Part 17/18:
Most experts agree that Myanmar’s future hinges on the ability of civilian leaders, the military, regional actors, and the international community to collaborate constructively — embracing reforms, respecting human rights, and fostering social cohesion.

The world watches with bated breath to see if internal resilience and regional diplomacy can forge a way out of this crisis, or if Myanmar is destined to be mired in cycles of repression similar to its darkest chapters.
