Myanmar Bulletin

Since January 2014, Myanmar Bulletin has been published to provide a filtered collection of systematically archived Burmese language information to civil society leaders so that they can be kept up-to-date on the latest news in Myanmar. There are two Bulletins: daily and monthly editions. They cover the most important and relevant events that occurred in Myanmar during their respective time periods, in both electronic and hard copy. The service is free and available via subscribing to a listserv or through an online website.

 

There are five sections to the contents of the monthly bulletin: main theme, peace and conflict, parliaments and political parties, human rights and foreign relations, In the main theme section, our bulletin team reviews news events which occurred during that month, selects the most important, collects the new, opinions and articles related to that theme and rewrites a summarized news presentation, with hyperlinks, chronology and an overall timeline. In the other sections, there is abridged news on each topic together with an event timeline in chronological order. There are also footnotes for each topic.

 

So far, we have 360 registered subscribers who regularly receive the bulletin. In future, we plan to send it to all union and regional MPs.
