I am 15 years old korean. My hometown is Gwangju and in 1980, we were similar to the situation in Myanmar. There was a president at the time of the coup. We kept resisting to protect democracy. At that time, the president mobilized soldiers to brutally assault and kill innocent Gwangju citizens. Even young elementary school students. Many people died, got hurt, and had serious trauma. My grandparents and mom remember the situation vividly. In fact, not only Gwangju but also the entire Republic of Korea resisted the coup and many people were sacrificed. I kept thinking about this when I saw the coup in Myanmar. I hope Myanmar people cheer up. Myanmar, fighting! 🇰🇷♥🇲🇲
Thank you for your support ☺️ We also had a similar event in 1988 and many people died but it was all in vain unfortunately. This is the third big coup in 60 years and that's why Myanmar people are so desperate to finish this once and for all :( We don't want more 50+ years of dictatorship and sacrifices over and over again. I'm a Burmese working abroad but I'm wholeheartedly praying for them now.. We all appreciate your support really 🙇🏻♀️
I knew about this Gwangju incident through the film A Taxi Driver. One of the best thought provoking, and it hits me to my heart and guts when I watched it. This incident in Myanmar made me think of the Gwangju incident too
Israel has been the biggest supplier for Myanmar Army. So whenever the Israelis said, it is hard to believe. Because Israel doesn't require human rights like America does.
Indonesia never supports re-election in Myanmar. Reuters must be responsible for the incorrect information they made, and We mad at them. Love from Indonesia 🇮🇩 for Myanmar 🇲🇲
@@StaryzHelios Not sure if Israel is Myanmar biggest supplier. For sure, the chinese is their biggest supplier and supporting this killing like they did in cambodia in the late 1970s.
Asian Boss had to dodge Myanmar's internet shutdown to get this out to the global public. This truly shows that Asian Boss cares about what is going on in Myanmar.
its important because asian boss' viewers would question why asian boss did not cover this issue. not that it would genuinely matter to asian boss itself.
@@dbuc4671 that's a very pitiful way of looking a great channel. Have you actually watched their videos? Their attitude and the way they talk shows they do care. Try not to project your sense of worth to a great channel please.
This kind of video is EXACTLY why this channel is important. God damn, interviewing people on the street when government is under military junta. and making it free, huge props
I Love how these youths are so passionate and eloquent in their expressions. The young lady referring Aung San Suu Kyi as Mother Suu was heartwarming. This is an incredibly rare emotional connection between a nations leader with an ordinary citizen. I pray for restoration of democracy in Myanmar
As a korean who has a similar history longing for democracy, I root for those who make a historical change. The ppl in democratic country should wake up for myanmar 🇲🇲
Thank You So much for your support to South Korean people I saw what South Korean government doing their best to support us I really appreciate the help of South Korea.
@@sethkang4410 and in my country people think if young kids do something against government then they are misguided! But young people this day has more knowledge than the generation above them or old generation
I'm fascinated by their language, its so smooth, sort of smoother version of thai language, makes me want to study it tbh, I'll pray for your struggles myanmar
From India here, and I want my neighbors to stay peaceful and happy. I hope Myanmar and her people achieve peace, freedom and democracy they deserve. All the best and stay strong.
As someone who is Burmese American myself, THANK YOU. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for putting this together and risking your lives to get this message out. This video speaks volumes about how much you care about what is going in my country - thank you so much! Watching this and reading all the comments brought tears to my eyes about how many people are empathizing with us in this fight.
@@maysi2978 I dont think so anymore. It only refers to Bamar now. Burma changed to Myanmar to fix this confusion. Im hearing the term "Myanmarese" more often these days for nationality
@@user-pd9ju5dk5s interesting. As a Chin person myself, we also refer to ourselves also as Burmese since we are from Burma/Myanmar also. I personally have never heard of the term “myanmarese.” If we are speaking ethnically then yes, I’m Chin, and there’s “Bamar” but Burmese does not only refer to the Bamar ethnic group
Please make Japanese subtitle on this video. I want to share it to my Japanese friends. Most of my friends are so ignorant they don’t even know what coup means. They saw a video of Myanmar people protesting in Japan on tiktok and they complained saying “go back to your home country! Why causing trouble here??” My heart is with the people of Myanmar. Please keep fighting!
@@beanz2993 I can, but this video should make them understand more. If it has Japanese subtitle, I can share on tiktok and thousands of people will see and understand at once.
Demn that actually hurt me. I am a Burmese Zoomer and I don't use tiktok since it's a little bit weird for me, and I want all the fellow Zoomers around the world to understand our situation. I may sound desperate and I know it too, I AM DESPERATE, DESPERATE TO GET BACK OUR FREEDOM, OUR LIVES.
