First of all, I wish to express my gratitude to the National University of Singapore which offered me a 3-year scholarship for this study. I wish to express my indebtedness to Professor Than Tun. Although I have never been his student, I was taught with his book on Old Myanmar (Khet-hoà: Mranmâ Râjawaà), and I learnt a lot from my discussions with him; and, therefore, I regard him as one of my teachers. I am also greatly indebted to my Sayas Dr. Myo Myint and Professor Han Tint, and friends U Ni Tut, U Yaw Han Tun and U Soe Kyaw Thu of Mandalay University for helping me with the sources I needed. I also owe my gratitude to U Win Maung (Tampavatî) (who let me use his collection of photos and negatives), U Zin Moe (who assisted me in making a raw map of Pagan), Bob Hudson (who provided me with some unpublished data on the monuments of Pagan), and David Kyle Latinis for his kind suggestions on writing my early chapters.

Early this year, the Burmese military also known as the Tatmadaw detained State Counselor Aung San Suu Kyi and other civilian leaders in a coup d’état ending a decade of quasi- democracy in the country. The junta has since killed hundreds of protestors and detained thousands of activists and politicians, but mass protests and mass civil disobedience activities continue unabated. In addition, a devasting humanitarian crisis has engulfed the country as people go hungry, the healthcare system has collapsed and COVID-19 has exploded adding a new sense of urgency as well as desperate calls for emergency assistance.

  • The Impact of Censorship on the Development of the Private Press Industry in Myanmar/Burma
    Reuters Institute Fellowship Paper University of Oxford The Impact of Censorship on the Development of the Private Press Industry in Myanmar/Burma by Kyaw Thu Michaelmas 2011 & Hilary 2012 Sponsor: Thomson Reuters Foundation 1 Acknowledgements This study would not have been possible without the support of several people who have generously assisted me throughout my study. First and foremost, I would like to thank the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism (RISJ) and the Thomson Reuters Foundation for giving me the valuable opportunity to study at the University of Oxford. I would like to thank James Painter and Dr. Peter Bajomi-Lazar for their good guidance and encouragement. I also thank RISJ director David Levy and staff at the RISJ - Sara Kalim, Alex Reid, Rebecca Edwards and Kate Hanneford-Smith - for their support during my fellowship period. In addition, I would to thank Professor Robert H. Taylor and Dr. Peter Pritchard for their useful advice. Last but not least, I would like to thank my fellow journalists from Myanmar for participating in my survey and the publishers who gave me interviews for this research paper. Information on the use of country name The use of the country name of Myanmar has been controversial among the international community since the military government changed the names of the country and cities in 1988. From that point on, Burma officially became Myanmar and Rangoon became Yangon. In this paper, I will use Burma when I refer to the period before the junta changed the name and use Myanmar for the later period.

  • Myanmar (Formerly Burma) Pronounce Its Name Correctly (MEE-Ah-Mah) and You’Ll Be Sure to Impress the Locals!
    Myanmar (formerly Burma) Pronounce its name correctly (MEE-ah-mah) and you’ll be sure to impress the locals! Note: Myanmar is still a country in transition as it opens up to more foreign visitors, and so travel information to the country is quite changeable. Visas Tourist visas are single entry only and allow you to stay in Myanmar for 28 days. They have to be used within a 90-day window after they are issued. You always need a visa in advance of coming to Myanmar. The visa fee is $20. You can apply for the visas online through the Myanmar Embassy’s website, which has more information about visa requirements (http://www.mewashingtondc.com/visa_form_1_en.php). Climate The climate in Myanmar varies depending on elevation, but most of the country is considered tropical or subtropical. There are three distinct seasons: Cold dry season November - February 68° - 75° F Hot dry season March - April 86° - 95° F Hot wet season May - October 77° - 86° F From June to August, rainfall can be constant for long periods of time, particularly on the Bay of Bengal coast, and in Yangon and the Irrawaddy Delta. The rain is less intense in September and October. For these reasons, more tourists travel to Myanmar during the cold dry season. During those months, accommodations are more limited and potentially more expensive. Try booking ahead to avoid paying high prices for last-minute rooms. The hot muggy weather keeps many tourists away in other seasons, making some prices lower and accommodations easier to come by. As a general rule, temperatures and humidity become lower at higher altitudes.
