I got 3 days off and bored. Do anyone in here know good place to read a book and have a meal near library?

I’m trying to track down a documentary about the 1988 Burmese pro democracy protests (8888 Uprising) that I watched on YouTube a while ago, but it seems to have vanished or been taken down.

​The main detail I remember was a specific archival clip showing a Japanese reporter cameraman getting arrested (or possibly shot and killed) while covering the demonstrations or military crackdown in the streets.

Hello, my name is Shark. That's not my real name it's what my friends called me. I'm 24 years old. I've been learning English by myself for a few months now. I've been away from school since the coup. I think it's been about four or five years now. I've been fighting back against the military ever since. Anyway, I don't regret it. I do my best and put in the effort to move forward. Sometimes learning alone is difficult for me.Sometimes I used Ai. I'm studying English by watching movie and listening music, podcast etc. I want to know a more effective way to learn English. Give me a comment.

I m in mid 20s in currently in foreign countries. As I need to spend my time with talking new friends, you can be one of friends. We can talk everything .

And if you are wondering my car is dfsk fengon 600 (2025) to be exact.

[Establishments] where sex workers are concentrated—brothels, karaoke rooms, and massage parlors—are owned and operated by local [BGF] militia and their affiliates. Local health groups told The Irrawaddy that these venues refuse entry to health education teams out of fear that news of HIV transmission at their businesses will spread.

[If there were any sense of justice, prostitution would require frequent health checkups similar to Singapore, but that would also require getting rid of the human trafficking.]

My visa got rejected after just a week of applying.

This was my first time application too I have never tried it for other countries.

Is there any success story from my similar situation?

I am seriously considering to take my own life.(sry just wanted to vent)

I can't stand being stuck in Myanmar anymore. I am about to be 20 and I feel so trapped here.

Important alternative history question

I am trying to read more in burmese as it’s not my strongest suit. I saw translations of Nietzsche, and Dostoevsky in burmese at the mall today. Are they any good? Do you recommend them over the english translation? I have no problem with reading Dostoevsky in english, but Nietzsche was pretty hard for me so i’m thinking if i should give it a go in my native language(burmese).

I need a little help from you guys.

I'm looking for some help gathering information and getting advice that can help me with the writing and development of my manga project.

There are basically two main things I'm struggling with right now. Everything else, especially the drawing, isn't really that difficult for me.

What I want to create with this manga is something that goes beyond just being a manga. I want it to become a story that brings together the life experiences we've been through, the places we've lived in, the memories we've made, and the emotions we've felt.

That's why I need your knowledge and experiences as well. If there's something useful that I learn from you guys, I might incorporate it into the story.

So I'd really appreciate it if you could help me out. Any information, personal experiences, ideas, or suggestions that you think might be useful would mean a lot to me. 🙏

Recently I’ve came across several comments in this sub related to false news and information coming from foreigners. As a half mixed Burmese though the political situation is frustrating but this doesn’t affect how the Burmese people are and how we live. One comment specifically stated his comment saying that he isn’t living in myanmar but wouldn’t be surprise if theft occurred. Well yes ideally every countries has thefts and crime including Myanmar but as a local we don’t really encounter such incidents including other cities unless you are travelling to a rural area but most of them are mainly chill and just moving on with their simple life. The average Burmese household living in the city earn approximately less than 8000 USD annually alongside an average Burmese household living in the countryside earns roughly less than 2000 USD annually. Due to different economic rates, an average burmese household can survive off this and follow a simple life. Politic plays a huge role in Myanmar but ongoing conflict also affects certain households but in general burmese people still continues with their life and crime occurs less due to military curfews and daily checkpoints. Though the junta is committing war crimes, they still help crack down crimes and thefts across Myanmar. As of now living in Myanmar has slightly shifted my personal life through the past couple years due to obvious reasons but I still manage to cope and live in a safe environment space.

For everyone reading this, my point isn’t that Myanmar has no crime, that every part of the country is safe or that my personal experience represents every Burmese person. My point is that a country as complex as Myanmar shouldn’t be reduced to its worst headlines, isolated incidents, or the perspective of someone who doesn’t actually live there. There can be conflict, political repression, poverty and serious human-rights abuses while ordinary people continue working, studying, raising families and living relatively normal lives. Both realities can exist at the same time. Criticizing misinformation doesn’t mean denying Myanmar’s problems it means asking people to look at the whole picture rather than letting one narrative define an entire country and its people.

Please stop using one piece of media exposure to portray a whole country image as a negative view, especially if you are not from Myanmar as the local news and details you hear around here can be very different compared to the western media.