Yeah. Similar things happened in Korea as well in the past. However the protesters eventually won. If you keep fighting, you'll end up winning. I support ya'll
@Green Vial gwangju uprising so called 5 18 democratic movement happened about 40 yrs ago. about 150 sacrificed their lives during that time because of their sacrifice we koreans achieved democracy. i m very concerned that innocent people may die because oof these peaceful protest. in order to save these myanmar people from military regime we have to pressure military regime from using force. south korea usa europe un etc have to get together with one voice and send strong message to military regime. may peace with you myanmar people......
@Green Vial they have fully controlled in communication operators. The social medias are still blocked and banned in the country to use unless we use vpn although they(the military)made an announcement of banning social medias for a week as of the day they started the coup on feb 1. And the blocked are not lifted yet such filthy liars. And it's been a couple of days, they had begun cutting off the lines in between 1am to 9am. ALSO in the meantime they're cunningly dragging out the civilians who are in a charge of cdm(civil disobedience movement) whether even it's in the broad day light and in the middle of the night! All we got is each other the citizens, the unity! Police and soliders are major enemies lol. Sounds pretty messed up right? Tho we're,the citizens, basically supposed to be under the protection of the military but it's a complete opposite and we really are in danger! They're already shooting at peaceful protest people and who ars staying at HOME peacefully at night!! Mdfks do not really wanna stay quiet and want very a tragic war i guess.
@Green Vial also they the military has their own filthy paid fellows to make a fuss,fake protests and to ruin the peaceful protest of people's lives by throwing rocks at the military in the rallies, the point is to make violence among the citizens so that they could detain and arrest the protesters and the ordinary citizens whenever theu could. And yes ofc they do not detain their own man that they send off. Also to make a huge fuss on religions and races to make things easy for them to take over the country completely. Even tho everybody is living in peace whether you're muslim, buddhists, christians or hindus. Everything is in harmony that resides within in Myanmar.
The interviewees are smart, articulate & most of all brave. I can't imagine waking up one day and my whole country is in chaos. Also, thank you Asian Boss for another courageous act. God Bless all of you and Myanmar.
@Shimmy Shai Why does commenting on one's smartness automatically mean the commenter thinks less of other people. It just so happens that they're included in the video and that's the commenter's observation about them. And what if the commenter values intelligence? I really don't get what the problem is.
I am from Spain, and I just found out about this. THANK YOU SO SO MUCH for your effort and work, i cannot thank you enough for making me aware of this and giving the visibility it deserves. Praying for the best for Myanmar.
As a Burmese living in US, I can't thank Asian Boss enough for covering this topic. Really puts it out on what's going on right now. We Burmese cannot live another 1988 massacre. Never again..
Another idea: Asian boss could interview international Burmese community who survived the 88 massacre Extremely grateful for this video Asian Boss made possible! ❤️
Similar things happened in the past in Korea. Even though I am young and didn't personally suffer that, I have learned it through history books. Many people died and got hurt, but we eventually overcame it and now we are a true democratic country now. I support your protest, and I hope you guys win. Best of Luck!
i think there are a lot of western coverage, but they talk more about their views than they listen to the people of myanmar, that's why we watch it here
@@whitejasminerice2264 thats not true. in german media at least it was covered and condemned. dont try to divide people by spreading false claims. racist statement from u tbh.

Nobody cares about myanmar anymore. For decades the world was behind you and ang sun su Kyi, then you and her stood by and watched millions get murdered and did nothing. You had your chance!
@@TheNightmareAssasin such a pity you think that way. Hope you can actually understand the situation more in the future or sooner. Myanmar people dont deserve any of this brutality regardless.
@@TheNightmareAssasin look just because you don't doesn't mean nobody cares about it okay? Also, your way of thinking sick. And people still wonder why we still have wars
Thank you so much Asian Boss for doing this and for using your platform for our true voices to be heard. This is very helpful 😭. ဒီထဲမှာပြောသွားတဲ့ အကို၊ အမဆွေအရမ်းတော်ပါတယ်။ ပြည်သူတွေ့ရဲ့ တကယ့်အသံစစ်ကိုပြောပေးသွားတယ်။ 👏

"It's not the people that should be afraid of the government....It's the government that should be afraid of the people" ...... Thanks to Asian Boss for sharing this wit the world again... I would like to visit Shwedagon Pagoda one day ..... Hopes and prayers are with the people of Myanmar....
@Which World if it's corona, there will be at worst, death. If there is Military, there will be the death of our future. Actually, we are on a very good path of fighting Covid but the military destroys it. We cannot even care Corona these days.
