Myanmar citizens residing in Japan have submitted a petition to the Japanese government requesting pressure on the military commission for the immediate release and emergency medical treatment of State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi. The petition emphasizes serious concerns about Aung San Suu Kyi’s health condition and urges the Japanese government to pressure the military commission to grant her immediate access to emergency medical care.
The petition expresses deep concern about Aung San Suu Kyi’s well-being under the military commission’s illegal detention, where she has been denied adequate medical care. The international community has also voiced concerns about her health condition. The petition strongly condemns her continued detention as a political prisoner and emphasizes the urgency of addressing her medical needs. The Myanmar citizens in Japan highlight that her current health situation requires immediate attention and proper medical care, which has been systematically denied by the military authorities.
Given Japan’s long-standing diplomatic relationship with Myanmar, the petitioners express hope that the Japanese government will take effective action to secure both Aung San Suu Kyi’s release and access to proper medical care. The Myanmar citizens in Japan believe that international pressure, particularly from influential nations like Japan, could potentially convince the military commission to grant clemency to Aung San Suu Kyi. The petition underscores the humanitarian aspect of their request, focusing on the basic right to medical care that should be granted to all detainees, regardless of their political status.
