It’s been a year since my rescue. Since I got my freedom back. A year has passed, but it feels like nothing has changed. We’re still at war. We still have hostages clinging on to their lives, each day, each minute, a living hell. Hostages who are starving, held in unbearable

Great to see this protest on 8 June outside the #China embassy in Washington by Burmese exiles, demanding that #Beijing stop interfering in #Myanmar & blatantly supporting the SAC military dictatorship. Since too many people inside #Burma are still silenced, it's Burmese people

The first episode of Echonomics is out! Hear how the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis began with a currency issue in Thailand and toppled markets throughout the region. #asia #markets #currencycrisis csis.org/podcasts/echon…

9 million Iranians live outside of Iran, mostly in western countries. As tensions rise between the US & Israel vs the terrorist Islamic Republic occupying Iran, ask yourself this: How many anti-west demonstrations have you seen by Iranians? The answer: ZERO Ask yourself why.

So many Iranians within Iran are celebrating this too, in spite of anxieties around what might come next. How the Iranian street will react will be crucial

Isn't it telling? Those in the West who are outraged and grieving for the terrorist IRGC in Iran remain completely silent when the same IRGC kills, tortures, rapes, and blinds the Iranian people.

This 19th June is 80th Birthday of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi. Suu 80 birthday campaign has already received over 40,000 videos of people wishing her HBD. This will break Guinness record. People can still send videos to campaign Facebook page. #Suu80

Spare a thought for those who sit, right now, in the dungeons, solitary confinement cells and interrogation facilities of IRGC-intel and MOIS. We used to imagine this sort of thing back there years ago, with a mix of trepidation and hope. How terrifying it must be to be locked

This is the most striking opening paragraph on Israel-Iran war so far John Spencer : ‘Imagine if Operation Overlord in World War II began with the elimination of Field Marshal Wilhelm Keitel, Chief of the German High Command; Heinrich Himmler, head of the SS; Field Marshal

Exclusive from me & Tin Htet Paing: 🧵1/4: We've obtained daily routine logs + courtroom footage of ousted #Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi — just ahead of her 80th birthday, which she’ll mark in military custody. #whatshappeninginMyanmar theguardian.com/world/2025/jun…

Thank you, Guardian for publishing this a day before her 80th birthday when the world has forgotten her and painted her and 50 millions of Myanmar people as chauvinist Buddhists. theguardian.com/world/2025/jun…

URGENT: Now seems to be confirmed that Daw Aung San Suu Kyi was injured in the March 28 earthquake, and that she continues to be poorly treated by Myanmar’s military junta. See Press Release just issued by the Suu Foundation. Other sources confirm this to be so.
