October 30
A three-day Safety and Security Training course was conducted in October for human rights focal persons based in the Sagaing, Magway, and Mandalay Regions, according to an announcement made today (October 30) by the Ministry of Human Rights under the National Unity Government (NUG).
The training aimed to enhance awareness of both personal security and digital security. It covered key topics such as precautions for personal safety, measures to ensure travel security, communication security, and protection of personal data. These sessions were delivered by an experienced external security and technology expert.
Additionally, the program discussed the dangers posed by the military junta’s surveillance systems, including the PSMS monitoring system currently being used to oppress civilians, and the risks arising from the junta’s unlawful “security laws.” It also addressed the specific security threats faced by women and ethnic minorities under the regime’s oppressive control.
Participants actively engaged throughout the sessions — discussing, asking questions, and sharing experiences. They expressed their commitment to disseminate the knowledge and awareness gained from the training back to their respective local communities.
According to the NUG Ministry of Human Rights, the government continues its efforts not only to document and collect evidence of the junta’s ongoing human rights violations but also to provide essential education and support for communities on the ground to help them stay informed and secure.
