Yangon

It's very difficult to write something about this city after having spent here a late evening and a short night. Our flight to  Bagan is at 6 am!

Let's remember that Myanmar is still one of the poorest countries in the world and unfortunately, it is easily noticable.

Somehow people don't look tired or unhappy, however, overwhelming poverty gets into your eyes.

You can observe that the Myanmar people are calm, humble and somehow accepting their fate.
Does it tell a good future? Hilary Clinton has started a process of some changes. Adam Michnik (Polish former opositionist) has been here and talked to that famous lady - the leader of the oposition.

We are coming here again, so we will write more.

Obviously, a copmarison of Myanmar with Poland form the fifties comes to your mind  and some similarity in technological delay of Poland compared with the western Europe.
Here you can see the forties of the past century.
