📌📌 1. Union Minister U Htin Linn Aung says that the air force of the military council is gradually weakening
At the opening ceremony of the fundraising campaign to raise funds for three districts, Myingyan, Nyaungoo, and Meiktila, in rural Myanmar organised on July 28, U Htin Linn Aung, Union Minister for Communications, Information and Technology of the National Unity Government, said, “When we look at the military council’s air force, we can see that it is gradually weakening. We observe that, despite continuing to launch bombardments, they are doing so less frequently. We have facts about it. I’m saying according to the facts.”
It was discovered that the military cannot do maintenance on the planes it bought from Russia after all of their flight hours, and as a result, they are in a state where they might crash at any time, and even the pilots of the plane don’t dare to fly.
“Our side can install drones everywhere while their air force becomes weaker. Our revolution can even prevail in a few days if we can install 10 drones in every township,” Union Minister continued.

📌📌 5. Economic downturn makes rice storage illegal
Due to the decline of Myanmar’s economy since 2021, investors have flocked to invest in the rice industry, which is a basic need. In the milled rice season, the investors purchase it at market price and store it in huge quantities before selling it at the desired high price when there is a demand for rice in the market. This causes a shortage of rice in the market. As a result, the business of storing rice is required to be registered and subject to inspection; failure to do so is regarded as illegal rice storage.
Discussions about increasing rice production and registration on the rice storage businesses are currently being held among farmers, dealers, and mill owners, according to a rice exporter who was also involved in the discussions.
He said, “The main reason for the high price of domestic rice starts from where it is grown. After calculating how many acres are planted, how much yield is produced, and how much is required for the country’s population, surplus rice is exported. Even though rice yield and planting acres are underestimated in calculating, domestic rice price is still high. To be clearly, rice is disappeared. Presuming there was illegal rice storage, a workshop was held yesterday to try to figure it out.”
Traditional rice producers are concerned that restrictions on rice storage are being put in place to control the high-capital investors who entered the rice industry as a result of recent profits.
