Following the recently concluded elections in Myanmar, EngageMedia sits down with Maung Zarni, Burmese scholar and co-founder of Forces of Renewal Southeast Asia (FORSEA), to discuss how the poll results tie into the bigger digital rights challenges that the country is facing today. The eighth episode of the podcast also discusses Facebook’s role in the Rohingya crisis, and if they’ve done enough since their 2018 admission that it was used to incite violence against the ethnic group.
