Myanmar says 2024 census shows population of 51.3 million
Myanmar said its 2024 census found a population of 51.3 million, slightly smaller than 10 years ago, as the junta prepares for promised elections amid ongoing conflict and unrest across the country, state media reported on Wednesday. The census, which was held in October, will be used to compile voter lists for the elections planned for this year that opposition groups have widely condemned as a sham.

Re: census: "The entire exercise of population census was peaceful, a likely pointer for the conduct of peaceful elections."
Minimum of 50 confirmed assassinations of ward administrators & census officials; 7 percent of all 63,000 villages in the country enumerated.
Election will be a bloodbath.

Bizarre analysis from Indian Army linked thinktank CLAWS...

-NCA EAOs invited to 🇮🇳 in Nov "fighting against Myanmar military" (nope)

So who plays the role Turkey did in taking down Assad?
With the regime in Myanmar losing control of Border Guard Police barracks 5 and the entire 257km border with Bangladesh, we could be seeing the start of a wave of rebel successes spurred on by the Syrian example #OpSec
