Report by the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in Myanmar, Yanghee Lee, to the United Nations General Assembly.
“The important transition and far-reaching reforms in Myanmar must be commended. Yet, possible signs of backtracking should be addressed so as not to undermine the progress achieved … Thus, human rights should be fully mainstreamed into Myanmar’s institutional, legal and policy framework, and a culture of respect of human rights must be engendered among all State institutions and the public at large.”
