Today is March 17. It has exactly been 43 days since the coup.
Our lives are drastically different now, far too different from January 31st. The last night we went to sleep, with only burdens of tomorrow in our mind. Now 43 days have passed, and no one has gotten any peace of mind. Those who do, now lay eternally asleep. Over 200 people, children, humans, who each their own bright future.
The living are trying to sleep, but we can't. The cruelty and craziness of the terrorist military is affecting us all.
I will not go into the details of their crimes, their murders, of their methods to induce terror. Feel free to look up the gruesome images. The mutilated bodies are the sons of someone, the father of a newborn, the daughters of a beloved mother.
We are resisting, the people inside. And for a nation that has in many ways been divided for too long, we are all united against this common enemy. Our brothers and sisters of all ethnicities, we are fighting at the same time.
We have resilience, and all my respect go to the nameless heroes who are sacrificing their lives to save others. We are each in our own way fighting the living nightmare.
We are now packing bags, preparing for war.
We are now posting and retweeting news, hoping we reach the world.
We are praying, praying from all different religions, for peace and unity at last.
And in many, many ways we are still resisting and believing. I believe, too, that this nightmare will be over soon.
But in the upcoming days, we are going to be silenced. The voices that has been helping each other up, has helped the world know, we are going to be silenced.
They are going to silence us. The news media has all been shut down. The newspaper has been shut down. As voiceless as we had been after the 1962 power seizure, and again in the 1988 coup.
And they are going to shut down the one place you and I can meet: the internet.
They've already shut the internet in so many places. Our mouths are going to be sealed.
We've been resilient, we've continued protesting, we've continued banging pots and pans, we've been confident. And we are still confident that the terrorist is going to go down.
But while we are silenced, please pass the message of us. Please pass the message that the coup and nightmare is still not over for us Myanmar civilians. We, the people of Myanmar, are already packing bags and making calls,in fear it might be our last.
We ask for the cooperation of the international community. We ask for the cooperation of governments with the citizens of Myanmar. We ask for you to not forget the fact that this coup is still happening in Myanmar.

(Some of these news sources come from within the country, so they may be affected by internet cuts or pressure from the terrorist. A lot of reporters within the country are being arrested (even though this isn't allowed), and have become quieter. Local newspaper such as the Myanmar Times have been suspended by the terrorist.)