@Which World I know people here aren't social distancing since we have to do protests but majority of the people, at least 90% of us wear mask when protesting.
i am once again so impressed with this young generation of people who really seem to UNDERSTAND what terms like pluralism, freedom, and the rule of law actually MEAN when put into practice. (much more so than most of the people already living in free and democratic countries themselves) from the way they spoke, wishing for justice but also a calm and analytical approach to the crisis now facing their country, it seems clear to me that they really are true democrats at heart. it just makes it even sadder that these bright, free minds are now under threat of being squashed from an oppressive and authoritarian government
They definitely do. We are not more connected than ever; with access to countless information than in their parents time (where they had to get info from library, physical copies etc). This is expected. Do not think that the younger gen know nothing about public affairs, global news, politics etc. They know far better than ever.
I don't know what language they speak, but despite them talking about such a depressing topic, their language is so beautiful and calming to listen to.
We have a long and painful history of fighting for democracy. Please don't give up and keep standing up for what's rightfully yours: freedom. Love and support from Korea 🇰🇷 🇲🇲
As a burmese, Myanmar citizen, I really apprecriate such a kinda video clip and letting the world know what is happening in Myanmar. Their words represent our voices. We must win in this game. Pray for Myanmar!!🙏🙏🙏
I agree She explained and spoke really well. Of course everyone is speaking the truth about what's happening rn but I feel like she stood out from the rest by her speaking
Phew... this is heartbreaking... that young lady in the pink shirt as the train was coming in, you could hear her voice breaking as she struggled to speak... just gut wrenching. I can't begin to imagine just how frightening this must be for them all right now. My heart out to them... may there be a break in the storm soon.
Very probably. That has a major effect on a lot of people, the vast majority in fact. Ask your mother the same thing, and I wager that she smacks you for such a question. People in general feel those things are vile - even in some of the most violent prisons people who commit such crimes are thought of as the lowest scum.
16:32 Who's that Korean RUclipsr?! No way! As a South Korean citizen, I can clearly state here that more Korean media and people are supporting the people of Myanmar -- I recently heard radio news in South Korea with Burmese in Korea as guest speakers (who are protesting in front of the Myanmar embassy in South Korea). They delivered their message clearly and helped me to understand the situation in Myanmar from the people's view. Thanks to those efforts, many South Koreans, including myself, see this situation in Myanmar as a reminiscence of the Gwangju Uprising (1980) and the June Democratic Uprising (1987): which are two historical uprisings that eventually led South Korea into a democratic system. Do not listen to those stupid RUclipsrs speaking non-sense. Don't let those fake news to let you down. Don't click those videos, don't listen to them, just let them rot. I support you Myanmar, and hopefully, most of the world would do the same! And lastly, thank you Asian Boss making this video!!
Sorry for that but there really was a youtuber from korea with incredible number of followers. I also watched that video from his channel and I have to agree what the person in this video said. But as you said, I have been seeing a lot of support from the people and the government of Korea. Tbh, Korea is the top supporting countries for Myanmar citizens and I am very grateful for it. Thank you so much for your kindness, Koreans. 진심으로 감사합니다.
I’m a Burmese here and tbh, the situation is really bad, getting worse everyday even. For this video, I’m very grateful to Asian Boss for sharing the information to the world. All of the interviewees have spoken the truth, esp important facts🙏 it means a lot to Myanmar Citizens.
I hope and pray that all Burmese people get out of this horrific.. situation. I am Indian and We are getting news updates from newspapers and Internet what's going on there. Recently held QUAD meeting among India, Australia, U.S and Japan this issue was raised so it has reached Global stage..we are deeply concerned about the well being of people there..🙏 Stay strong...and keep raising your voice.
I hope you and your people are safe . Please take care. I can't imagine such things we actually learnt in history are coming back to life in this century. Praying for all of you from your neighbouring country India. My state Manipur(India) is in border with your country
Indonesia never supports re-election in Myanmar. Reuters must be responsible for the incorrect information they made, and We mad at them. Love from Indonesia 🇮🇩 for Myanmar 🇲🇲
These youth are so well-informed and well-spoken. I am proud of them for sharing their voices and proud of Asian Boss to make it possible for us to see this. I wonder what I can do to help..
I applaud the courage of these people who spoke so clearly about their thoughts. I really hope allies are taking note and do something about this situation. As always it's the common people who suffer in times like these
@@tossapixeltoyournoelle where were they? They were being oppressed like all other ethnic groups. You really think protesting against genocide would do any good? The military will use that as an excuse to take over much sooner and you don't have to be a detective to figure out what they will do with that. Seems to me you forgot about all the other minorities living in Myanmar
@@imperialguardsman5929 where were the people in this video? I’m not sure deflecting here would do any good for your argument. People can always stand up for the weak, even it means to sacrifice your comfort and privileges. These kind of things have been happening all around the world for decades so that doesn’t justify sitting back on the genocide of the rohingya people and fight for a leader who have had all the power to completely eliminate the military power for all these years and also condemn the military’s actions when they committed a genocide. If the military truly wanted her gone, they would have killed her long ago (just like other leaders who have had coup on their country AKA egypt’s leader) but she is in a house arrest in her comfortable palace.
