Burma Insight: Child Soldier Story (U Aye Myint - Guiding Star)

Please see the story of the child soldier reported by U Aye Myint, who is the Human Rights Lawyer working for protection of children, especially the plight of Burma Child Soldiers.

He said "Junta leaders are claiming that there is no child soldiers in Burma. Even in the state media, they say that there is no child soldiers which is different with reality. It is questionable that junta leaders are ignoring or just openly lying.

U Aye Myint said that "Let me tell you one story about 14 years old boy, Mg Aung Hlaing Phyo from Maw-La-Myaing, who is forcibly recruited as the child soldier, then forced him to work, and charge him since his only crime is he doesn't want to be a soldier".
