Soldier students: Job training gives hope to Myanmar's military defectors
Briefly

Defectors from Myanmar's military and police, like Ko Aye, are learning essential skills such as phone and vehicle repair, paving a hopeful path towards civilian life.
As Ko Aye embarks on this training to repair mobile phones, he expresses optimism for the future, stating, 'If Myanmar gets peace one day, I'll return and repair phones there.' His journey reflects resilience, and a commitment to build a better life after fleeing oppression.
Ko Aye's skills in phone repair and crafts not only serve as a means of income, but also signify a new chapter where former defectors can free themselves from the shadows of their past.
The training program introduced by People's Goal empowers defectors by equipping them with vocational skills, thus offering them a chance for reintegration into a peaceful society.