I would not only like to thank AsianBoss, but also the non-burmese people who took their time watching this video. My county is seriously is desperation of help and getting the public attention is just the first step. I can’t help but cry every time I see news about what’s happening in my country, sadly I’m in Australia, all I can do is share around and donate to the people online. I pray everyday for our mother Aung San Su Kyi is safe and also the Myanmar citizens. I do wish this video showed what the military is doing to the people, recent news, they were caught injecting drugs into the kids so they can go back to the village and burn it. It’s no rumour, there’s evidence everywhere. Or even when the military detained the politicians and citizens at night.
I hope those people that doing the interview will stay save, iam afraid the military will track their identities and arrest them :( I hope Myanmar get their freedom from dictatorship as soon as possible. God bless you all ❤
@YR ZM - I was thinking the EXACT same thing. I understand that it is the individual's decision and right to ask for anonymity. Apparently the people who granted the interviews did not mind having their identities exposed (which makes me respect them even MORE.) But I still sort of wish that the interviewees' images had been blurred out and their voices disguised anyway. If the Myanmar military is bold enough to take over the government, it is not likely they would have problems going after individual private citizens. I too hope that this military dictatorship can be overthrown as quickly and peacefully as possible. The military should protect its citizens from external enemies - it should not be an oppresor of any people, especially not its own citizens.
to everybody at the asian boss team who helped make this video happen, i sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart. my country is one that you may have never heard of until very recently. we were just a young bird sprouting wings of democracy, but the military cut them off. they are inciting horrible, terrible acts of violence (some i once considered unthinkable) against the innocent citizens of myanmar who are protesting in a peaceful and organized fashion. instead of the police protecting the people, the people must protect each other from the police. our internet is being cut off every single night because the military doesn’t want news like this to get out. they are being backed by russia and china as well. as a result, i have not been able to contact my friends nor family. what am i to do? honestly, many people have died already. more have been injured badly. i must also mention that the military released over 23,000 high-danger prisoners on death row and drugged many of them to incite violence on the streets. this is becoming a repeat of 1988, and we MUST not have that again. we will not be silenced again, and we will continue to fight so that we may be the last generation to endure this pain. please help us and spread the word as far as you can.
Sorry but the Military isnt backed by China. China didn't condemn it because the countries condemning the Coup were blaming China too because. China did not condemn because they supported the Coup but becaude those other countries used this as a way against China. Sorry for the Burmese people and yourself about your situation though,
I just want to say that.. This whole video is OUR Voice. Now the situation is getting more worser. We thought everything is gonna like normal until February 1. We were excited for our university...We were exciting so much.. But our hope and everything got destroyed in Feb 1. Please hear our voice. And thank you from the bottom of my heart who spoke out for us. Thank you💜
I'm an Indian but our family belong to a tai ethnic group native to Myanmar which kind of feels like home to me. I wish people of Myanmar are safe and I hope they are heard. Thank you Asian boss for delivering such news all around the world.
@@aspirewot8408 tbh, I wanna know about that too. Sometimes I would google and read whatever is available on the internet. I plan to research it in the near future and also if possible I would like to take a DNA test. I'm really curious to know where I belong to
Yes . Myanmar Military shuts the internet and all the calls on 1st Feb , they still blocking Social media and they shut down internet every day from 1am to 9am.
i got goosebumps watching this!! im not from myanmar but im grateful to asian boss for talking about issues like this, even when you have no reporting presence there! this really shows your utmost dedication to your work, and for that i greatly appreciate you guys
@@sambatra6162 It depends on Experiences of different people. Those who are conscientious and sensitive to values, to work against an environment of corruption and selfishness, even aggressive but righteous environment feels comfortable for them. But as u said, > 90% majority are comfortable in a corrupted Democracy, a Democracy which ultimately gives power to sick authoritative beauraucrats, who can allure and manipulate common public and lower class society by providing free welfare things but keeping them suppressed from their mental and emotional independence. This is why Farmers, taking support of Khalistanis who are also sikh farmers are protesting in India against Farners bill, which is favoring nothing but private corporatisation of Agriculture too. Anyway, Mother Nature knows whats the best balance for human evolution. Which is why people like Trump are losing in US and nothing could be done against nations like China, NK communism even though Human right breaching is happening against Uyghur muslims. But as long as majority chinese and NK people are comfortable with their goverments, Mother Nature is fine in such evolutionary ways too, that puts some seeds of virtue as long as its reasonable in terms of human rights of all there. What social media spreads is purely for their economic superiority and they donot have faith in Natures laws and should not be trusted blindly.
I am a Burmese myself and the way our young generation answer these question is so nice. Even though we r filled with anger and hate they still gave the best answers.
Korean people have been through exact same path in the past. I think you guys can make it right as we did. Keep fighting and I'm proud of myself to support asian boss doing this brave action to tell people the truth.
