Dear Yangon


  • Negative viewers will say electricity is not served 24/7 365 days a year. Do still positive thinkers view it as "we got electricity very often!"?
  • Some says Yangon is getting dirty despite some says it is progressing slow and steady.
  • Yangon, a place claimed for the Commercial capital *of 58 million Country; where 10 flights a day landing; is running her daily routine without efficient infrastructure boasting a billboard "Towards a Modern Developed Nation"
  • Yangon, a place where you can see "electricity will be back 24 hours" in local news paper every year.
  • It is a place "trucks are used for daily passengers in and out of city" hearing "shouts towards its passengers from a bus conductor" educating how you should ride a truck properly.
  • Yangon, internet is slow or out of service from time to time to forecast the weather of politics; people predicts something must be wrong with it for those days.
  • Yangon, she is belong to the majority who tries to earn .50 cents to 3 US$ a day.
  • It is the place where the land mark of the Country exists. Shwe Dagon Pagoda as in many Buddhist temples have, Board of trustees are ex-Generals who talk "Buddha, Buddha" but work "Soldier, Soldier."
  • Yangon is a place of "the Rich" free from Forbes list of World Richest people, not because they are poorer, but because of "EU/US/Canada economic embargo/sanction"


    (i found this from my draft, this has been written for years now and electricity in Yangon is getting better though most of the facts remain true to me.)
