Living in Myanmar
Also known as Burma, the nation of Myanmar is situated in Southeast Asia and sits next to countries including China, India, Bangladesh, Thailand and Laos. The nation has been unsettled by one of the longest running civil wars seen, since its independence in 1948. This can be explained by the myriad of ethnic groups inhabiting the country; there are 135 ethnic groups recognised by the state which has been accused of committing human rights violations. Perhaps the most prolific of these incidents is the genocide against the Rohingya people, who have been refused to be recognised as Burmese citizens, despite their long history there. These people are banned from owning land, having more than two children and cannot travel without permission from the state; there has often been violence against these people. In 2017, the Rohingya Muslims became victims of what is described as genocide by Myanmar military forces and local Buddhist extremists, something condemned by the UN and the rest of the international community. Economically, largely due to civil war, Myanmar is an incredible poor nation and it lacks much of the infrastructure needed to grow. Whilst China and India have attempted to strengthen ties for their own economic gain, many sanctions have been placed by bigger powers in response to the atrocities committed by the government. Besides this, natural resources are big earners for Myanmar, with 90% of the world’s rubies mined there, amongst many other precious stones.
