Military Junta Deploys People’s Militia for Security at Schools and Government Offices in Loikaw

The Myanmar military junta has deployed local People’s Militia forces, especially those who support the junta and local residents, to guard schools, including the University of Technology and Computer University, basic education schools, and government offices in Loikaw.

“They’ve stationed guards at GTC (University of Technology). I have heard about it, but I haven’t been there. Also, they are collecting 5,000 kyats per household in the neighborhoods for security patrols,” a local resident reported.