These young people seem educated and clear minded, great interviews! Thank you for bringing this to our attention Asian Boss! Hope peace can come out of this soon ...
my respect for Asian Boss increased even more! this is very important. i'm from Indonesia and i'm also very concerned about the situation over there in Myanmar. i'm trying to raise awareness so the international community can see the truth and help each other
This is exactly why we needed to save asian boss. We need to hear the voices of Asia unfiltered and clear. From Covid 19 in Korea, to unique perspectives on culture, and now the myanmar coup, Asian boss has proven they are true to their mission.
3:37 the girl was almost in tears its so hard to believe it! I can never imagine that happening to anyone ..yet they are facing it so strongly and making their voices heard through all the odds!
Seeing this video made me realise and appreciate how fortunate I am to born and raised in a stable country with many benefits like free education and health care. Sending prayers to the people of Burma. Stay strong! Hopefully you guys get your democracy back. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 🇲🇲🇲🇲
As a Burmese in Canada, I'm so proud of the people's courage and intellect in this video to speak up against the military's faux cause. Thank you Asian Boss this coverage gives me solace and hope for our country during these hard times
That's good to see (visually hear). I pray that Myanmar protesters don't think they absolutely, have to result in trying to harm military physically, provoke others to being to mad, to make proper decisions and that myanmar can be independent republic.
Man it's very sad that this happened to the citizens of Myanmar. Seems like the trend of authoritarians taking control in countries is on the increase lately. Freedom for Myanmar 🇲🇲
This is what i like from asian boss. They are literally on point seeing the things which is now happening . Hope they will get their best solution peacefully.
A lot of Thai people are also fighting for Democracy same with our neighbouring country, Myanmar. We hope to spread the awareness on this serious situation and gain support from people from all around the world. Thank you. And Myanmar people keep fighting we'll always be with you !
The aspirations of all Burmese young people are the same, we do not want a military dictator, we just want democracy and peace. We want our future to be better.
The aspirations of all people all over the world are the same: live in a stable environment, have food to eat and clothes to wear, send their kids to school to get a good education. It doesn't matter if it is a farmer in Africa, an office worker in Europe or a taxi driver in Asia ... every parent wants and needs the same thing. That is why racism is so stupid. People everywhere are the same.
Asian Boss has done a lot of amazing and informative works in the past, but perhaps this might be one of the most important one yet. I cannot imagine living in a country where communications are shut down and any attempts to voice out your opinion lead to arrests or death. The people of this country needs their voices to be heard.
It's much worse. Military released prisoners, injected them with opioids and make them burn civilian houses and harm innocent citizens at night. Each street in the country is organizing volunteers sentinels to protect themselves from thieves. In addtion, police are illegally raiding civilian homes at night and kidnapping them. Yes you did heard it right. Police are terrorizing civilian. It's living hell and it's actually happening now.
Hello. Greeting from Myanmar(Burma). Last month, I saw a video saying you guys are about to shut down and I was really sorry to hear that. So, I shared your video on my social accounts and asked Myanmar people to help support your start-up. Now, this video proved to me that you are worth supporting. Thank Asian Boss for delivering our voices to the world ☺️
As a Myanmar citizen living abroad, thank you Asian Boss for letting the world knows the real situation about Myanmar and hears the voices of the people from Myanmar. Thank you so much.
I am completely ignorant when it comes to this country. I’ve actually never heard of it, if I’m honest. Very interesting language. So sad to hear what is happening there. Sounds a lot like what North Korea has. Praying for the people of Myanmar!
@@dhorpatanmaho She didn't. When she protect Rohingya, the buddhist religious extremist in Myanmar blamed her. When she protect her country and faced in ICJ court, the international media blamed her. We,local people just know the situation and understand her decision. But It's ok, you can think whatever you want.
I didn't just find this insightful, I find this incredibly touching! My heart is hurting for myanmar. I might be living in the US but having walked on the streets of myanmar and having personal friends from the country, I could empathize so much with the news. This is what Asian Boss does so well, it creates that closeness to those local insights, and allows one to empathize with these humans more, even if we are physically far and may not have been to the country affected.
Asian boss restored my faith in journalism..this is what the world needs right now..to be aware of what’s actually happening around us minus the propaganda that’s usually on news channels. ‘We can only be free if we are aware of being caged’ Hats off!!

@Green Vial gwangju uprising so called 5 18 democratic movement happened about 40 yrs ago. about 150 sacrificed their lives during that time because of their sacrifice we koreans achieved democracy. i m very concerned that innocent people may die because oof these peaceful protest. in order to save these myanmar people from military regime we have to pressure military regime from using force. south korea usa europe un etc have to get together with one voice and send strong message to military regime. may peace with you myanmar people......
