very interesting -Htoo again!
thanks mgz for the good news!I will be there in February for my third time and certainly buy it.
Am in Myanmar from 22nd for 2 weeks with my husband and 5 yr old son and am a bit nervous cuz I%26#39;ve never been anywhere where my mobile doesn%26#39;t connect. Also it%26#39;s virtually impossible to call landlines in Myanmar from india- connections are very bad and am a bit nervous as to how family in india would connect with us if there was an emergency either at home in india or with us in Myanmar. Hope the SIM card%26#39;s working by next weeek !
All decent hotels in Myanmar have direct dial international connections so do not worry but it is pricey($3 a minute+)
Unless you have to buy these things, don%26#39;t. Don%26#39;t put money in Tay Za%26#39;s pocket unless it%26#39;s absolutely necessary.
Yes, SilverSwimmer, it is Htoo once again. Htoo=the generals. TZ is the corporate face of the junta. I never fly Air Bagan anymore (the planes aren%26#39;t safe anyway, because nobody can legally sell them spare parts,) and don%26#39;t shop at L%26#39;Espace Avenir or stay at his resorts. I have in the past. No more.
