I’m particularly proud of this one, as it comes from a now-defunct but much-loved weekly journal published by our hard working friends at Pansodan Art Gallery between 2013 and 2014 (or thereabouts). Called Pansodan Arts and Culture Friday Journal, it featured ruminations on Myanmar society in both Burmese and English. We feature a dispatch by anthropologist Felix Girke on the much-maligned National Races Village in Thaketa. He finds, pace the conventional foreigner wisdom that the place is full of only lies and stereotypes, “more than meets the eye.”
