Nu Nu Yee shows her Tiktok profile on her smartphone. She has over 6,000 followers and dreams of becoming a social media star. After she resigned, she started to look for a job in Thailand. However, since she did not give any notice to the company, she does not have the necessary papers to look for another job. She says that she would like to go back to her place as soon as possible and open a clothing shop. “But it is difficult to find a job in Myanmar,” she says. Myanmar is now ravaged by a violent second wave of Covid-19.
