Twilight Over Burma

It provides some insight into the history of Myanmar, especially Shan State and Hsipaw, but it is a weak memoir. This is mainly from the chapter that explained the story of a third party (why!?!?) And the husband's views when captured by the military. The strength of this book is her idea of ​​local customs, adaptation, and everyday life. It also unfortunately reminds me of the possibility of being destroyed.

RANGOON - Films about Prime Minister Lee and his Austrian wife "The Twilight" are approved by the Film Review Committee before being approved for the first broadcast in Myanmar in the international movie of annual international human rights and human dignity It will be judged. According to the Board members, this began on Tuesday. This movie tells the true story of an Austrian woman, Inge Sargent. After marrying the prince of Shan State Sipauu, she became a member of the royal family. It covered the early days of Burma independence immediately after the military coup in 1962, and was based on Sargent's autobiography "My Life as Myanmar's Mystery: My Life as the Princess of the Great."

The people of Myanmar live under an authoritarian military regime and are widely condemned by their repressive policies and serious human rights violations. Various forms of military regime have dominated Myanmar for more than 40 years. Until recently, there seems to be no hope or optimistic view, and this situation may be improved. In 1988, people in Burma objected to military rule for 25 years with unprecedented civic riots in the history of Myanmar. After seriously repressing these demos and murdering hundreds of protesters, the military imprisoned thousands of political party opponents under severe circumstances, sometimes under deadly circumstances. However, even if power is established by power, the military promises to do elections in 1990.

Because Myanmar was a colony, the military regime changed its name to Myanmar in 1989. Some countries still officially call it Myanmar, even the dominant coalition national democratic federation likes Myanmar. But on a daily basis, most local people call it Myanmar. When you visit, you can use it interchangeably. After decades of military rule, the first democratically elected government held power early in 2016. However, the military still occupies one-third of the government's seat, and there is still a long way before citizens can freely express their opinions without fear of retaliation. It is still a subtle matter to discuss politics with the people of Burma, and people are still worried that they will be a problem.
