The streets of Yangon, Myanmar’s largest city, looked peaceful on the morning of February 2, as people went to work the day after the military coup.

But behind the facade of normalcy, anxiety about what will happen next is gripping Myanmar.

Many people fear that the mutiny earlier this week is just the beginning of other more drastic and tougher moves.

On February 2, Health Minister Myint Htwe announced on Facebook that he would resign `depending on the development of the situation`.

The exact locations and contacts of senior members of the National League for Democracy (LND) party, including the party’s leader, State Counselor Suu Kyi, remain unclear.

An anonymous Myanmar parliamentarian revealed to CNN that about 400 parliamentarians are being `under house arrest` at a public house in Naypiydaw.

To date, the detained politicians have not tried to negotiate with the military government and it is unknown what will happen to them next.

The NLD Party yesterday called for the immediate release of those arrested, including President Win Myint and Ms. Suu Kyi.

In Naypyidaw, most social activities still take place normally, but strict security arrangements are still maintained.

According to Myanmar state-run newspaper Global New Light, while communications across the country remain disrupted, banks have reopened.

NLD spokesman Kyi Toe said on February 1 on her personal Facebook page that Ms. Suu Kyi is under house arrest at her residence.

The protests so far have been small-scale and from supporters of the military.

Medical staff at a series of hospitals across Myanmar announced they would strike from February 3 to protest the coup.

Although Suu Kyi’s supporters have not yet taken to the streets, many people in Yangon have privately expressed anger at the military’s actions, which they say disregard the will of the people in an election considered fair.

Some question why the military wants to take over power when it still benefits from previous legislative arrangements.

Failed policies under General Ne Win have plunged Myanmar into poverty.

Another coup in September 1988 led to the establishment of the State Law and Order Restoration Council (SLORC).

`No one wants the previous situation to repeat,` said an anonymous reporter in Yangon.

There are signs that uncertainty about what will happen next in Myanmar after the mutiny is affecting international investment in the country.

On February 2, Japan’s Suzuki Motor Corporation announced that it will stop operating two factories in Myanmar to ensure the safety of workers amid the current chaotic situation.