@Green Vial they have fully controlled in communication operators. The social medias are still blocked and banned in the country to use unless we use vpn although they(the military)made an announcement of banning social medias for a week as of the day they started the coup on feb 1. And the blocked are not lifted yet such filthy liars. And it's been a couple of days, they had begun cutting off the lines in between 1am to 9am. ALSO in the meantime they're cunningly dragging out the civilians who are in a charge of cdm(civil disobedience movement) whether even it's in the broad day light and in the middle of the night! All we got is each other the citizens, the unity! Police and soliders are major enemies lol. Sounds pretty messed up right? Tho we're,the citizens, basically supposed to be under the protection of the military but it's a complete opposite and we really are in danger! They're already shooting at peaceful protest people and who ars staying at HOME peacefully at night!! Mdfks do not really wanna stay quiet and want very a tragic war i guess.
@Green Vial also they the military has their own filthy paid fellows to make a fuss,fake protests and to ruin the peaceful protest of people's lives by throwing rocks at the military in the rallies, the point is to make violence among the citizens so that they could detain and arrest the protesters and the ordinary citizens whenever theu could. And yes ofc they do not detain their own man that they send off. Also to make a huge fuss on religions and races to make things easy for them to take over the country completely. Even tho everybody is living in peace whether you're muslim, buddhists, christians or hindus. Everything is in harmony that resides within in Myanmar.
The interviewees are smart, articulate & most of all brave. I can't imagine waking up one day and my whole country is in chaos. Also, thank you Asian Boss for another courageous act. God Bless all of you and Myanmar.
@Shimmy Shai Calm down.
@Shimmy Shai ohh ,you think they ( people in the video ) are lying ? What is with you , You OK ?

@Shimmy Shai Why does commenting on one's smartness automatically mean the commenter thinks less of other people. It just so happens that they're included in the video and that's the commenter's observation about them. And what if the commenter values intelligence? I really don't get what the problem is.

i am once again so impressed with this young generation of people who really seem to UNDERSTAND what terms like pluralism, freedom, and the rule of law actually MEAN when put into practice.
(much more so than most of the people already living in free and democratic countries themselves)
from the way they spoke, wishing for justice but also a calm and analytical approach to the crisis now facing their country, it seems clear to me that they really are true democrats at heart.
it just makes it even sadder that these bright, free minds are now under threat of being squashed from an oppressive and authoritarian government
They definitely do. We are not more connected than ever; with access to countless information than in their parents time (where they had to get info from library, physical copies etc). This is expected. Do not think that the younger gen know nothing about public affairs, global news, politics etc. They know far better than ever.

Very probably. That has a major effect on a lot of people, the vast majority in fact. Ask your mother the same thing, and I wager that she smacks you for such a question.

16:32 Who's that Korean RUclipsr?! No way! As a South Korean citizen, I can clearly state here that more Korean media and people are supporting the people of Myanmar -- I recently heard radio news in South Korea with Burmese in Korea as guest speakers (who are protesting in front of the Myanmar embassy in South Korea). They delivered their message clearly and helped me to understand the situation in Myanmar from the people's view. Thanks to those efforts, many South Koreans, including myself, see this situation in Myanmar as a reminiscence of the Gwangju Uprising (1980) and the June Democratic Uprising (1987): which are two historical uprisings that eventually led South Korea into a democratic system. Do not listen to those stupid RUclipsrs speaking non-sense. Don't let those fake news to let you down. Don't click those videos, don't listen to them, just let them rot. I support you Myanmar, and hopefully, most of the world would do the same! And lastly, thank you Asian Boss making this video!!

Seems to me you forgot about all the other minorities living in Myanmar
@@imperialguardsman5929 where were the people in this video? I’m not sure deflecting here would do any good for your argument. People can always stand up for the weak, even it means to sacrifice your comfort and privileges. These kind of things have been happening all around the world for decades so that doesn’t justify sitting back on the genocide of the rohingya people and fight for a leader who have had all the power to completely eliminate the military power for all these years and also condemn the military’s actions when they committed a genocide. If the military truly wanted her gone, they would have killed her long ago (just like other leaders who have had coup on their country AKA egypt’s leader) but she is in a house arrest in her comfortable palace.
I would not only like to thank AsianBoss, but also the non-burmese people who took their time watching this video. My county is seriously is desperation of help and getting the public attention is just the first step. I can’t help but cry every time I see news about what’s happening in my country, sadly I’m in Australia, all I can do is share around and donate to the people online. I pray everyday for our mother Aung San Su Kyi is safe and also the Myanmar citizens.
I do wish this video showed what the military is doing to the people, recent news, they were caught injecting drugs into the kids so they can go back to the village and burn it. It’s no rumour, there’s evidence everywhere.
Or even when the military detained the politicians and citizens at night.

