Statement (6/2025)
2 July 2025
1. In light of the current political situation in the Kingdom of Thailand, all Myanmar citizens residing in the country, particularly those who have sought refuge due to the violent repression by the military junta, are respectfully urged to avoid areas where Thai nationals are staging protests and are strongly advised to refrain from engaging in any political activities related to Thailand.
2. Given the ongoing crisis in Myanmar, many citizens have been compelled to seek refuge in neighbouring countries. In this context, it is vital that they respect and live in harmony with the laws, customs, cultures, and societies of their host countries. Myanmar nationals in the Kingdom of Thailand are therefore encouraged to contribute positively and support their host communities in any way they can.
3. The National Unity Government would like to express its sincere gratitude, on behalf of the Myanmar citizens residing in the Kingdom of Thailand, to His Majesty the King of Thailand, the Royal Thai Government, the Royal Thai Parliament, the Royal Thai Armed Forces, and the Thai people for their continued compassion and support.
4. Myanmar citizens who have fled their homeland due to the brutal oppression of the military junta pose no threat to Thailand’s national interests. They are ordinary people who aspire to return home once the military dictatorship has come to an end.
5. The National Unity Government reaffirms its commitment to respecting Thai society, culture, and traditions, and to ensuring that Myanmar citizens live peacefully and responsibly during this temporary period of refuge. The National Unity Government respectfully appeals for the continued support and protection of Myanmar nationals residing in the Kingdom of Thailand, in the spirit of humanitarian consideration.
