The Voice Weekly was a news journal published in Burmese language. The journal was launched in 2004, and the first issue appeared in September 2004.[1] The founding publisher was Myanmar Partners Think Tank Group.[1] It was more focused on Burmese political issues. It was suspended one week together with 7 Days News for publishing Aung San Suu Kyi news on front page in November 2011.[2] The magazine was suspended by the government in July 2012.[3]


Following the seizure of power by the military government in February 2021, it was officially announced that the Voice Weekly journal would cease publication in March of the same year.[4]
