Facing Corporate Irresponsibility: Politisation and Struggle of Myanmar Garment Workers Pre– and Post–CoupOn the morning of the 1 February 2021, after a few days of increasingly worrying rumours, the Commander-in-Chief, Min Aung Hlaing, announced that the military forces had taken back the control of the country. Accusing the then governing party of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, the National League for Democracy (NLD) of electoral fraud; “order and discipline” had to be restored in the country. This accusation had been flagged several times in preceding months by military forces, after the military backed-party, the Union Solidarity and Development Party (USDP), once again faced a massive public rejection with the 8 November 2020 poll. With this ballot, while the USDP came second, it only secured a marginal 33 seats in the whole assembly, while the NLD won no less than 396 seats in both houses, securing a parliamentary majority (attained at 322 seats). The military immediately rejected these results and started to campaign to discredit the election.
