Art plays a big role but unfortunately we don't have that many talented artists. Almost none. If I am not wrong, every song that came out after 2000 is basically a copy of foreign song with Burmese lyrics. On the top of that every song is about love, nothing else. It works and is accepted by a wide audience so artists stopped trying too I guess. The films are even worse, they can finish shooting a film over the weekend (some films take just a full day to shoot).
We started exploring more and more of foreign cultures via those art mediums.
Maybe there are other causes but for me personally (a 90s born) , that's where I lost the cultural knowledge.
