Most of the tourists ask now a day “Is it safe to visit Myanmar?
Is it safe to visit Myanmar? Here is the answer for every tourist planning to visit Myanmar.
Myanmar is situated in South East Asia so it is a member of not only ASEAN but also UN. The neighborhood countries of Myanmar are China, India, Bangladesh, Laos and Thailand.
There are many kinds of Myanmar native tribes (135 Ethnic groups) such as Kachin, Kayar, Kayin, Chin, Mon, Bamar, Rakhine and Shan. There are many kinds of tribes so their religion are different.
Moreover , In our country not only those native tribes but also other foreigners such as Chinese, Indian and Nepalese , live peacefully ,freely and lovely.
The best symbol of freedom in Myanmar is the center of Yangon the surrounding area of Mahabandoola Park because there are various kinds of religious buildings , for Buddhists is Sule Golden Pagoda, for Christian is Immanuel Baptist Church, for Muslims are Bengali Sunni Jameh Mosque, Cholia Jamai Mosque and for Hinduism are Ganesh Hindu Temple.
Those foreign dwellers reached to our country by trading, by migration and by renting as soldiers to our country and they became residents. Therefore they became Myanmar Citizen according to Myanmar Immigration Law and their religious days are promulgated as Gazette Holidays.
Nowadays migrating problem is Global problem because the conflicts have occurred at the border areas between local people and migrated people.
But all of those migrated people have not chance to recognize as refugees. In Myanmar, Maungdaw Region is border area of Rakhine State and Bangladesh so many Bengalis have migrated illegally into Maungdaw Region for 50 years ago because their population is burst and their land is narrow. Our government accepted them as guests. Our Diplomatic Government has tried to get the best answer for them according to our law.
But some Bengali chose terrorism and they became terrorists. So our government has tried to control them according to International Law and searched the best way to solve that problem.
Rakhine is coastal area of Bay of Bengal so there are many beaches along the cost. Among them Ngapali Beach is the most famous because of her white sand, crystal water and unspoiled beach so she is recognized as the best beach to visit by Lonely Planet.
Both Thandwe (Ngapali Beach) and Maungdaw are located in Rakhine Stare but the location of two places is so far. Maungdaw is situated at the North of that state and Thandwe is located at the South of Rakhine State.
Therefore conflict of Maungdaw does not concern with Thandwe (Ngapali) and Thandwe is peace and tranquility so that region is safe so every not only local visitors but also foreign visitors do not worry for visiting Ngapali.
