Despite the recent "amnesty" in Myanmar, thousands of political prisoners remain in detention. The junta continues to ban protests, silence the independent media, shoot at the now-rare protester, and fight a very dirty war against insurgents.
The ordeal of 12 Filipinos forced into a cryptocurrency scam by Chinese mafia in Myanmar is just one of thousands of human trafficking stories in Southeast Asia.

#Feb27Coup: Monywa. Unbelievable scenes of Myanmar military beating up civilians. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
Dr. Sasa says he was with Aung San Suu Kyi on the morning of February 1, when a military coup took over Myanmar’s government. He tells me he had to dress as a taxi driver to escape, and it took him three days and three nights to reach relative safety.

The world’s attention must remain on Myanmar, where I’ve been appalled by heartbreaking violence against civilians and inspired by the nationwide movement that represents the voice of the people.
We shouldn't call it a "battle zone" (as this article does) when the Myanmar junta's security forces fire live ammunition at unarmed pro-democracy demonstrators. It's slaughter. And a horrible crime.
“Stop kidnapping at night" is the latest message from Myanmar anti-coup protesters. “Our nights aren’t safe anymore” and “Myanmar military is kidnapping people at night” have circulated widely on social media.
The Chinese government continues to cover for the Myanmar junta. Beijing insisted on revising last week's UN Human Rights council resolution to remove calls to bolster a UN rights expert's ability to investigate the army's human rights violations.
Beijing pretends it stands with the people of Myanmar, but each night for more than a week unregistered flights have been transporting unknown goods and personnel from China to Myanmar. The junta "is trying very hard to hide the flights."
