dbo:abstract
  • Justice For Myanmar (abbreviated JFM) is a covert group of activists campaigning for justice and accountability for the people of Myanmar. Justice for Myanmar's public website launched on 28 April 2020. Since its launch, the group has published a number of high-profile exposés related to the business dealings of high-ranking military and government officials in the country, in a campaign to publicly pressure the dismantling of the Burmese military's business practices and systemic corruption. In August 2020, the Burmese government blocked the group's website, under Section 77 of Myanmar's telecommunications law, which has been used by the government as a censorship tool to stifle dissent and public scrutiny. On 29 August 2020, Telenor Myanmar issued a statement confirming that it had complied with the government directive, but noted its position on freedom of expression and the right of access to information. On 3 September 2020, the group launched a mirror site to circumvent the censorship. The censorship was condemned by a joint statement by Reporters Without Borders, Sherpa, and Info Birmanie. The censorship of JFM was cited as an example in the escalation of technical censorship in Myanmar's 2020 Freedom on the Net report, published by Freedom House. (en)
