In a world where disaster should unify and awaken compassion, Myanmar stands as a tragic exception. For nearly two decades, the country has endured not only cyclones, floods, and earthquakes — but also the Myanmar military that systematically uses suffering as a tool of control. From Cyclone Nargis in 2008 to the 2025 earthquake, the Myanmar military—now operating as the State Administration Council (SAC)—has weaponized humanitarian aid, obstructed lifesaving relief, and manipulated crises for its own political survival. This special issue is not merely a chronicle of disasters—it is a reckoning. It sheds light on how the junta has delayed access, spread disinformation, endangered aid workers, and turned neutrality into complicity. These are not isolated failings. They are deliberate, calculated tactics. As the world watches Myanmar from afar, silence is no longer neutrality—it is permission. Speaking the truth is not just an act of journalism or advocacy; it is a moral imperative. This publication is a call to to stand with the people of Myanmar and ensure that aid reaches hands in need, not those that oppress.
