MYANMAR – On July 28th, the three brotherhood alliances announced that they will identify and take action against those spreading fake news that ethnic armed resistance organizations will secede from the country and establish a new country.
The three brotherhood alliances said that “In recent days, some idiotic and low-level individuals have published more than 10 announcements with the title “Ethnic armed resistance organizations will separate from the state and establish a new country” in addition to other titles, with poor Chinese writing and with inaccurate writing, using Photoshop. They are publishing by using fraud badges of three brotherhood alliances and false information.
The reason for doing this is to put pressure on the ethnic armed organizations that are winning every battle, to be misunderstood by the neighboring country. The three brotherhood alliances have considered that the coup armed group led by Min Aung Hlaing is working with the intention of getting a breather.
So the three brotherhood alliances warned that it is the violation of the electronic act and social community system by the persons or groups or organizations, who are spreading series of misinformation using fraud seals and information of allies. And they also remarked that such acts are of stupid and lower class and attacking politically.
In addition, communication in social networks is not a place of lawlessness, and the communication social network has memory, so it can be investigated through the IP address of those who publish fake news. The senseless actions of those who attack will be discovered in the future and severe action will be taken,” the release warned.
