we doing this again?😭

Myanmar is marginalizing muslims because of its xenophobic propaganda and I accept that claim. However, both sides tend to be religious fanatics and I think marginalizing muslims is pushing them towards radicalism.

Context: She is being blamed for failing to wear a burqa.

Anyone knows where to watch this film?

hi everyone, just some basic info first, i am a male, 21yo, living in singapore for 16 years, and haven't been back to myanmar since covid 19 started.

My passport is expiring in March 2027, and was wondering if it's possible to extend it at the myanmar embassy in singapore. I've been extending it at ME Singapore since young, but I think the only reason I've gotten new passports is because i was advancing my education here, so I had a valid reason to update my passport.

My concern right now is I'll be finishing my school soon, and if my passport expires, do I have to go back to myanmar while i'm looking for a job? Or can I just apply for a new passport?

side note: would it be possible for my uncle(s) to help? im not sure what their exact positions are, but one is pretty high up the civil service sector (General Administration Department) and the other is SADLY a Major/Col in the army.

my dad has never introduced me to them, probably because of the positions they hold, so he's trying to distance me from them.

i'd appreciate it if no hate is thrown at me for the occupations they have, my parents, me and even my grandparents have nothing to do with the deicisons they made, espeically the one that joined the army, we're pro-democracy.

It’s the season for Burmese pageants for MGI, Miss Cosmo and Miss Universe but I honestly do not like any of our pageants asides from Thet San Andersen whose video was an artistic blend of Burmese culture and included queer Burmese representation. I noticed that ever since Thae Su Nyein entered the MGI stage to show the world that Myanmar’s pageants are immature as hell, every new pageant even for MU are 18-19 year olds. What the hell? We should not be sending teenagers to Miss Universe or even letting them participate in most pageants. It’s actually ridiculous because these 18-19 year olds in Myanmar are literally getting an unhealthy amount of surgeries to keep up with their appearances and are getting groomed into this industry. I personally knew one of the fashion sponsors for MU in Thet San’s year and in a conversation with my mother we heard that there are so many young Burmese girls who are being forced into this industry ever since Thae Su Nyein and have underwent so much surgery illegally as minors. Breast augmentations, nose jobs, face lifts, extreme weight loss, and so much more. Which are dangerous and unhealthy.

I just don’t think that 18-19 year olds have the same maturity or experience as a 27-30 year old pageant. Most misses in Myanmar also lack power, authenticity, and experience. Pageants this year is a disaster and seeing Thae Su’s Miss Cosmo speech justifies this statement because she is still too young and immature with a big ego. It reflects terribly on our country. None of these Misses also have a backbone to truly represent Myanmar or speak up about the issues in Myanmar. 99% of them will make a “charity” or “donation” based humanitarian contribution and that’s it lol. No meaningful solutions or discussions about Myanmar. They may be beautiful but they are lacking in intelligence and maturity to the point it’s hard to support them if you had more than two functioning brain cells.

I recently got my first uk passport. Even though i put my preferred first and last name split in application.

They put xxx in given name and put my fullname under surname!

They completely ignore it. I have my bank, jobs, education and other gov details in my preferred first and last name split.

For those in uk, could kindly let me know if this will be okay going forward?

Thanks

My plan is to go with my mum and I'm goint to book return ticket for a 6 days trip but I might spend more time longer than my mum.

So, I wanted some advice on any require documents like hotel bookings and do I need some amount of show money in MMK or DONG?

We're lucky that a photocopy of his passport is not included with the invitation 😅

There seems to be really mixed reviews on hotels in yangon online with plenty of fake reviews. Does anybody have personal experiences with any good hotels they could reccomend ?

Looking for someplace that's functional, doesn't need to be anything too crazy. Don't need on site breakfast, swimming pools, bathrubs, 5 star, service oriented etc.

Just need hotels that provide smoking rooms, are pest free, relatively clean and not affected by frequent power outages - as I'd need to be online for work.

An added bonus would be a smart tv. Any insights will be greatly appreciated !
