Trip Around Yangon, Myanmar
Our last stop on the trip to Myanmar was Yangon. It is the country's largest city with a population of over 5 million, and is the most important commercial center, although the military government officially relocated the capital to Naypyidaw in March 2006.
The video shows us in the downtown market and then moving uptown to the Shwedagon Pagoda. The temple is the most sacred Buddhist pagoda in Myanmar.

A Memory on Ancient Monasteries of Mandalay City
‘1221 Travels’ team went around Mandalay City to record a video on Ancient Monastic Buildings which are not noticed widely yet. These monasteries have stood over a century but they still look highly prestigious. First of all, we went to Kyay-Myin Monastery. The two tablets we could see in this monastery were solemnly telling us about a tragic love story of Pyinmanar Prince and Htayankar Princess.
We then moved to Mahar-Min-Htin Monastery. The way this wooden monastery was surrounded by a small moat and the structure of the broken brick staircases; they all seemed to be digging out the monastery’s glorious past for us. May be that is why our ancestors said that Mahar-Min-Htin Monastery was the best of them.
Our third destination is Thin-Ga-Zar Monastery. Thin-Ga-Zar is a monastery which Thin-Khar-Ra(Impermanence) fails attempting to affect its beauty. It seems impossible for me that there will be a rival for Thin-Ga-Zar which has stood for hundreds of years together with its wood carvings.
We also visited Ya-Me-Thin Monastery which was donated by Ya-Me-Thin Queen. The peacock seal is a perfect match for the old monastery which had been built during Amarapura Era. Inside, delicate works of art, ancient mirrored glass mosaic and gilding are waiting for visitors to be amazed.
Yaw-Min-Gyi Monastery, a merit of U Phoe Hlaing and our next spot is located at Oo-Bote-Taw Quarter. I had no doubt left that U Phoe Hlaing, the Yaw Min Gyi was an all-around, modern and well-educated civil servant when I got to see his unique brick monastery. It was once a beauty queen in Mandalay as it was a mix of Myanmar and Western Architecture.
Finally,we went to Kin-Wun-Min-Gyi Monastery. It was constructed with amazing ideas such as Lighting Concept, Door Opening and Closing Techniques and Spiral Stairs. These ideas were influenced by Architecture and rare to be found in other Myanmar monasteries. It surely is old but still beautiful and glorious.
Among the changes in our society and growing population, isn’t it our duty as Myanmar citizens to preserve and value these hundreds-year-old monasteries? As long as Yoma Mountain Ranges stand and Ayeyarwaddy River flows in our country, the blood of Myanmar will keep flowing in our bodies and it will be our duty to hold each others’ hand to preserve the beauties from our precious land.

Who are Rohingyas?
Who are Rohingyas?
The Rohingyas are a stateless Indo-Aryan people from Rakhine State, Myanmar. There were an estimated 1 million Rohingya living in Myanmar before the 2016–17 crisis. Majority of them are Muslim while a minority are Hindu. Described by the United Nations in 2013 as one of the most persecuted minorities in the world, the Rohingya population are denied citizenship under the 1982 Myanmar nationality law. According to Human Rights Watch, the 1982 laws effectively deny to the Rohingya the possibility of acquiring a nationality. Despite being able to trace Rohingya history to the 8th century, Myanmar law does not recognize the ethnic minority as one of the eight national races. They are also restricted from freedom of movement, state education and civil service jobs. The legal conditions faced by the Rohingya in Myanmar have been compared with apartheid.
The Rohingyas have faced military crackdowns in 1978, 1991–1992, 2012, 2015 and 2016–2017. UN officials and HRW have described Myanmar's persecution of the Rohingya as ethnic cleansing. The UN human rights envoy to Myanmar reported the long history of discrimination and persecution against the Rohingya community... could amount to crimes against humanity, and there have been warnings of an unfolding genocide. Yanghee Lee, the UN special investigator on Myanmar, believes the country wants to expel its entire Rohingya population. Under the 2008 constitution, the Myanmar military still control much of the country's government, including the ministries of home, defense and border affairs, 25% of seats in parliament and one vice president.
The Rohingya maintain they are long-standing residents of western Myanmar, with their community being the descendants of the inhabitants of precolonial Arakan and colonial Arakan. Rohingya legislators and MPs were elected to the Parliaments of Myanmar until persecution increased in the late-20th century. Despite accepting the term Rohingya in the past, the current official position of the Myanmar government is that Rohingyas are not a national race, but are illegal immigrants from neighbouring Bangladesh. Myanmar's government has stopped recognizing the term Rohingya and prefers to refer to the community as Bengalis. Rohingya campaign groups, notably the Arakan Rohingya National Organization, demand the right to self-determination within Myanmar.
Probes by the UN have found evidence of increasing incitement of hatred and religious intolerance by ultra-nationalist Buddhists against Rohingyas while the Myanmar security forces have been conducting summary executions, enforced disappearances, arbitrary arrests and detentions, torture and ill-treatment and forced labour against the community. According to the United Nations, the human rights violations against the Rohingyas could be termed crimes against humanity.
Before the 2015 Rohingya refugee crisis and the military crackdown in 2016 and 2017, the Rohingya population in Myanmar was around 1.1 to 1.3 million, chiefly in the northern Rakhine townships, which were 80–98% Rohingya. Over 900,000 Rohingya refugees have fled to southeastern Bangladesh as well as to other surrounding countries, and major Muslim nations. More than 100,000 Rohingyas in Myanmar are confined in camps for internally displaced persons. Following a Rohingya rebel attack that killed 12 security forces, August 25, 2017, the military launched clearance operations that left 400-3000 dead, many more injured, tortured or raped, villages burned, and over 400,000 Rohingya (about 40% of the remaining Rohingya in Myanmar) fleeing to Bangladesh. Rejected by the country they call home and unwanted by its neighbours, the Rohingya are impoverished, virtually stateless and have been fleeing Myanmar in droves and for decades.
The modern term Rohingya emerged from colonial and pre-colonial terms Rooinga and Rwangya.The Rohingya refer to themselves as Ruáingga. In the dominant languages of the region, they are known as rui hang gya (following the MLCTS) in Burmese and Rohingga in Bengali. The term Rohingya may come from Rakhanga or Roshanga, the words for the state of Arakan. The word Rohingya would then mean inhabitant of Rohang, which was the early Muslim name for Arakan. Andrew Tan argues it comes from the Arabic word Raham (God's blessing) and speculates that early Muslims in Arakan referred to themselves as God's blessed people.
