However, Time magazine did not describe the Myanmar coup leader with a good name, but rather with a bad reputation. According to TIME magazine, other leaders were included in the list because of the things they worked hard for their country. On the contrary, the Burmese military leader seized power in February 2021, a country of 54 million people.
In addition, the magazine said the coup leader gave a speech that NUG, PDF groups and the ethnic armed groups supporting them, the EAO, will be resolutely attacked. The Myanmar Coup leader, which he leads, is considered the worst group in the world after the Taliban in Afghanistan, according to Time magazine. Since the military coup, villages have been bombarded with artillery, air strikes have killed thousands of people and forced millions of people to flee and hide, according to Time magazine. Even before the seizure of power, the United Nations accused General Min Aung Hlaing of mass killing Rohingya Muslims with “ genocide intent,” according to TIME magazine.
TIME magazine also wrote that the coup of General Min Aung Hlaing has brought Myanmar back to being an outcast country. In addition to that, the 2022 Democracy Index of the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) also listed it as the second worst dictatorship in the world, according to Time magazine’s writings.
