The pro-democracy protestors in Myanmar, who are demanding the end of the military junta rule and restoration of a democratically elected government have now turned to rebels seeking their help. Many protestors are now heading to country’s remote borderlands to join a patchwork of rebel armies.
An international news agency in a report dated April 27, 2021, cites the Karen National Union (KNU) that protesters coming from the lowlands of central Myanmar have been trekking to the rebels’ hilly jungle redouts for training since late March. “We train people who want to be trained and who want to fight against the military regime,” the news agency quoted Maj. Gen. Nerdah Bo Mya, Chief of Staff of the Karen National Defense Organization, an armed wing of the KNU.
