My cambodian wife just showed this to me posted by a friend on facebook. seems to be going viral judging by the frequency of comments on the youtube page.
Pure speculation I guess (unless if you know burmese) but what do you think is going on here?

Doesn't look like the thugs are really hurting them in the part that can be seen. In fact I'm pretty certain one of the guys is pretending to hit the girl in black and then clapping his hands in front of her face and another one is hitting the wall with his flat hand, maybe just to scare.
I'll ask our Myanmar colleague tomorrow morning.
Interesting going to Youtube and reading the comments. Seems some Philippinos are saying the thugs are Thais... oh, oh, now some say it could be fake...

I can't say if this particular video is genuine or fake, but the scene is familiar to me. In 2005 before coming to Cambodia I spent a week in Mae Sot, a Thai town on the border with Burma. I was involved with an organisation helping Burmese refugees. I heard a few scary stories, but more to the point my guesthouse overlooked the Thai police compound. Every day a fresh batch of 100+ Burmese would be detained for illegally crossing the border, interrogated and thrashed like in the video, then returned to the Burmese military.
I came, I argued, I'm out

Looks very fake to me. None of the girls actually scream as the get 'hit'.
I've been to Burma 6 years back. Can't really remember but do Burmese girls wear shorts like that? I seem to remember they dress more traditional/ less sexy.

The topic or post you are looking for does not exist.
Agree. Either they're not in Burma or they are in the entertainment industry and might be getting a lesson from their pimps. The guys are Burmese, not Thai, I'd be able to hear whether they're Burmese native speakers. They too aren't wearing longyi, not one of them.
Just looked again, it all looks so half hearted.
Here's the story.
All of them, the men and the women, are factory workers. The factory is in Thailand. The two women who get the brunt of the beating left the factory without telling the manager, apparently to work 'sexy' job at night. So they got the beating.
