[@zawaung1988]

Name “Myanmar “ is officially use in meetings and classes and in the book. But they say themselves “Bamar “, when British invaded that country, they tried to spell that “Bamar” , but they spell it wrong , so the name of “Burma” was born.

[@cam5816]

They should’ve called it Hoss imo

[@SweatcatTrashEdits]

nah

[@SweatcatTrashEdits]

its a citizens relative thingy

[@HolaThisIs_Flower]

That is correct. And our country name is bamar or Myanmar but since the British, the foreigners just know it as “Burma” the name Myanmar is also not pronounced “my an mar” it’s pronounced “Mya ma”.

Hey girls, please help me with something. I heard citizens are forbidden to use social media, like WhatsApp or Instagram. Is that actually true? I lost all type of communication with someone who live in Yangon.

​@@iKenedyFCIt depends on which apps you were communicating with your friend For example apps and games made from china is boycotted which basically means banning it
