” If people are leaving the airport, they have to go through testing. So those who are already on the conscription list wo n’t be able to leave the country.

” And even in domestic flights, buying cards nowadays requires confirmation from local government. These are therefore a part of the restrictions that the current government may impose on young people to stop them from leaving the nation.

DRONES ON THE Field

Army captain Min Aung Hlaing is increasingly requesting from his followers to step down despite military efforts to strengthen its grip. &nbsp,

Following a string of battle defeats for the troops in a massive insulting by rebel groups that started in October of last year, dubbed Operation 1027, the 67-year-old’s leadership has been in doubt.

However, for the time being, watchers are not anticipating significant changes.

” Probability- sensible, that kind of revolt, we may not see at this point”, said Dr Min Zaw Oo. &nbsp,

” But the situation could change very fast in the military, and the condition could change very rapidly among the top leadership.”
