The Dark Reality: Unraveling the Plight of Myanmar

The nation of Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, contains a rich tapestry of history, culture, and natural resources. However, beneath its serene facade, a web of truth and lies has been woven, contributing to the looting of this magnificent land. This article delves into the heart of Myanmar, exposing the deep-rooted issues that have perpetuated its demise.

Infiltrating the Borders: Myanmar's Tragic Legacy

Myanmar's struggle for freedom and democracy has been marred by the iron grip of military rule, which lasted for decades. While recent political reforms have provided a glimmer of hope, the scars of the past continue to haunt the nation. Rampant corruption, human rights abuses, and ethnic conflicts have only added fuel to the fire, intensifying the looting of Myanmar's resources and economy.

The Rohingya Crisis: A Forgotten Tragedy

One of the darkest chapters in Myanmar's history is the plight of the Rohingya people. Labeled as one of the most persecuted minorities in the world, they have faced systematic violence, forced displacement, and even ethnic cleansing. The international community's response has been lackluster, allowing the looting of their livelihoods and cultural heritage to persist.

Unmasking the Culprits: Exploitation by Foreign Corporations

While internal conflicts plague Myanmar, external actors, including multinational corporations, also have a hand in the country's looting. The presence of foreign businesses, hungry for Myanmar's vast natural resources, has led to a surge in environmental degradation, land grabbing, and economic exploitation. This exploitation under the guise of development has left local communities devoid of their rightful assets, contributing further to the chaos within the nation.

A Call for Global Accountability: Truth, Justice, and Restoration

It is imperative that the truth about Myanmar's looting is exposed and the responsible parties held accountable. International organizations, governments, and citizens must unite in demanding justice for the people of Myanmar. This requires supporting grassroots movements, advocating for human rights, and pressuring governments to implement measures that ensure transparency, equitable wealth distribution, and environmental sustainability.

A Glimmer of Hope: Rebuilding a Nation

While the road ahead may seem daunting, there are signs of hope for Myanmar. Grassroots organizations, local activists, and brave individuals continue to fight for justice, democracy, and a better future. By empowering these voices and addressing the root causes of the looting, Myanmar can begin to rebuild itself and reclaim its rightful place as a sovereign nation rich in culture, resources, and prosperity.

A Moral Imperative: Unveiling the Truth

It is our collective duty as global citizens to shed light on the truth behind the looting of Myanmar. By dispelling the lies and exposing the injustices that plague this nation, we can inspire change, support those affected, and work towards a future where Myanmar's resources are valued and protected. The time for action is now, as the truth, lies, and the future of Myanmar hang in the balance.

This first in-depth piece of reportage about the largest natural resource heist in Asia reveals Myanmar's world of secret-keepers and truth-tellers.


     In Myanmar, where civil war, repressive government, and the $40 billion a year jade industry have shaped life for decades, everyone is fighting for their own version of the truth. 
Until the World Shatters, takes us deep into a world in which journalists seek to overcome censorship and intimidation, ethnic minorities wage guerilla war against a government they claim refuses to grant basic human rights; devout Buddhists launch violent anti-Muslim campaigns; and artists try to build their own havens of free expression.

     In the bustling city of Yangon we meet Phoe Wa, a young photojournalist pursuing his dream at a time when the government is jailing reporters and nationalist voices are on the rise. In Myanmar's far north, we meet Bum Tsit who is caught between the insurgent army his family supports and the business and military leaders his career depends on. His attempt to get rich quickly leads him to Myanmar's biggest, worst kept secret: the connection between the jade industry and the longest running war in the world.

     Until the World Shatters weaves Phoe Wa and Bum Tsit's stories to reveal a larger portrait of Myanmar's history, politics, and people in a time and place where public trust has disappeared.
