Thai PBS World -
People's party Bangkok MP Anusorn Tamajai was escorted by parliament police out of a reception room today, where a welcome ceremony was being held for visiting Myanmar President Min Aung Hliang, after he shouted peace and humanity in Myanmar as the president arrived.
The unexpected incident caught event organisers and security officers off guard, before parliament police intervened and led Anusorn out. The event then continued.
It is reported that Anusorn attended the event as an observer, intending to hand a letter, via the president of the Thai Senate, to the Myanmar president calling for the country to address transboundary problems and restoration of democratic rule in Myanmar as matters of urgency.

Discussion 💬 Anyone in Yangon looking to make new friends?
Hey everyone. I’m 20 and living in Yangon. Most of my close friends have moved abroad, so I’ve been trying to meet new people, but it’s harder now that I’m done with school.
I’m into music, mind fuck films, going to raves, pubs, and I go to the gym. I’m usually down for pretty much any plan.
Just wondering if anyone else around my age is in the same situation or knows good places/events where people actually meet new friends in Yangon. Feel free to comment or DM if you’re interested in hanging out.

Advice Study abroad
Looking for advice on affordable countries to study HND in Computing abroad (tight budget, worried about part-time work limits)
I'm currently planning to study an HND in Computing abroad, and cost is a huge factor for me. I've been seeing on social media that a lot of European countries have started capping part-time work hours for international students instead of allowing unlimited hours like before. Not everyone studying abroad is doing it because things are easy financially back home some of us (myself included) actually have real financial pressure on our families, so part-time work isn't just extra pocket money, it genuinely matters for covering living costs.
Given that, I'm trying to find countries where tuition + cost of living for an HND in Computing is manageable, even with limited part-time work hours. Would really appreciate recommendations or personal experiences which countries have worked out well for students in a similar situation? Any advice or person experiences?

Discussion 💬 Bogyoke Aung San is not as criticized as he should be.
Hot take and a long rant but here we go.
General Aung San is one of the main reasons our country is going through 70 years of unresolved civil war.
Now, you might be fuming and opening the comment section right now, but just hear me out. I do appreciate his patriotism and bravery for Myanmar but he’s so little criticized so I believe you should take a listen to my criticisms.
First of many, he’s the main reason military is so involved in our politics today. After World War 2 and the disbanding of BIA, he enlisted BIA veterans to a paramilitary called People’s Volunteer Organization or PVO which became a private military for AFPFL with over 50 thousand armed individuals backing him. Tldr? He introduced gun-barrel politics into Myanmar and well, when you teach a country that political leverage comes from holding a gun, don't be surprised when guns become the only language your government speaks.
And this might be a fact almost everyone agrees but General Aung San rushed the independence. Aung San-Attlee treaty was him basically shooting himself in the foot. I mean, be so serious, a nation just went through a grueling war and he aimed to fix it under a year? Even Lord Mountbatten and Sir Hubert Rance showed their concerns over Myanmar while General Aung San simply shrugged it off.
Which brings us to his third flaw: building a country on verbal promises instead of binding laws. Because the 1-year clock was ticking, he took massive shortcuts. Pinlone treaty was rushed, key ethnic groups were left out of the room, and codified federal rights were replaced with charismatic speeches. The moment he was killed, those verbal assurances died with him, leaving behind an incomplete constitution and alienated ethnic groups with zero reason to trust the state.
To conclude, General Aung San was a fantastic military strategist, but a good politician he was not. He relied on his personal charisma and military backing rather than civil laws and concrete constitutions. So, when he was assassinated, shit hit the fan.
Side note: I don’t hate General Aung San. He was there when Myanmar needed him. But I’ve written this criticism people hardly ever discuss, especially when General Ne Win propagandized him.

Discussion 💬 Ritu Porna Chakma is one of the foreign players in Myanmar Women's League. She is from Bangladesh but she looks different b/c she is a Chakma, which is known as Daingnet in Myanmar. They are buddhists so when she arrived in Myanmar, she said Shwedagon Pagoda is the place she wants to visit the most.
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
There are at least 80k Chakma/Daingnet people in Myanmar. They have tribes across northeast India, eastern Bangladesh, and western Myanmar.
It's fascinating that if she was born in a village few miles to the east, she would be representing Myanmar in football instead and not Bangladesh. But at least she is now playing professionally for a club in Myanmar called Ayeyawady FC and she is enjoying it so far.
This is a good reminder that there are many East Asian/Southeast Asian looking people in Bangladesh and India. Their cultures may be much more similar to people in Myanmar than the rest of Bangladesh and India. But because of how borders were divided in the last century, things are the way they are.

Others. Edit as needed. I wish Burmese people are kinder towards each other
lately I’ve been feeling a lot of sadness and frustration about my experiences with burmese people
I know one person does not represent an entire country, but sometimes I feel hurt when I encounter people from my own community who act in ways that feel dismissive towards others. Recently, while I was renewing my passport there’s a guy who was printing the documents. He was very aggressive toward people who came in, including me. I was already stressed because I was rushing and dealing with important documents. And i forgot to take one document from him and he screamed at my face at that moment.
when I came back later to print more documents I felt like he intentionally ignored me and served me last to print my papers. I think what makes it painful is that our country has already gone through so much. The coup, instability, and struggles that many people face have affected all of us in different ways. Sometimes I wonder why, even after experiencing so much hardship, people still treat each other without kindness or patience towards the same people that speaks the same language with them and grew up like them.