God bless you all ❤
@YR ZM - I was thinking the EXACT same thing. I understand that it is the individual's decision and right to ask for anonymity. Apparently the people who granted the interviews did not mind having their identities exposed (which makes me respect them even MORE.) But I still sort of wish that the interviewees' images had been blurred out and their voices disguised anyway. If the Myanmar military is bold enough to take over the government, it is not likely they would have problems going after individual private citizens. I too hope that this military dictatorship can be overthrown as quickly and peacefully as possible. The military should protect its citizens from external enemies - it should not be an oppresor of any people, especially not its own citizens.
to everybody at the asian boss team who helped make this video happen, i sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart. my country is one that you may have never heard of until very recently. we were just a young bird sprouting wings of democracy, but the military cut them off. they are inciting horrible, terrible acts of violence (some i once considered unthinkable) against the innocent citizens of myanmar who are protesting in a peaceful and organized fashion. instead of the police protecting the people, the people must protect each other from the police. our internet is being cut off every single night because the military doesn’t want news like this to get out. they are being backed by russia and china as well. as a result, i have not been able to contact my friends nor family. what am i to do?
honestly, many people have died already. more have been injured badly. i must also mention that the military released over 23,000 high-danger prisoners on death row and drugged many of them to incite violence on the streets.
this is becoming a repeat of 1988, and we MUST not have that again. we will not be silenced again, and we will continue to fight so that we may be the last generation to endure this pain.
please help us and spread the word as far as you can.
Keep fighting and stay strong!!

Fun fact: If you go to Endia you'll see lots of dirty disgusting stinky slums
@@NightcorEDM Can slums be removed with coup? Then why does Media say NK is so poor. Maybe, coup is as worse as a corrupted Democracy
@@drrameshshrink In my opinion corrupted democracy is better than military coup.
@@sambatra6162 It depends on Experiences of different people. Those who are conscientious and sensitive to values, to work against an environment of corruption and selfishness, even aggressive but righteous environment feels comfortable for them. But as u said, > 90% majority are comfortable in a corrupted Democracy, a Democracy which ultimately gives power to sick authoritative beauraucrats, who can allure and manipulate common public and lower class society by providing free welfare things but keeping them suppressed from their mental and emotional independence. This is why Farmers, taking support of Khalistanis who are also sikh farmers are protesting in India against Farners bill, which is favoring nothing but private corporatisation of Agriculture too.
Anyway, Mother Nature knows whats the best balance for human evolution. Which is why people like Trump are losing in US and nothing could be done against nations like China, NK communism even though Human right breaching is happening against Uyghur muslims. But as long as majority chinese and NK people are comfortable with their goverments, Mother Nature is fine in such evolutionary ways too, that puts some seeds of virtue as long as its reasonable in terms of human rights of all there. What social media spreads is purely for their economic superiority and they donot have faith in Natures laws and should not be trusted blindly.

my respect for Asian Boss increased even more! this is very important. i'm from Indonesia and i'm also very concerned about the situation over there in Myanmar. i'm trying to raise awareness so the international community can see the truth and help each other
This is exactly why we needed to save asian boss. We need to hear the voices of Asia unfiltered and clear. From Covid 19 in Korea, to unique perspectives on culture, and now the myanmar coup, Asian boss has proven they are true to their mission.
May God bless you myanmar love from phililippines🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Amen.
Burmese is a very beautiful language. Sounds like a softer version of Thai and Vietnamese. Very pretty sounding! :)
Thank you 🙏
The alphabets are even cuter. ❤️
Loll when we act politely of course our slang is pretty vulgar
As a Burmese, I think Thai is more softer but the slang in Myanmar is vulgar as hell lol
As a half-Japanese and half-Burmese, that is very kind of you.
3:37 the girl was almost in tears its so hard to believe it! I can never imagine that happening to anyone ..yet they are facing it so strongly and making their voices heard through all the odds!
Seeing this video made me realise and appreciate how fortunate I am to born and raised in a stable country with many benefits like free education and health care. Sending prayers to the people of Burma. Stay strong! Hopefully you guys get your democracy back. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 🇲🇲🇲🇲
As a Burmese in Canada, I'm so proud of the people's courage and intellect in this video to speak up against the military's faux cause. Thank you Asian Boss this coverage gives me solace and hope for our country during these hard times
That's good to see (visually hear). I pray that Myanmar protesters don't think they absolutely, have to result in trying to harm military physically, provoke others to being to mad, to make proper decisions and that myanmar can be independent republic.
Man it's very sad that this happened to the citizens of Myanmar. Seems like the trend of authoritarians taking control in countries is on the increase lately. Freedom for Myanmar 🇲🇲
This is what i like from asian boss. They are literally on point seeing the things which is now happening . Hope they will get their best solution peacefully.
Support n love to Myanmar people from neighbour India.
Thank you Dear
Namaste
Love and Light 🙏
Good vibes from Latin America 🤗 Myanmar citizens will success ✊
Thanks dude
Love and Light 🙏🤗✊
Thx man. May your love ones be safe in these trying times.
