On this World Senior Citizens Day, the New Myanmar Foundation (NMF) stands in solidarity with Myanmar’s elderly, whose wisdom and resilience have been integral to our nation’s history. In the wake of the ongoing political crisis and military repression, our senior citizens face unprecedented challenges—displacement, lack of access to healthcare, and systemic neglect.

Despite these hardships, they continue to inspire us with their strength and courage. NMF calls on the international community to intensify support for Myanmar’s elderly, ensuring their safety, dignity, and well-being. As we honor their contributions, we reaffirm our commitment to fighting for a just and democratic future where all generations can live in peace and security.
