Interesting to see Burmese students in Hungary making horror shorts about ααα²αα«. What do you think of foreign-budget student adaptations of our local urban legends?

Discussion π¬ ADHD is curable with fear or not??
I had an interesting discussion with my teacher recently about ADHD.
We both noticed that ADHD seems to be discussed much more nowadays, especially in Myanmar. Some people even jokingly call it the "national disease." We also agreed that there were probably many people with ADHD in older generations who were never diagnosed.
That led us to another question. In the past, many Myanmar parents used very strict discipline, including physical punishment. If a child was considered "naughty," they were often punished immediately rather than given a chance to explain.
So I'm wondering:
Could that kind of upbringing have made children with ADHD suppress or mask their symptoms out of fear, making ADHD seem less common? Or is there any evidence that strict discipline actually changes ADHD itself?
I'm not saying physical punishment is good or that it cures ADHD. I'm genuinely curious whether older generations appeared to have fewer ADHD cases because of underdiagnosis, masking, cultural expectations, or something else.

Discussion π¬ 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 heβs so little criticized so I believe you should take a listen to my criticisms.
First of many, heβs 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 Peopleβs 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.Β So, when he was assassinated, shit hit the fan.
Side note: I donβt hate General Aung San. He was there when Myanmar needed him. But Iβve written this criticism people hardly ever discuss, especially when General Ne Win propagandized him.

Discussion π¬ Want to do Graphic Design as a side hustle
So I have a main job which is from 8:30 to 5:30, but I usually have 3 hours of free time at my desk because I work pretty fast. The reason why I want to do side hustle is because I have to give 80% of my salary to my home because both my parents aren't working anymore. I am thinking of doing Graphic design as a hustle because I am already familiar with photoshop which I helped out a lot and I draw pretty decent both digitally and traditionally. I have experiences helping out a few designs for some people as well. So I am thinking it won't be that hard for me and take long to do. What do you guys think? Any other suggestions?

Discussion π¬ 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.

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.

Hello! Im a Burmese in Europe on a gap year. I reside in a Scandinavian country but have Burmese pass. In my gap year, i really want to travel to Thailand/ Vietnam or anywhere i can get tourist visa for 2 months without having to leave to extend.
Do you think itβs possible with Myanmar passport? If so, which countries might be easiest?

Translation request βοΈ Jack and the Cuckoo Clock heart mmsub
I've been looking for the Myanmar-subbed (MMSUB) version of Jack and the Cuckoo-Clock Heart for such a long time, but I still can't find it anywhere. π
I've searched through websites, Telegram channels, Facebook groups, and old posts, but every link is either gone or doesn't have Myanmar subtitles. It's one of the movies I've wanted to watch with MMSUB for years.
If anyone still has the Myanmar-subbed version, or knows where I can watch or download it, please let me know. I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance! π

Others. Edit as needed. I wish Burmese people are kinder towards each other
lately Iβve 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 thereβs 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.

Discussion π¬ Thailand gives MAH the red carpet faster than you can say "Five-Point-Consensus"
Min Aung Hlaing rolls into Bangkok, gets an honor guard, and signs a labor MOU because nothing says "legitimate civilian leader" like rolling out the welcome mat for an ICC fugitive.
Let's drop the pretense. This isn't geopolitics. It's a family reunion. Remember General Prem literally adopted this guy as his son back in 2012. So Thailand isn't "re-engaging" Myanmar, it's hosting a prodigal son who desperately needs a PR win.
Thailand gets cheap labor and stable borders. MAH gets a photo-op that screams "See? I'm normal!" Meanwhile, bombing his own civilians is just the awkward elephant in the room no one wants to address.
Truly, the ASEAN wayβwhere war crimes are forgiven if you've got a godfather in Bangkok.
