Zoya Phan interviewed by Civicus

June 16, 2024 Campaign News, News Stories

“For the first time, it looks possible the military junta can be defeated by people power,” says Zoya Phan, Burma Campaign UK’s Programme Director, in an interview with Civicus, the global alliance of civil society organisations and activists.

“International donors and UN agencies are far too slow to wake up to the reality that the military is losing control and the only way to reach millions of vulnerable people is to work with local civil society and local administrations run by ethnic revolutionary organisations. It’s not acceptable to continue to operate out of military-controlled Rangoon and allow the Burmese military to dictate who can and cannot receive international aid.

“We will not give up. We will continue to fight until we have real peace, democracy and human rights in our country”, Zoya told Civicus. “The prospect of finally defeating the military gives us hope despite the suffering.”
