Hi all,
In 15 Years, how do you foresight Yangon developing? Like wich city in Asia ?
Or in other words, if you had to compare, given your actual knowledge.
You think it can become like Bangkok ? Or more like Dhaka ? Or maybe Phnom Penh ?

Hi all,
Did some of you study Myanmar language at the Yangon University of Foreign Languages ?
I'm interested in taking evening courses there as soon as i arrive, was curious to know.
If you study in other places, and are satisfied with it, mention it of course !
Thanks, Cheers !

Just an update with this video on the subject i found :
-
Is this really how Burma wants to brand itself?
It's called marketing...
The country want to attract more mid-high income level tourists. So the video shows want they want to see : Exotic religion, historical sites they can climb, crafted goods to bring back home, quiet and peaceful people, quality time with beautiful sightseeing.
I'm not saying it's good or bad, i'm really curious to hear what kind of video you will do to advertise this country that you seem to know very well (which is not my case).

Truly beautiful video...
Surprised to see Ron Fricke work... I can feel the Baraka vibe
Thanks for sharing !

Thanks a lot DagonKhan.

Hi all,
It seems like all company approved by MFIL are really big, with massive capital. I wonder if some members of this forums have created company already through this system, or the old one :CA. (Myanmar companies Act).
I already got a few persons telling me that they used a local system, and local agent to setup. I wonder about the whole legality of this.
Any input is welcome !
Thanks by advance, cheers.

I've recently found this list of 8 myths, maybe it can help newcomers or old timers will disagree.

For the visa point, i've found a contact in Yangon that propose me a visa like mentioned in the link. Will post again on this forum when i got it. I really wanted to avoid stopping in BKK.
In the meantime... Cheers !

Yes i was thinking of the big resorts.
I just buyed the lonely planet guide and read about this area, and they tell which place is owned by government.
But well not sure they have all the info or are perfectly accurate.

Very interesting post, thank again.
You didn't try the snorkeling there ?
Also, i cannot see any pictures in your post, are they still hosted or it's my computer problem ?
-
Interesting report, and i even got the answer to one of my questions about land there.
Who are the owners of the land there ? Cronies and/or government only ?
-
Thanks again SVB, for these interesting and detailed reports, it definitely helps.
You def have more info than a LP guide ;D
I'll be writing a report as soon as i dive there !
Cheers

Hi all,
Would be interested by an update or links about diving in Myanmar. I've seen a resort proposing dive courses (http://www.myanmarandamanresort.com/activities.htm)
I heard corals damaged in many places... But information is difficult to get.
Thanks for any info.

Great energy !

Hi all,
I'm interested to visit a meditation center in Burma when i go there by end of June.
I've practiced when i lived in India, i'm looking for medium/ long course, in a quiet area.
I've found on internet plenty of centers listed, and of course the Vipassana centers, but almost no feedback from users.
I was wondering if some member has already visited one center.
Thanks by advance !

Hi all, i'm resurrecting this Thread (if it's allowed dear Mods).
Would like to know how things are now, if they have changed :
- ease to get Internet when you rent a house (and price)
- Satellite installation if you live in remote places.
Thanks by advance for any pointers !
Cheers

Got a similar news today here, presented in a more "politically correct manner" :
http://www.4hoteliers.com/news/story/11325?awsb_c=4hdm&awsb_k=dnws
For what i know, living in China for over 2 years, they just behave the same way here...
Most of the time no regards for others, in any situation.
So i doubt this law can change much...
-
Very good, i can at least properly prepare my trip there !
The only course i've found before is this one, much less practical :

Thanks a lot for this posting. I'm new to this site and it's a marvelous source of information.
Keep up the good work !
