Myanmar journalist Sonny Swe: Our democracy is ‘too young to die’
Feb 8, 2021 6:35 PM PHT
Sonny Swe, CEO of independent news agency Frontier Myanmar, expressed concern for the state of press freedom in his country amid a military coup that shocked the world and toppled Aung San Suu Kyi’s government.
While there are no current regulations in place, Swe said the nation is “so lost” as to what will come next. A new minister of information was already appointed.
“Our democracy is only 10 years old, very fragile. I always have this feeling that it’s too young to die. And I don’t think we deserve this, [or] the people of Myanmar deserve this. I am worried about press freedom, we don’t know how far we can push. Everything is so lost at this point. Everything is confusing not knowing what’s gonna happen or what to expect next,” Swe told Rappler CEO Maria Ressa in an exclusive interview for Rappler Plus members on Monday, February 8.
