How the Myanmar Military’s Propaganda Efforts Have Evolved Over the Decades

Former intelligence officer Colonel Hla Min has revised and republished his English-language propaganda book “The Way I See It: Myanmar and Its Evolving Global Role (1988-2025),” which was advertised in junta-controlled newspapers in late May.

This book is a revised edition of his 2014 bilingual publication, which had the same title but covered events from 1988-2014. According to the advertisement, the 2025 edition marks the 31st revision of the book.

The content covers Myanmar’s geography, ethnic groups, religions, politics, economy, society and the Rohingya issue, as well as the current state of the country. It also includes strong criticisms of the United States and the United Kingdom. The book is being promoted as containing important facts that citizens and young readers should know.
