Internal passports in Burma--nothing new, unfortunately.

Thread: 1/4) When #Myanmar citizens travel these days, you have to hold up and show your NRC and say why you are traveling and where to at check points. So there was this case, soldier and police came onto the bus and checked passengers ID. #WhatsHappeninglnMyanmar

Soldiers and traffic police checking tour buses’ cargo section at 159 miles (စမိုးရဲကင်း) after recent Mandalay clashes. #WhatsHappeninglnMyanmar
4/4) On a different occasion, I’d personally been asked for my number to closely monitor me because I am not pure Burma and Shan mixed. The policeman at a Checkpoint said “He needs to be watched. He is mixed blood”. #WhatsHappeninglnMyanmar

3/4) The soldiers said “You can’t be citizens” before they went down. The 2 men had SouthAsian appearance. #WhatsHappeninglnMyanmar
