Belgian Financial Sanctions,

Lieutenant Colonel Myo Myint Aung has been the Yangon Region economic Minister of the State Administration Council (SAC) since 2 Sep 2022. As the Minister of the Yangon Region, he is directly involved in and responsible for decision making concerning Yangon region. Additionally, he previously served as Yangon Military Recruitment Commander and Military Judge since the establishment of military courts until Sep 2022. In this capacity, he was allegedly involved in the process of death sentences and execution of four democracy activists in Jul 2022. During his tenure as Military Judge, numerous members of the opposition were sentenced to death and prison terms. He is therefore responsible for serious human rights violations since the 2021 coup in the SAC and as a Military Recruitment Commander and Military Judge.

Le lieutenant-colonel Myo Myint Aung est ministre de l’économie de la région de Yangon depuis le 2 septembre 2022.
