Burmese Kaleidoscope
BURMESE KALEIDOSCOPE—Journey into a Lost Era—1948-1988 is a collection of stories from all walks of life in the first 40 years of the country’s independence: train travel, going to the movies, a car owner’s worries, the black market, the rice trade, or supernaturalism.
1. What was it like when most of your money was declared worthless in a demonetization?
2. How did ‘nationalization’ affect everyone, from the private business sector, banks, industries, and the country’s farmers down to the mom-and-pop store at the corner?
3. What happened when the entire Socialist system suddenly collapsed in 1988? How did the Burmese people survive these tumultuous times?
4. What was it like when trains pulled by steam locomotives from Rangoon to Mandalay had to stop overnight in Pyinmana and cover the rest of the trip with a military escort when passing through rebel held territory?
