Great to see the people trying to live their lives. Hope they can get back to normal soon

[@KhomAsian]

Thank you Chai! My heart pain every minute people in Myanmar, Ukraine, Gaza... died and conflicted. I just hope all race/ethnic in Myanmar must stand together, overpass the difference to rebuild your nation as one. Sincerely sending love from Native Khmer in Mekong delta, VN.

[@Chai_Travel]

Thank you for your kind words 🙏 We hope together.

[@boredscientist5756]

Are you sorry for Judea (israel) getting colonized and murdered by muslims? Are you sorry for Russian speaking people getting killed by Ukraine for 8 YEARS (2014). Don't compare the situation with Myanmar...thx...open a book next time before commenting non-sense.... FUCK GAZA!

[@jonasjohnsson4429]

Dont forget the jews and other ethnic people who were murdered, raped, kidnapped in october by Hamas. Among the kidnapped people there were also for example people from Thailand. What had they done to Hamas!? Nothing. And Israel is not attacking Hamas if they are not attacking Israel first.

[@breezedoart]

The war in Myanmar is not between ethnic groups and races. It is between the military and the people.

[@jonasjohnsson4429]

@@breezedoart It is between different ethnic group and the military. Myanmar is the biggest exporter of drugs in the world. They dont only fight for independence, but also to be able to sell the opium, etc.

[@maartenaalsmeer]

I travelled through Myanmar October 2016. Aung San Suu Kyi had become State Counsellor 6 months before and the Myanmar people were very hopeful and optimistic regarding change, freedom and new possibilities for the country. It's a beautiful nation with mostly very friendly and caring people, what's been happening since then is just terrible.

[@wdaniel2221]

Tough times in Myanmar. Thanks for sharing. Hopefully this war can end soon.

[@Chai_Travel]

Cheers Will! Yeah man, it’s very complicated at the moment and hopefully they’re able to solve it soon 🙏 have a good night 🏆

[@aungmyintoo4635]

If there is no junta army ruled from 1960s, definitely Myanmar is richer than Thailand or Malaysia now. Geographically they in strategic location between China and India, rich with resources, they can speak English quite ok and rich history which is great for tourism.

[@leevikiviranta]

Myanmar is many ways rich country, minerals,gas,jewels, huge possibilities for tourism, like beautiful coastline,islands..., but,sadly very difficult with a military government. Which has ruined everything.

[@Chai_Travel]

I hope Myanmar will have true democracy some day soon 🙏

Mingalaba, Chai. So privileged to have discovered your video. Having traveled to Myanmar three times, I was in Bagan in 2012, and have friends in Yangon. It's six or seven years since the last time I was in Myanmar. I'd love to re-visit. You have inspired me to consider travelling there again, hopefully soon.

[@Chai_Travel]

Privileged indeed. Thank you for watching 🙏

Hi Chai Thanks again for this lovely video as it brings back memories of my previous trips to Bagan when I was living in MM . Also I appreciate your consideration to cut out scenes with Mr Win, that was very thoughtful of you. I could see you are sharing the feelings and sadness of locals with your big heart. Btw, I saw in the news that the status of General Aung San @12:11 minutes has been taken down a few days ago after the Junta leader recent visit to New Bagan. We think that was his order as he was filled with hatred for our true leader Aung San Suu Kyi, General Aung San's daughter. Thank you for sharing the updates to the world again

[@jonasjohnsson4429]

Me again. Great job you are doing! I was in Myanmar a year after you, in 2014. I was only in Mandalay, Bagan and in between. In new Bagan I was in a poorer part than what I saw in your video. Either they got better living conditions or we were in different parts. Before the trip, I went to a lecture here in Stockholm, Sweden. The lecturer had lived in Myanmar for quite a few years and was very knowledgeable. He believes that Myanmar will never become an orderly democracy. All militaries that exist now were born into a military state. Same with the ethnic groups, they too have been at war for generations. Is it just a civil war in the real sense? No, it's a war on drugs. Myanmar then exported the most drugs (opium, etc.) in the world. Then possibly Afghanistan took over, but now Myanmar is definitely number one again. So the war, or wars, will continue as long as the various ethnic groups, and the military, can profit from drug exports. In the cities, the people can live quite protected, as nothing is grown there.

[@Chai_Travel]

Hi again. It’s a very complicated war 🙏

[@breezedoart]

Sir, I am not sure if you're still in Myanmar or not. but if you do I suggest keeping these footages safe and not get caught at the checkpoints. They are really trying to oppress the press fredom and there are hundreds of journalists in jails of Myanmar. A few of them being foreigners. Foreigners journalists often get freed after a few weeks but I still don't want you to face any difficulty. I nearly got arrested just because I was playing game with my phone on the express when it was stopping in checkpoints. They went through my phones, gallery and everything.

[@mrdoodle8748]

Tough to watch this, I feel for those people. They obviously cannot speak up or complain, to do that would likely mean either being jailed or killed. Myanmar has been a basket case for such a long time. The British have a lot to answer for thanks to their colonial exploits. Always wanted to visit Bagan, photos of the place look stunning.

33 years ago they created New Began... Its not a recent thing and was a good thing back then. Where you are looks just like it did when I was there 12 years ago and even then there was poverty just like every country in the world. Inflation has always been a problem and 13 years ago they only accepted US$ in the limited places you could stay... I am not saying there is no war but you do seem to be dramatizing it a bit. The lack of tourist is mostly because of the over cautious travel advisories.

[@Chai_Travel]

A good thing? You have any idea what the locals feel about what happened? I'm sorry. I'm not gonna have a discussion with you 🙏 This hyperinflation is nothing like the last few decades.

I’m sorry you feel this way about my stay and the videos I make 🙏 at the moment there is no way I’m able to overdramatize the situation as it is going extremely bad with the country and its people. Of course there is a flip side to everything but I’m trying to show a very realistic picture of the state of the country. At the moment the situation is not stable and not safe. I’m sorry this comment and/or this video offend you in anyway. I hope the situation will be better for the people of Myanmar 🙏

[@mitsunori222000]

There is neither danger nor threats to foreigners, who are still welcome. In fact, the current harsh living conditions for the people living in fear are under-dramatized because they dare not speak up. The more Chai's content is spread, the more hope that they will get the help and support they deserve. Your comment 'nonsense' is way off the mark.

There are literally genocides happening left and right in broad daylight in certain cities and rural areas. What chai had seen and known is just the tip of the ice berg of the severity of the situation ...:")) Don’t even try to spread propaganda and overlook the situation in Myanmar. Even in big cities, soldiers and police are armed. Every citizen has to live in fear. Do you think people living in big cities are not speaking out because the situation is not that serious? No, they are not doing it because they are scared of getting killed. So, shut your mouth...
