| Myanmar lies between two great civilizations, India and China, but it has developed its own distinctive culture. Buddhism has a great influence on the daily lives of the Myanmar people. The people have preserved the traditions of close family ties, respect for elders, devotion to Buddhist teachings and wearing the simple native dress. They are a people easily contented and cheerful in the face of adversity. Myanmar people are known for their friendliness and simple hospitality. The wealth of natural resources may be impressive but the great fascination of Myanmar lies in its people.
The official language is Myanmar and it is spoken by at least 80% of the population. The spoken Myanmar language differs slightly from region to region and the minority ethnic groups have their own languages and dialects. English is spoken by many and is widely understood. |
