Apr 17 2023

MYANMAR – Orang ramai di Myanmar, yang dilanda persengketaan, tinggal di rumah, enggan menyertai sambutan perayaan air tradisional sebagai protes terhadap serangan udara junta baru-baru ini yang dilaporkan telah menyebabkan 168 orang awam terkorban.

Jalan-jalan kekal lengang di Naypyidaw, Yangon dan Mandalay pada 13 April walaupun terdapat astaka tajaan junta dibina untuk menyimbah air ke atas orang ramai semasa perayaan air Thingyan yang menandakan Tahun Baru Burma.

Aktivis pro-demokrasi melihat perayaan rasmi sebagai percubaan untuk menunjukkan kepada dunia bahawa negara Asia Tenggara itu kembali normal, dan menyeru orang ramai untuk menjauhkan diri dalam solidariti dengan mereka yang ditindas kejam oleh tentera.

Pesta air dirayakan pada 13-16 April tahun ini. Cuti umum bermula pada 10 April dan berlangsung sehingga 17 April, permulaan Tahun Baru Burma.

Ia biasanya merupakan perayaan yang meriah di Myanmar yang majoriti penganut Buddha dengan orang daripada semua agama menyertai acara tersebut, tetapi keadaan telah berubah setelah rampasan kuasa tentera pada Februari 2021.

Sebuah kumpulan aktivis menggesa orang ramai untuk mengingati “revolusi Thingyan” dan bukannya “Thingyan gembira” kerana ia menyuarakan sudah tiba masanya untuk pemberontakan terhadap diktator tentera.

Independent Catholics for Justice di Myanmar, sekumpulan paderi, agamawan dan orang awam, telah menggesa orang ramai untuk menyertai “mogok” dengan tinggal di rumah.

Dr. Sasa, seorang Kristian yang menggunakan satu nama dan berkhidmat sebagai menteri kerjasama antarabangsa dalam cabinet bayangan Kerajaan Perpaduan Nasional (NUG) yang dalam buangan, berkata, “Saya berdoa tahun ini akan menjadi tahun terakhir untuk merayakan pesta air di bawah diktator.”

Dalam satu kenyataan yang dikeluarkan pada 13 April, beliau menggesa orang ramai “untuk berarak bersama ke arah matlamat kesatuan persekutuan dengan perpaduan.”

Sementara itu, NUG berkata dalam satu laporan bahawa angka kematian dalam serangan udara junta di sebuah kampung terpencil di wilayah Sagaing yang diperangi telah meningkat kepada 168, termasuk 35 kanak-kanak dan 27 wanita.

Keganasan, bagaimanapun, berterusan dan empat orang terbunuh dan 12 yang lain cedera dalam letupan bom kereta berhampiran pagoda di bandar Lashio, utara negeri Shan, tempat orang ramai berkumpul untuk meraikan perayaan air pada 13 April, menurut laporan media.

Junta terus melancarkan keganasan di beberapa kampung di seluruh negara walaupun dikecam global.

“Dalam menghadapi kempen keganasan yang meluas oleh rejim tentera, Amerika Syarikat tetap komited untuk mengetuai usaha antarabangsa untuk memastikan rejim itu bertanggungjawab atas rampasan kuasa dan penderaan terhadap orang awam,” kata Setiausaha Negara Anthony J. Blinken pada April. 10 pernyataan.

Lebih 3,200 orang telah terbunuh manakala kira-kira 21,000 ditahan sejak rampasan kuasa 2021, menurut kumpulan pemantau tempatan. – UCA News
