As of the early Morning of March 15th, all mobile data connections in Myanmar have been cut off and there is no mobile internet connectivity, so delays in operations are possible.

Mass protests have been taking place across the country since the military seized control on 1st February. There are unconfirmed news that this will continue indefinitely, according to a latest update by Spica Services Myanmar provided to UK P&I Club.
At the moment, land based fiber lines are still operational and thus, home and office wifi connectivity remains in large areas of Yangon. There is however an expectation that these connections may be terminated soon also, leading to very few and difficult communication channels, Spica Services Myanmar says.
Currently, large areas of Yangon are under Martial Law, although Port areas are thus far exempt and appear to be operating normally.
Note, however with the difficulty and danger evident in moving around the City, delays to operations are expected.
This is the same in local Hospitals and banks, although these have been directed to continue operating normally.
