Abstract Folk sports are the countertype of modern sports: invented traditions, bolstered by tangible ritual and intangible myth, played by the common folk in order to express a romantic ethnic identity. Like other cultural forms, traditional sports and games around the world are becoming marginalized in the face of modernization and globalization. In 2003, UNESCO ratified the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in an attempt to counter such trends of cultural homogenization. As elements of intangible cultural heritage, folk sports now fall under the auspices of UNESCO safeguarding policies.

(Supplied: John Gunn) RELATED STORY: Crowd goes wild over sepak takraw. It's as if Jackie Chan invented tennis RELATED STORY: 'Kung Fu soccer' growing in popularity as refugees import sport RELATED STORY: Logan players make Australian team for ancient sport of Sepak Takraw The ancient east Asian sport of caneball, also known as chinlone, is helping Karen refugees from Myanmar feel more at home in Australia. KEY POINTS: Caneball, also known as chinlone or sepak takraw, is played across SE Asia Refugees from Myanmar are playing it in Australia and building community ties There are competitions in various regional centres across Australia The game is Myanmar's national sport and is similar to volleyball but players use their feet instead of their hands to pass a ball made of handwoven rattan. Many refugees from the Karen ethnic group that fled the war-torn country now play the game regularly in Australia, thanks to competitions run around the country. Moo K'Lue Di Gay dreamed of playing caneball at the world championships when he was a boy. Known as Eagle to friends, Moo K'Lue played the game growing up in Myanmar, previously known as Burma. When he reached state level he was told he had to adopt a Burmese name if he wanted to keep playing.

  • The ACS Chat Room Was Buzzing When Edward and Chin Teng Coincidentally Announced Their Plans to Be in KL Early October
    The ACS chat room was buzzing when Edward and Chin Teng coincidentally announced their plans to be in KL early October. Timing was perfect; one from Guangzhou, China and another from New Zealand. Both of them were available for a meal in Seremban and I could make the trip down to Seremban with my luggage and hop off to the Yangon trip early the next morning. Thanks to Sing Khow for giving me ride down, Edward took the opportunity to visit family in Seremban while Sing Khow, Chin Teng, Zip, Koon, Mei Ling and me went durian chendol hunting in Seremban 2. We were disappointed as Nyona Colours were closed for the day and had to settle for the regular in Paul Street. It was a good turnout at Ming Kok Restaurant. As Yatha could join us, the debate on who dropped the baton continued. Edward was known as Valentino after a couple of whisky. Kit Siew who was back from Melbourne also joined us. The evening was early and we landed in Pence Restaurant for more beer, coffee shop talk and laksa. Fui demonstrated useful tips on how to savour fish balls. It was an evening of good fun, reliving our childhood days. Zip and I got back to her place in Rasah and managed to sneak up 2 hours of sleep before the van collected us for the airport. 9D/8N Adventure in Myanmar: 5-13 October 2016 Our trip to Myanmar was decided in March 2016 because of Air Asia cheap fares. Mei Ling made the bookings; chose the dates and cheapest flights and then it was a done deal and we paid additional charges for luggage, visa, hotels and insurance.

  • The Role of Higher Education in Socio-Economic Development in Myanmar: External & Internal Perspectives
    The Role of Higher Education in Socio-Economic Development in Myanmar: External & Internal Perspectives Zin Mie Sharr, University of Oslo, Norway The Asian Conference on Education 2019 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract Political metamorphosis in Myanmar with the mandate of National League for Democracy paved the way for major structural reforms in various sectors. Unsurprisingly, higher education sector is one of them to undergo drastic changes since it is regarded as one of the key sectors in Myanmar’s socio-economic development. And, efforts are made to reengineer the sector with the involvement of intra and international organisations. In this paper, three aspects are discussed to understand the overview of recent reforms and changes of higher education system in Myanmar: the role of Public Higher Education in Myanmar’s Development Policy, triangle relationship between ministries, external agencies and public higher education institutions, formal and living autonomy of public HEIs in relation to national development. The first two aspects focus on the “external” dimension of the relationship public higher education institutions in Myanmar have with national government and international agencies and the last point addresses the “internal” dimension of the universities and their adaptation on national development initiatives. The methodology included review and analysis of scientific papers, policy documents, reports and other relevant sources. In summary, the findings reveals that Myanmar is heading towards decentralisation and increasing autonomy for universities by allowing universities to directly interact with local, intraregional and international stakeholders. However, the implications of enhanced autonomy in university leadership remains as an empirical question. Future research is recommended in the area of university adaption towards organisational change in alignment with recent development.
