Myanmar’s military has drafted a cyber security bill that has caused alarm among human rights campaigners and business groups, the Financial Times reported.

The proposed law would require online service providers in Myanmar to store user data at a location identified by the government for three years, according to two English-language translations of the bill seen by the Financial Times.

The new rules would also require providers to hand over information to authorities “under any existing law” and give the state powers to intervene in cases that threaten Myanmar’s “sovereignty and territorial integrity”. The report said.
