At the beginning of the film, Rambo has long since stopped asking about world affairs, and does not ask who is right and who is wrong on both sides of the conflict in Myanmar. Later, he participated in a party to save his compatriots or perhaps to save beautiful women. As for the film’s criticism of the Burmese military government, that’s about the film, not Rambo.
Let's take a look at the history of Myanmar:
1278: The Yuan Dynasty of China set up the "Myanmar Province", and "Myanmar" got its name.
1875: Western Karenni State is recognized as a sovereign state.
1885 (Eleventh year of Guangxu): Britain destroyed Burma and became a province of British India.
1886 (Twelfth Year of Guangxu): Sino-British Burmese Treaty, China recognized Burma as British ownership.
Before 1948, Kayin State became an administrative region of Myanmar. Since 1948, Kayin State and other ethnic minorities have engaged in guerrilla warfare with the Burmese military government.
1989: The Myanmar authorities changed its English country name from "Union Of Burma" to "Union Of Myanmar".
At the beginning of the film, "BURMA" is displayed on the map, as if some foreigners still call China's Tibet "TIBET".
Some news media just like to be self-righteous, as if they are the savior, just like a group of American doctor missionaries assisting Kayin State in the film.
In fact, this is just their job. If they don't broadcast some false news or make up some beautiful stories, they won't win the Pulitzer Prize and won't hold their jobs.
As for the truth in Kayin State, it is not the movie that has the final say.
