1. The Union Prime Minister says that the military council is now at its weakest point in history and that now is the best time for it to collapse
At the Cabinet Meeting (6/2023) of the National Unity Government held on February 14, Union Prime Minister Mahn Winn Khine Thann said that the military council is at its weakest, as follows:
“Actually, everyone realizes that the military council is now at its weakest point in history, and now is the best time for it to collapse. At this time, it is true that we [all revolutionary forces] need to have stronger alliances and agreements between us.”
Furthermore, the Union Prime Minister also directed the National Unity Government to prepare the sectors that require preparation and give full effort to the sectors that require effort.
2. NUG’s Defence Minister U Yee Mon says that the Spring Revolution is being staged not with the strength of the NUG alone but with the strength of the ethnic resistance organizations.
In an interview in February, Defence Minister U Yee Mon said that the National Unity Government (NUG) is collaborating with the ethnic resistance organisations (EROs) to stage the Spring Revolution, as follows:
“The spring revolution is not being staged solely on the strength of the NUG. Our People’s Defence Force (PDF) is collaborating with the ethnic resistance organisations under a single systematic command and control system. As the military regional commanders—the heads of the military regions formed jointly by the NUG and the EROs—the veteran senior military leaders of the EROs are in charge.”
The National Unity Government is putting in place a command and control system and arming forces based on military zones.
3. NUG’s Union Minister Dr. Tu Hkawng says that every political party that supports the interests of the general public has no reason to participate in Min Aung Hlaing’s sham election
On February 15, Union Minister Dr. Tu Hkawng wrote on social media the following regarding the sham election to be held by military junta leader Min Aung Hlaing:
“Every political party that supports the interests of the people has no reason to participate in the election that will be held by Min Aung Hlaing, and there is no reason for them to support it. It is wrong in terms of democratic principles to accept Min Aung Hlaing’s principles merely because one dislikes the NLD party.”
The terrorist military junta has announced it will hold a sham election in 2023.
“We are not revolutionizing person; rather, we are revolutionizing principle. We are revolutionizing the principle of eternal military slavery imposed by the junta led by Min Aung Hlaing. Any person or organization that supports that principle may become the enemy of the revolution,” continued the Union Minister.
4. NUG provided emergency relief money to the bereaved families of innocent civilians who were abducted and killed by the military council
On February 14, the Pale Township People’s Administration Group said that it had given the NUG’s emergency relief money provided to the bereaved families of innocent civilians who were abducted and killed by the military council, as follows:
“On July 11, 2022, the Pale Township People’s Administration group, along with the Pale Township humanitarian officer, visited and gave emergency relief money provided by the National Unity Government to bereaved family members of the innocent civilians who were abducted and killed by the military council in Pale Township.”
Pale Township People’s Administration group is providing humanitarian assistance in a timely manner with the guidance of the National Unity Government.
5. The second meeting on the issue of CDMers will be held on February 19
The CDM Success Committee under the National Unity Government said that the second meeting on the issue of CDMers will be held on February 19.
Union Prime Minister Mahn Winn Khine Thann and CRPH representatives will attend the meeting.
The CDM Success Committee held the second-year anniversary celebration of the Civil Disobedience Movement on February 8, and over 1,300 civil servants participating in the Civil Disobedience Movement (CDM) attended.
6. The former commander of the 44th Infantry Division of the terrorist military, who was appointed by the junta as a township militia leader and who was proclaiming he would “drag and arrest the PDF members,” was cleared
The Special Operation Force (S.O.F) of the Ministry of Home Affairs and Immigration claimed on February 15 as follows:
“As part of Operation Nan Htike Aung, the S.O.F troops entered the Ngwe Hlyan tea shop in the south part of Yinn Nyein village, Paung Township, Mon State, and cleared Myint Yee (aka) Pawpi, the leader of the Paung Township junta-backed militia, who was proclaiming he would ‘drag and arrest the PDF members’ at about 7:15 a.m. this morning.”
Although other members of the Pyu Saw Htee junta-backed militia were presented inside the tea shop, only Myint Yee was able to clear due to a scarcity of weapons and ammunition, and the enemy’s weapons could not be seized, said the S.O.F.
7. Junta troops that spent the night in Laung Shey village, Khin-U Township, torched Laung Shey village this morning
According to local news sources, junta troops that spent the night in Laung Shey village, Khin-U Township, set fire to the village on the morning of February 15, as follows:
“Terrorist military troops that spent the night in Laung Shey village, Khin-U Township, set fire to Long Shey village early this morning again.”
The village was set on fire by junta troops the day they entered it, and today was the second arson attack.
