Hi,
At last! Myanmar! Not Burma!Is it just me that has noticed how all the mainstream media AND politicians refer to Burma and NOT Myanmar? I don't know why this annoys me, it just does. We all call Bombay 'Mumbai' so why can't it be Myanmar? Is this some kind of political posturing even in the face of such disaster. I expect so.
