Just noticed something sad.

Thanks to the time difference between UK and Myanmar, I’d normally see birthday greetings on my Facebook wall from my family and friends by now.

But this year my wall is empty, because for the 67th night in a row, there is no internet in Myanmar 😭 https://twitter.com/netblocks/status/1384942330361401347
And yes, my Facebook wall being empty is such a stupid, small thing, but at the same time, it’s disorientating, and just another reason to say fuck the coup.
Btw, Myanmar Gen Z, I am in my 40s, so please stop calling me MiMi and at least call me အမ/Ama 😅
It’s my birthday today!

It’s my 2nd one in lockdown and my 1st one (last one 🤞) during the coup.

Here’s a thread on some ways that you can show me that you care 😁

Tweet Monsieur @PPouyanne @total and sign this petition asking them to withhold any payments in kind or in cash from the junta!

He doesn’t seem to understand that genocide is worse than the risk of enforced labour.

We all hate emails!

So let’s send them to @DominicRaab until he gets so annoyed he does the following:

✔️Build support for global arms embargo vs Myanmar
✔️Support referral to the ICC
✔️Joins Rohingya genocide case at the ICJ

UK Must Support Global Arms Embargo

Will you email Dominic Raab today, calling on him to build a global arms embargo and support international courts putting the generals on trial for their crimes?

You can also email your own MP to ask them to support an EDM regarding that course of action to resist military rule!

It’s a super-easy, automated form!
