Crossing The India-Myanmar Border On Foot

[Nilgiri]

Pretty interesting @Aung Zaya @tarpitz @MINN @Devilduck , Myanmar looks cleaner and better organised than Indian side.

Lot of friendly Burmese ...lot of squiggles

Myanmar looks

Fruits of low population.

I liked his Russia tour.

Thinking why he has skipped BD and when he will go Pakistan like Mark Wiens.

Well North East is not exactly a huge population density (esp once you leave Assam river areas). It has just been relatively ignored by (federal govt) India infra+Economy wise. Attitude (and fiscal + strategic resource buffer + discipline) is changing now but it will take time to permeate.

it's interesting !! bro seem infra like roads and bridges is now well-developing there. i think. a few years back , roads in there were so bad and took me more than one day to get there. it's pretty different now. cant wait the time India - Myanmar - Thailand highways is finished.

Squiggles. some said it's butt and boob. whatever we love it. it's so much easy to write .

But then there is public thinking also involved.They border BD.

Yes bro, this crossing was not even possible for this fella not too long ago...so big changes are happening and more to come like you said!

"Butts and boob" made me ...spot on. Yah it looks very efficient way to write though. Without too much training you would likely be able to read the writing on our oldest Temples in South India...they come from same family . BTW, can you read mon and pyu script?

I liked his Russia tour.

Actually I came across him when he did his collaboration tour in India with Harald Baldr (who I came across when I was looking for videos on Paris metro today lol). His channel has really grown so much now! I remember when he had just a few hundred subscribers. Good for him....I dont think he is so bankrupt anymore...just bald . Yes I hope he visits more places in region like BD, Pak, SL etc too....he always brings a funny direct non-PC perspective for everything...but he is very kind understanding guy too.

true. bro
our current trade volume is tiny compared to our country size and population so it has many room to grow. I believe that it can be doubled within just 2 or 3 years with ease if our infra is ready. and u know the HQ of narga rebel who was against India is now captured by army. it's another visible steps to improve our relation and trade that area.

mon is ok. but to read pyu is difficult without proper training. bro

Yep, large part of trade growth can also be formalisation of the smuggling going on now so it gets on the books. Improve the infra etc...and people have less incentive to smuggle since the costs increase to do it.

Interesting to know about mon/pyu. Somewhat similar to our circumstance, I can go back and read overall ok (though various words I need to look up)...but go further past that and I struggle with older scripts here too...and eventually they become near unreadable without learning like you say.
