What Does SLORC Stand For?

SLORC stands for State Law And Order Restoration Council Of Burma

The State Law and Order Restoration Council (SLORC) was a military junta that ruled Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) from 1988 to 1997. Established following a military coup, SLORC aimed to restore order and governance after a period of political upheaval. The council implemented strict military control and repressive measures against dissent, while also promoting economic reform. In 1997, SLORC was rebranded as the State Peace and Development Council (SPDC), but it continued to face criticism for human rights violations and lack of democratic governance.
