What it's like in Myanmar now

Here's a writer at the American Thinker telling what it's like in quasi-communist Myanmar (Burma), which has very little tourism in the past few years, since the military coup took place. On the plus side, however, many there do not like influence by Islam:

While Su Kyi is held in high regard in Khayan, the Muslim rebels, beloved by the international media, are less popular. The Burmese majority is Buddhist. Cows are sacred, if you haven’t heard. Restaurants in Myanmar don’t sell beef, which crimps the style of McDonald’s. “The Muslims have ‘kill the cow’ day [Eid al-Fitr],” I was told.

Well I'll give them credit for this: they certainly understand some things about Islam that many leaderships in the west are turning a deaf ear and blind eye at. Let's hope the Burmese are vigilant and do what they can to put a stop to the jihadists in the area.
