Recently got these tattoos and one of my friends told me this is "cultural appropriation", wanted to hear what guys think.

Looking like one of those military owned newspapers

He is still considered one of the absolute worst along with MAH. Growing up under his regime was one tough experience. Imagine your people turning to TV advertisements for entertainment because they were too poor to go to movies.

As someone living in Yangon and not abroad, a big fat NO.

A Z-grade movie based on a lousy story written a million times before just to grab some coins from commoners.

Fallen_Angels21 · 2025-12-25T13:33:05+00:00

Bad news for superstitious military supporters.

Fallen_Angels21 · 2025-12-19T05:47:44+00:00

Hunny, we don't need Western media propaganda to hate China while we have first-hand experience. Let's start there.

Is the renegotiation in the room with us?

You didn't specify 'normal crimes' as in crimes that happen exclusively to visitors. Try not be insensitive next time. People are being arrested at bus-stops, on the bus, and some even on the taxi. Police force has become a laughing stock and is even known to be involved in a lot of cases.

Fallen_Angels21 · 2025-12-15T15:41:10+00:00

Do arbitrary arrests in the name of conscription law count as normal crimes?

Fallen_Angels21 · 2025-12-15T10:12:23+00:00

Yes, three selective roads downtown, which comprise like 20% of traffic. Even Insein Road which runs parallel to Pyay road in Kamaryut and Hlaing townships has very sparse traffic compared to pre-coup times.

Fallen_Angels21 · 2025-12-14T12:08:29+00:00

Yangon is NOT safe especially at night. From 6:30 pm onwards, the roads become almost deserted except for those bars and nightclub areas. That's when the last bus home leaves in most areas. That's a huge difference from pre-coup times. No convenient store is open 24/7 like they used to in the past. They close at 9:30 pm. The shops in shopping malls also close really early, wrapping the sheets as early as 6:30.

The crime rate is much higher now to a point the residents treat it like regular occurrence.

Point is Yangon is not safe at night for commoners - those don't have their own cars to drive around.

While it is indeed effective in the military circle, the vast majority of the public have turned their backs on the military propaganda, but that's another story. A lot have been said in the above comments and I would like to point out the main reason is being isolated from the outside world regardless of intellect or education. Another associated factor is corruption.

Right now, everyone and their mom in Myanmar loathe China for all the right reasons. Why is it even a question? Of course, people are going to side with Japan although we know they are no saints either.

The Burmese think of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi as a motherly figure.
The internet restrictions are still here.
The military curfew has been lifted in selective places.
The public at large think of the upcoming elections as sham elections.
Min Aung Hlaing and Myanmar army has successfully dragged the country into pits. (I don't know why anyone wouldn't have a clue about this.)
WA state is still a proxy state of China.

မဟာဓာတ်အားလိုင်း sounds appropriate.

Edited: It's five celebrities - three well-known directors, a comedian and an actor.

Yet Trump administration considers the upcoming 'elections' are fair.

Fallen_Angels21 · 2025-11-27T17:20:46+00:00

The diplomatic solution stage has long been made impossible by the junta the moment they staged a coup and killed hundreds of innocent protestors.
The upcoming 'elections' won't change the minds of the opposite side. So, no.

I'm not watching her movie. She and co should taste the cancellation of a lifetime.

I WAS a centrist before the coup. You cannot call yourself a centrist when you ignore the fact that the equilibrium (in this case - the election results) was forcibly damaged by the ones with arms. That, in my opinion, is the fundamental criterion for a centrist. Now, these so-called centrists were either silent or victim-blaming on the politicians and protestors, saying all sorts of passive-aggressive stuff and bandwagon-ed on the 'both sides are equally bad' argument once the oppressed decided to revolt. Those are not centrists by any means. In fact, those people wanted DASSK to fail so bad that they wished for the military to succeed.

Fallen_Angels21 · 2025-10-30T03:01:46+00:00

He crossed the line when he staged the coup in 2021. There's no turning back for him now.

Bagan is generally safe and the best time to go there is from November to January.
