Farewell to Myanmar
After eight days in Myanmar, it's time to say goodbye and return to Bangkok. We are flying from Mandalay and now using the opportunity to make final entries of the last days and put in the pictures. With great pleasure qe are sharing with you our impressions, even though we know that not everything can be transmitted in full.
After several stays in this country over almost 5 years, we finally realized that the name BURMA in the feeelings of a large part of this society is unjust, because it excluda a large percentage of the population who ethnically have nothing to do with BAMAR (adjective of Burma).
Although the name of the Republic of the Union of Myanma (or Myanmar) was established after taking power by the military junta, it reflects the multi-ethnicity of the nation. We, therefore, believe that Myanmar tells us more about the society than Burma.
We hope that the rapidly advancing technological development of the country (observed by us since 2011), and thus an increase in the number of tourists, will not change for the worse those wonderful people, always smiling and kind to foreigners.
We just like MYANMAR!
