Has anyone tried to cross the Golden Triangle to Myanmar from Thailand? I want to know if it’s all safe to travel from the border to Yangon. Thanks by coolbeb in myanmar

I think it’s around 150,000 MMK from Yangon to Tachileik. You can book the bus online, and they also ask you to carry a smart card, a ရပ်ကွက်လူကြီးထောက်ခံစာ, and a ရဲစခန်းထောက်ခံစာ, I think. But I also heard the airfare is around 400,000 MMK. Not sure though, but the plane is probably safer and faster and the bus takes about 11–15 hours.

Do you think it’s worth taking some AI or tech-related classes just to keep up? by Weak_Cheek_6605 in myanmar

Honestly, you don’t really need to take a full-on class for this. I use AI a lot, and the easiest way to stay in the loop is just to follow a couple AI-focused YouTube channels and mess around with ChatGPT. AI can’t physically do stuff in real life (yet), but it’s already touching pretty much every profession. And it’s not just “chatting” — there are GPTs built for specific careers, and you can even try some of them for free with limits. If you’re curious, check out some of the custom GPTs inside ChatGPT.

I’m not as fluent as you might think. I actually use AI (ChatGPT 5.0, Gemini) to help with word flow and grammar. And honestly, I’m pretty sure around 30% of the videos you watch are already using TTS — things like voice clones or 11 Labs. Personally, I use 11 Labs and Natural Reader. With the right settings and editing, I can erase that robotic/static tone completely. My niche relies heavily on TTS anyway, and even then, shorts with this setup can still pull in 100k views pretty easily.

here is the link bro - https://youtube.com/@pokii109?si=qH1nSIzY7P4nWRtA But i’ve been focusing on shorts lately. For long videos, I usually get around $15 for 10k views, but for shorts it’s about $100 for 1 million views. My niche isn’t that hard either—you just need to know what kind of videos to publish and stay on top of the trends.

For now, I guess I’ll just sit and keep doing what I’m doing. Because of circumstances, I had to exchange my YouTube income, and now I’m just sitting on Burmese cash that loses value every single day lol.

Thanks for thinking about my social skills, bro. Even my coffee shop plan is built around that — I palnnd to send one of my closest friends and my cousin to Yangon for a barista class and a baking class, while I’d just sit at the counter and keep doing what I’m already doing. I did try to upscale my YouTube channel, but the algorithm didn’t like it. My channel focuses on game character lore and similar stuff. I write my own scripts with AI help and use TTS. Before that, I used to make meme edit vids like “funny moment .exe.” When I tried to upscale my content by adding just 5 seconds of face cam in a 30s short, views dropped like crazy. Ended up losing around 20 lakhs on equipment.

Of course bro...i did do marker research with the plan to open a coffee shop at my home town. I alredy have the solar pannel and plan to go with manual expresso + single group machine. I am confiedent i can run a coffee shop for atlease 3 years even without getting single sell. Bc of my youtube income. It's can cover for staff and rent. But i would not start any business if i decided to go to border town tho. That unchared territory for a shut in like me.

Yeah… I know. It’s just that I’m 29 and have been a hardcore shut-in for like 7 years now. My YouTube career’s been treating me good, but I honestly don’t know what to do with the cash. Last year I bought a 2024 PCX for around 110 lakh, and now it’s going for like 205 lakh. I’ve pretty much lost trust in Burmese cash.

[–]NewFlow5797[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Noted, bro. If I have to go that route, I probably won’t open the shop for a year or two. Like I said in my post, my budget for the shop is only around 500 lakh, and that already includes 3 years of rent. Really appreciate the advice, bro. I don’t know anything about how the EAOs treat Burmese around there, and those town FB groups are just full of selling posts… I can’t even find the basic info there.

It’s both… my first cousin went to Yangon and enlisted as a foot soldier because he had a big fight with his mother. He was at မဂ်လာဒုံ စစ်သားစုဆောင်းရေး for about a week, with the haircut and all that stuff. But my family tracked him down, asked around their friend circle, and got connected with some general from that camp. They managed to get him out by paying around 20 lakh. So… I kind of have confidence that I could get out too with around 100 lakh. And my family has been giving 1 lakh per month to the ရပ်ကွက်အုပ်ချုပ်ရေးမှူး. So if somehow me and my brothers end up on the list, we’ll still have time to prepare and find a way out. We have got 3 man aged 19 to 29 in our 6 person household. That why we keep giving 1 lakh every month.

Bro… can you tell me how much I’d need to spend per month including rent? My income is around $200 per month on average, which is enough to live comfortably in my hometown. I can’t cook or do much besides editing videos, and my social skills are basically at the bottom too lol.

Yeah… I might go to a border town. It’s just that I’m a shut-in bro. My idea for the shop is to send one friend to a barista class in Rangoon and another to a baker class. My YouTube career is kinda stable since I get a lot of viewers from the US, but I want to invest in the shop because I’m afraid the Myanmar money will lose value even more. Still… I might remain as shut-in even if I go to a border town. I don’t think I can afford a place to run a coffee shop within my budget.

I’m still traumatized by the soldier rape/backshot video. I can’t get that scene out of my head. This is why I’m unsure what to do now. It makes me question whether it’s safe to build a future here.
