Description

With Werner Eggert and Mratt Kyaw Thu

Journalism in Myanmar has never been an easy endeavor. But since the coup d'état on 1 February 2021 things went from bad to worse. A lot of journalists have been jailed or fleed the country. The media landscape is split into supporters of the military and supporters of the National Unity Government and the so-called revolution. Space for unbiased reporting is severly limited.
