Covid-🇲🇲 

When the double crises of military coup and Covid-19 pandemic could push half of the population of Myanmar, one of Asia’s poorest countries, below the poverty line of $1.10 a day, by completely wiping out the progress the country has made in reducing poverty over the last one and a half decades.

With ongoing protests against the military rule in which thousands of blue- and white-collar workers have gone on strike with the aim of disrupting the economy and unseating the coup leaders, would Burma ever recover from the Covid-🇲🇲 crisis without a people’s revolution to kick the military junta out of the political system?
