4. U Min Ko Naing says that while the fascist military was focused on its military issues, its financial stronghold collapsed
“The opposition of the populace, the systematic efforts of the multi-ethnic revolutionaries, and the various struggles of everyone who rejects military enslavement have brought about collective international financial measures,” U Min Ko Naing stated on social media on August 31.
“The fascist military group, whose financial stronghold collapsed while they were focused on military issues, knows themselves so well that it cannot be blatant like before anymore. They will not spare fuel, consumer goods, or crop traders because they will retaliate on nearby people like they used to do every time they are hit in the core,” said U Min Ko Naing while urging the traders to take the people’s side, saying, “Not taking the side of the people’s revolution at this kind of time is the same as waiting docilely.”
The military council is experiencing a foreign currency crisis due to the United States’s sanctions on its two banks, the MFTB and MICB.
The revolutionaries are urging the public to take part in the financial warfare and to boycott military-related products such as Myanmar Beer, Dagon Beer, and Ruby cigarettes.