If im not mistaken, this is the 1st interview on Myanmar
Asian Boss has said it themselves that it is their first interview in Myanmar 🇲🇲
I'm from Myanmar and I had been Asian boss fan since the beginning and yes I confirm that :)
Not on other media though
@@nt4409 thats given with the current critical development in Myanmar for sure many country will report about it especially in ASEAN region.
A lot of Thai people are also fighting for Democracy same with our neighbouring country, Myanmar. We hope to spread the awareness on this serious situation and gain support from people from all around the world. Thank you. And Myanmar people keep fighting we'll always be with you !
Stay strong Thailand!!! We will also pray for u guyss 💪🏻💪🏻
Let’s fight these military dictators together
For our fighting to get Democracy, let's stay strong bro and we also pray for you too.
Let fight for our own justice together pal.💪
Stronger together!
The aspirations of all Burmese young people are the same, we do not want a military dictator, we just want democracy and peace. We want our future to be better.
The aspirations of all people all over the world are the same: live in a stable environment, have food to eat and clothes to wear, send their kids to school to get a good education.
It doesn't matter if it is a farmer in Africa, an office worker in Europe or a taxi driver in Asia ... every parent wants and needs the same thing.
That is why racism is so stupid. People everywhere are the same.
I am here from Sri Lanka..
I pray for all peoples in Myanmar
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Asian Boss has done a lot of amazing and informative works in the past, but perhaps this might be one of the most important one yet. I cannot imagine living in a country where communications are shut down and any attempts to voice out your opinion lead to arrests or death. The people of this country needs their voices to be heard.
It's much worse. Military released prisoners, injected them with opioids and make them burn civilian houses and harm innocent citizens at night. Each street in the country is organizing volunteers sentinels to protect themselves from thieves. In addtion, police are illegally raiding civilian homes at night and kidnapping them. Yes you did heard it right. Police are terrorizing civilian. It's living hell and it's actually happening now.
Hello. Greeting from Myanmar(Burma). Last month, I saw a video saying you guys are about to shut down and I was really sorry to hear that. So, I shared your video on my social accounts and asked Myanmar people to help support your start-up. Now, this video proved to me that you are worth supporting. Thank Asian Boss for delivering our voices to the world ☺️
Salutes from S.Korea.. I hope you'll defend your freedom 🙏 democracy!
I hope Myanmar opens support accounts..so we all can help!
The comments really encourage me as a burmese student.We can't live even a second under dictatorship again.
We must win.
Thank all.
As a Myanmar citizen living abroad, thank you Asian Boss for letting the world knows the real situation about Myanmar and hears the voices of the people from Myanmar. Thank you so much.
My Myanmar sisters and brothers, stay strong!!
Thank you 🙏
The girl in red comes from a military family but still doesn’t brush away from what is the right thing to do, Huge applaud to you! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I am completely ignorant when it comes to this country. I’ve actually never heard of it, if I’m honest. Very interesting language. So sad to hear what is happening there. Sounds a lot like what North Korea has. Praying for the people of Myanmar!
atleast now you know and you are here to listen to them, show more than enough that you care.
love to myanmar 🇲🇲 from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Thank you, I'm from Myanmar and ARMY too.
People of Myanmar we are with you. Love and support from Nagaland ❤️
Do you think we should take some action on Myanmar Coup being their giant western neighbour ?
Love Mayanmar from India.
Praying for India.
@@juliawin9571 why Ang sang suki was silent during Rohinga crisis?
@@dhorpatanmaho She didn't. When she protect Rohingya, the buddhist religious extremist in Myanmar blamed her. When she protect her country and faced in ICJ court, the international media blamed her. We,local people just know the situation and understand her decision. But It's ok, you can think whatever you want.
Even though it's just 3 people, I can guarentee that it represents the voice of Myanmar.
I didn't just find this insightful, I find this incredibly touching! My heart is hurting for myanmar. I might be living in the US but having walked on the streets of myanmar and having personal friends from the country, I could empathize so much with the news. This is what Asian Boss does so well, it creates that closeness to those local insights, and allows one to empathize with these humans more, even if we are physically far and may not have been to the country affected.
Crazy how little attention this situation is getting in western media.
Yeah, they don't care about ASEAN, they just want their nature resources.
Imagine if this was Hong Kong.
It's literally on BBC World every single day.
@@TheWatcher328 BBC does not represent every country's media...
Idk where you are but in England, this situation is literally on the news everyday.
They're so well spoken and intelligent
Asian boss restored my faith in journalism..this is what the world needs right now..to be aware of what’s actually happening around us minus the propaganda that’s usually on news channels. ‘We can only be free if we are aware of being caged’ Hats off!!
I can say I am very proud of the people being interviewed and they are all very intelligent! I hope Myanmar is soon liberated from this coup!
