The shooting of a young woman during protests has deepened anger at Myanmar's coup leaders. In "Eyes on Asia" this week we discuss the downward direction of the crisis since the military took power two weeks ago, amid fears of growing violence and a prolonged Internet blackout. We also look at Clubhouse, the online forum that briefly enabled free debate among Chinese-speakers and spooked Beijing. Featuring RFA journalists Mat Pennington, Paul Eckert, Kyaw Min Htun and Yun Wang.
