OverviewAPI
Myanmar's junta has mandated military service for young people, enforcing a two-year conscription for men aged 18-35 and women aged 18-27, while specialists up to age 45 must serve for three years. This conscription is a response to the military's challenges due to personnel losses while fighting insurgent groups and pro-democracy fighters. The law mandating conscription was introduced in 2010 but has only been enforced now, with non-compliance leading to imprisonment.
