Join us to discuss how the shadow National Unity Government in Myanmar is funding itself

As the resistance to the military junta in Myanmar escalates, the shadow National Unity Government (NUG) is using creative and tech savvy methods to gather resources. Join us for a conversation between insurgency expert Zachary Abuza and co-director of East Asia Program Yun Sun to discuss his recent policy analysis on NUG’s innovative funding – from cryptocurrencies to real estate auctions – and whether it is effective in the face of the junta’s efforts to intercept and deter potential funders amid a scorched earth campaign.
