The Generation-Z youth and the entire public will have to work together to continue to fight the revolution of the 88 Generation and defeat the dictator.”

At the 34th anniversary ceremony of the 8888 Uprising held by the National League for Democracy (NLD) on 8 August, Union Prime Minister Mahn Winn Khaing Thann remarked, “In successive revolutions, for the benefit of a dictatorial group, the terrorist military tried to control the people through fear by killing the public, from Maung Phone Maw, and Ma Win Maw Oo to Ma Mya Thwae Thwae Khaing and Ma Kyal Sin, but we could see that those efforts bore no result in any generation. The military dictators might think they had won the dictatorship revolutions in the past. In fact, they are facing a mass revolution with strong collective power that has been handed down for many generations is only because they did not succeed. History proved that dictators who are cruel to the people never end well.”
After the military coup on 1 February 2021, the terrorist military arrested over ten thousand people and tortured and killed over two thousand.

A young woman buys 88 shares of EOD in the name of ‘8888’
On 8 August, the EOD reported the ticket sale as: “Pass the Spirit of 8888 like a torch! Not coincidentally, at 8 am (Singapore time) on the 8th day of the 8th month, we received a purchase order of EOD shares. It was an order of 88 shares and the name (nickname) of the buyer is 8888.
What she celebrated and what spirit she carried forward was so obvious that it needed no explanation. We do not know the buyer girl and according to EOD’s principle, neither the EOD team nor the Agent knows the buyer’s full profile and real name. But, based on the message she sent that she consulted her mother before buying this, we can guess she was a Gen-Z or Gen-Y.”
