Min Aung Hlaing does not and should not represent Myanmar in ASEAN statements. He only represents SAC/Myanmar military. @ASEAN should be clear on that. @Menlu_RI @VivianBala #ASEANrejectSAC
Without either a representative mandate, nor the ability to govern, nor full and actual control of sovereign territory, nor any legal basis for its seizure of power (and in fact breach of military-designed 2008 constitution), SAC is just an occupying force pretending to be gov.
State of the Union Armed cowards aka SAC soldiers and police plain bullying and harassing the unarmed civilians. COWARDS!

Their main weapon is Fear. Caution but no fear. #FreedomFromFear
We still haven’t heard from @ASEAN what’s their agenda in the meeting or how they will engage with our legitimate civilian government @NUGMyanmar. There is no way to address the crisis in Myanmar without our democratic representatives. #ASEANrejectSAC
⚠️ We are getting troubling reports about Myanmar army’s operations in villages targeting the civilians. Since they don’t have any internet connection, the news are not coming out. We need action! #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
Myanmar army is stealing, plundering and killing without any shame. These must be stopped! #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

Please 'retweet' to communicate to ASEAN foreign policymakers. #ASEANSmartDiplomacy Thread (1/6) Here are the things we would like @ASEAN to consider when engaging with the junta not to give them the recognition they desperately want. @Menlu_RI @VivianBala @MalaysiaMFA
(2/6) Their formal titles (such as ‘Foreign Minister’) should not be used. They should be addressed using regime name such as ‘representative from SAC’. In documents and meetings, delegates from SAC should be strictly referred to by the regime’s name (SAC) rather than Myanmar.
(3/6) At the same time, ASEAN Joint Communiques and Joint Statements should not be issued. Rather, communications from ASEAN should be in the form of “Chairman’s Statements” or “Summary of Discussions.”
(4/6) Individual ASEAN countries should be allowed to issue separate country statements alongside Chairman’s statements to give individual member states the chance to strongly rebuke the SAC’s standing.
(5/6) At the bilateral level, individual countries could choose not to replace their returning ambassadors and allow their missions in Myanmar to be placed under the care of a Chargé d’ Affaires (as Singapore did after Lon Nol’s coup in Cambodia in 1970).
(6/6) The SAC’s appointed ambassadors could also be subjected to delays in reception and credentialization by ASEAN member states. We appeal to ASEAN policy makers to consider these diplomatic details in engaging with the junta.

ASEAN needs to engage with @NUGMyanmar which could serve as an interlocutor for civil society, political parties, students’ unions and ethnic armed organizations. We have demonstrated overwhelming support with #WeSupportNUG. @ASEAN summit needs Myanmar people’s voice represented.
Boycotting military business products and services is a very important pillar in #CivilDisobedienceMovement. Let’s keep up with our good job. ✊🏼 #BoycottMyanmarArmy
Boycott all Myanmar military-related products and services. Let's make their income ZERO. #BoycottMyanmarArmy
“If @ASEAN wants to help solve the Myanmar situation, they are not going to achieve anything without consulting and negotiating with the @NUGMyanmar , which is supported by the people and has full legitimacy,” said the national unity govt's deputy foreign minister.
Now, the Myanmar military is at a point where they will even target people who are just supporting the struggling community. So wicked! #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar twitter.com/nslwin/status/…
The same military - the Myanmar military - denied humanitarian assistance to hundreds of thousands of people affected by Cyclone Nargis. They will continue murdering their own citizens to hold onto power. International community should decisively act. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
