On the occasion of the Buddhist new year, the Maymar military government released 23.000 prisoners from overcrowded prisons. Critics fear that the military government wants to use the free space to imprison political enemies.
Normally the Buddhist new year is celebrated in temples and at street festivals. Because of the Corona pandemic, the enemies of the Military government have called to support the campaign to reinstate the elected government. On Friday the opposition of the Military government proclaimed a new government.
