Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 25/11/2025One would think it is forged or fake. Sadly, it is true. Is it the official position of the US that the elections will be “free and fair”? NPT is probably celebrating. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar 000

Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 11/08/20252 - We were told that some Western countries thought it would be a good idea to support AA resuming tourism in #Ngapali to support “the” revolution. You have to be delusional to think it is a smart idea. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar 000
Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 11/08/20251 - @fortifyrights.bsky.social is doing fantastic work in #Rakhine on the atrocities committed against the Rohingya people who are suffering between Scylla and Charybdis. 100

Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 10/08/2025Let’s make an assumption. The junta hired a lobbying firm to remove Kyaw Moe Tun as the #Myanmar UN permanent representative. This report from @amnesty.org tells us that the Trump administration seems to care as much as Min Aung Hlaing about human rights. www.amnestyusa.org/press-releas...amnestyusa.orgLeaked U.S. State Department Human Rights Report Reveals Alarming Omissions on Global ViolationsThis year’s report has been manipulated by the Trump administration to not accurately reflect the ongoing and grave violations of human rights, and that’s deeply troubling. 031

Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 03/08/2025As we had time to kill, we listened to two recent episodes of @insightmyanmar.bsky.social - quite boring. The host is not a journalist, I get it. But gosh, spending 40+ minutes with Turnell to get banalities, misleading and half-baked insights, and complacency—thanks but no thanks. 000

Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 01/08/2025Are EAOs liable against International Laws due to the destruction and pollution induced by their (lack of) governance? 000
Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 01/08/2025In addition to this, we have new laws enacted now (Cybersecurity and Elections), the end of the State of Emergency, a 40% tariff on exports to the US, some crap around rare earths, etc. Business as usual. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar 010
Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 31/07/2025This is the case in other areas, too. Civilians are caught between armed groups, and no good option but to suffer. Of course, the situation for the Rohingya is unacceptable and tragic — their suffering is immense. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar 000
Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 25/07/2025#WhatsHappeningInMyanmar The US lifted some targeted #sanctions against some entities and individuals. What will other partners do?

Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 08/07/2025Reading the reactions to Trump’s letter to MAH is quite funny and pathetic. Sean Turnell is leading the pack on this, as he did after the recent article published by @economist.com #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar 000

Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 04/06/2025That’s your opinion. We are not experts on constitutional matters. But this might not be how things unfold soon. 100
Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 04/06/2025We agree that the UN is useless. You need to face the harsh reality, too. Some EAOs and NSAGs are behaving as poorly as the #Myanmar military. Ignoring this because it does fit your narrative hinders your position. 100

Ma Thibu @mathibu.bsky.social · 04/06/2025Thanks for sharing. If Sagaing is "governed" by resistance forces, one would expect to see a decrease in the number of protests, no? Likewise, other "liberated" areas do not have many protests. Why? What makes Sagaing so specific? 000
