Abstract

This paper argues that the degree of the cohesion of military is a determined factor in the democratization in Myanmar and Indonesia when they faced similar pressures. The strong cohesive military eventually prevented the facilitation of democratization in Myanmar, while the weak cohesion within the army caused their accommodation behaviors towards the democratic movements.
