book discusses recent events in #Myanmar (though was written before the coup in 2021). The English language title is The Hidden History of Burma: Race, Capitalism, and the Crisis of Democracy in the 21st Century.

Now time for something less heavy...

Despite decades of Tatmadaw invoked slaughter; despite UN imploring States to launch concerted combined efforts against the Tatmadaw for their ongoing slaughter; Australia will eventually get around to it.....maybe

クーデター発生以来、ミャンマー情勢をずっと見ておって、軍政に反対して兵隊に抗議したりデモをしたり還俗して国民防衛隊に入る僧侶とか、逆に軍政に協力して高級軍人と法会を催したり兵隊に訓示したりする僧侶の姿はよく見てきたんじゃが、僧衣のまま銃火器で戦う"僧兵"は初めて見たのじゃ。ちょっとびっくりしたのじゃ。

#Myanmar (#Burma) 🇲🇲: Armed Monks affiliated with People's Defense Forces (#PDF) ambushed three #Tatmadaw Soldiers in Patheingyi, #Mandalay Region.

The monks seem to be armed with a Chinese Type 56 rifle, Turkish Derya Arms MK-12 shotgun and AKM rifle.

Anarchists struggle in Burma
a member of Rebel Riots, burmese Punk Anarchist band holding Black Flag

"This article explains how anarchism used to be in #Burma and how it's developing at the moment. This article informs how the anarchist movements in Burma were misdirected by divisive neoliberal identity politics and how they're being claimed back by the anarchists from a class-based intersectional perspective."

A new #Introduction now I’ve got to grips with my home here from the #birdsite! I’m a #Historian fascinated with all things #FirstWorldWar and #SecondWorldWar. My research also dips into #AnimalHistory looking at #equine use in #WW1 and #WW2. I’m passionate about making #MilitaryHistory engaging and you will sometimes see me on #TV or #podcasts chatting about things from the #SAS and #Burma to #Waterloo and the #Somme. I also work in the vintage #Aircraft restoration industry. @histodons

One of my other areas of research is #Burma during #SecondWorldWar. In this photo, Cpl Allison of the R.A.C examines Japanese war graves, February 1945 #Histodons @histodons
