  6. "I thought about the circumstances that had brought me to Myanmar. I'd wanted to learn from journalists standing up to unimaginable repression."

  7. A few photos in #Benicia at night. We ate at the #Burmese Restaurant, which was fantastic! Never had Burmese cuisine before. Also a photo outside of the #ShorelightInn B&B. All walking distance.

  13. Silver #cockscomb - very similar to amaranth.
    Originally native to #India - it was saved from extinction through #cultivation because of its religious significance. #Indian , #Burmese & #Chinese gardeners usually plant them by temples.

    Cockscomb is an #EdiblePlant & a pretty #grain alternative. Often consumed in southern #Nigeria, #Benin , #Congo & #Indonesia. Young stems & flowers are #edible. Seeds are also edible are referred to as #pseudocereals.

    How's your collection of #Burmese music, anyway?

    I only remember talking to you about your recordings of the various traditions in the different parts of Indonesian Java.

  19. #Burmese immigrants SENT FROM the United States TO SOUTH SUDAN

    What happened to #ContemptOfCourt?

    Where the FUCK are the arrests of #MAGAMorons in government ?

    What the FUCK are those responsible for arresting these people fucking waiting for? COWARDS!

  20. My #philosophy students in #Myanmar have just pointed out that the correct etymology of the name Theaetetus is clearly the #Burmese term "Tha yat thee thote" (သရက်သီးသုပ်), or "Mango Salad." And I, for one, am convinced.

  21. In other news, 'last week a small #Rohingya community organisation in the UK has succeeded in securing the first ever arrest warrant for a head of the #Burmese military'.

  22. The Defense Services Medical Academy (DSMA) (#Burmese: တပ်မတော် ဆေး တက္ကသိုလ်, pronounced [taʔmədɔ̀ sʰé tɛʔkəθò]), located in #Mingaladon, #Yangon, is the University of #Medicine of the #MyanmarArmedForces. One of the most selective universities in the country, the academy offers #MBBS (equivalent of the #MD) degree programs. Upon graduation, most DSMA cadets are commissioned with the rank of #Lieutenant in the #MyanmarArmyMedicalCorps.

  23. 'American #tech firms are underpinning a military-owned company which the #American government has sanctioned for providing #surveillance and revenue enabling the #Burmese #military to carry out #HumanRights violations'.

  24. This early 1980s #Burmese pop song by #KhineHtoo was a No. 1 hit in the country, during my college year in #Burma. The title, "သိလား", means "Do you realise?".

    When I was a child a decade prior, he was a college student at #RASU, the Rangoon Arts and Sciences University.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universi

    The university offered summer swimming classes at its Olympic-sized pool. This man was one of the top collegiate swimmers in the nation, and he was a star instructor on this swimming programme. He could swim, under water, the length of the pool, and his forte was butterfly. The elegance, the fluidity—his style was a sight to behold. He taught me how to swim.

    I reminisce about those days, some fifty years later.

  25. We #Burmese don't have first name, last names, family name, man's name, and anything in between—just like the #Malays. Who cares about a man's last name, really?

    As the #man said, "What's in a name?".

  29. Another night, another great Wellington restaurant. This time it's Burmese food at Mabel's. What do you fancy from the menu?

  31. What does #Google #AI think of Google hosting #Burmese military #apps?

    '“Google’s decision to turn a blind eye to these apps is not only irresponsible, but it is also complicit in the ongoing suffering of millions of innocent people in #Myanmar. By allowing these apps to remain on the Play Store, Google is directly contributing to the junta’s financial resources, which they use to suppress dissent, commit violence, and violate fundamental #HumanRights.” –

  32. In terms of the alphabet and the ways in which the word sounds are composed, the #Tibetan script is not dissimilar from my own native #Burmese script. But on paper, no writing system beats the beauty of the Tibetan script.
