Myanmar Now is driven by a desire for truth and justice. We are guided by a commitment to journalistic professionalism, but eschew false equivalence and bogus notions of balance. We aim to see through the fog of Myanmar’s civil war and present a clear picture of what is happening on the ground. We view the situation dispassionately, but also compassionately, always bearing in mind the suffering of the country’s people.
