Introduction
by Nishigaki Mitsuru

Friends, do you know about the statistical data of the country of Myanmar? The population of Yangon, the capital of Myanmar is, 4,800,000 according to the census. This amount is more than the population of Osaka's 2,500,000 or that of Las Angeles 3,500,000. (What a big city it is!!!???) Moreover, GNP of Myanmar is US$250 for every citizen and such amount is the same as that of Uganda and Nigeria of Africa and also the same as the GNP of Bangladesh, one of the neighbors of Myanmar. This country includes in the poorest countries of the world. (Is it such poor country?)

Whatever it is said, the statistical data of this country should not be believed. As the information given by this country are usually Lopsided, there may be a small group of men who knows the real facts about it.

As I have been working here about four years, I want you to introduce the life of Myanmar citizens with the aspect of a foreigner worker, who has been moving around this society. And my true intention of writing this article is to make easy for you, when you make a further study about this country.

In fact, I have requested to the other people to the essay section of this homepage, it will dissatisfy them, if the person who ask them for the essay, writes nothing. So I have to write this article.

I was very bad in essay writing since I was a young, despite I am a Japanese, my Japanese Language writing is so befuddled that my friends always derides me. So with worry, I am foolishly going to write am article in the Internet that the world is watching. Forgive me. Let me know, if the heading of the article differs from the subject. Please, give me a chance of writing continuously and I will be happy if you read my contribution with patience.
