Myanmar Ministry of Information
Myanmar’s Ministry of Information was established in 1947 to control state media and information dissemination. Headquartered in Nay Pyi Taw, the ministry oversees state media operations including Myanmar Radio and Television (MRTV), the Information and Public Relations Department, and the Printing and Publishing Department. The organization controls television broadcasting, film production standards, and content censorship. Since the coup d’état in Myanmar in 2021, the ministry has played a clear role in pushing pro-state propaganda and restraining the activities of news media.
