National Unity Government: Ministry of Home Affairs and Immigration Statemennt (8/2023) - Statement on Travel Authorization

Description: 

"1. The National Unity Government is the legitimate people’s government formed by the Committee Representing Pyidaungsu Hluttaw, comprising elected members of Pyidaungsu Hluttaw. 2. As the terrorist military council unjustly seized power from the people by means of force, the entire population across the country has taken up arms and joined the Spring Revolution in accordance with their right to self-protection. 3. As the Spring Revolution marks the 2nd anniversary, the National Unity Government has gained control over certain territories through the leadership of the people and battles fought by the revolutionary forces. 4. It has been known far and wide that the ongoing inhumane atrocities committed by the terrorist military council have resulted in countless loss of lives and properties of the people of Myanmar. Therefore, there is an urgent need for humanitarian assistance for the affected people. 5. The National Unity Government has been providing as much humanitarian aids as possible to the people for their losses due to the atrocities committed by the terrorist military council. Hence, we urge all international organizations to cooperate with us in providing assistance to the people of Myanmar. 6. In order to ensure effective provision of humanitarian assistance to those in need and to ensure security for aid workers, we strongly urge all local and international non-governmental organizations and civil society organizations to seek prior authorization from the respective ministries of the National Unity Government before taking surveys, implementing projects, and traveling through or within the areas administered by the National Unity Government..."
