BANGKOK - Myanmar nationals in Singapore are playing a key role raising funds to oppose their country's military junta, having collected millions of dollars just over the past few months.
The money is being channelled towards humanitarian aid as well as Myanmar's shadow National Unity Government (NUG) and armed groups resisting the military coup last year.
