Sanktionen gegen Myanmar, Google, Amerika, Myanmar und ich…

So sehen sie also auch aus die Sanktionen gegen Myanmar, Google – Amerika – Myanmar – und ich… Es wurde eine Verbindung zwischen Ihrer aktuellen IP-Adresse und einem Land hergestellt, gegen das die US-Regierung Sanktionen verhängt hat. Weitere Informationen erhalten Sie unter…. war die Meldung welche mir bei dem besuch von AdSense angezeigt wurde. Die Sanktionen gegen Burma bestehen seit 2003. Bevor sie aufgehoben werden können, muss der Kongress in Washington über jeden einzelnen Bereich beraten, für den sie erlassen wurden, und seine Zustimmung geben. Das sag ich nur gute Nacht, Danke Amerika 😉 …

It is a city halfway between Yangon and Bagan. Visitors can stop over in Pyay and travel on to Bagan and Mandalay. Pyay is situated on the eastern bank of the Ayeyarwady River on a lovely location.

Pyay was anglicized as Prome after the Second Anglo-Myanmar war and in ancient times was known as Thaye-khittra (Srikshetra). Srikshetra. the ancient Pyu capital about five miles to the east. is interesting place to visit because of their historical importance and archaeological sites.

There is a chamber in the southern sector of the platform housing a duplicate of the Buddha’s tooth relic of Kandy. Having been placed beside the original tooth-relic of Kandy for a time it is believed to have absorbed the aura of the original and become just as potent. The tooth-relic from the Shwesandaw Pagoda is customarily taken out from its chamber in the month of Dazaungmone (November-December) every year and ceremoniously taken on a tour of the city once every three years so that worshippers might pay homage to it and revere it with their own eyes.

Myanmar Goldene Zeiten voraus

…dies ist ein sehr schoene dokumentation ueber dieses wundervolle land. Ein land das mich verzaubert hat, wie Rudyard Kipling schon schrieb, ‚dies ist Burma – und es wird wie kein anderes Land sein, das du je kennenlernen wirst‘. Jeden tag erlebe ich diese besonderheit, ich erlebe menschen die anderem leben mit innigem und tiefem respekt entgegen treten, einem respekt der von innenheraus zu kommen scheint. Ich erlebe eine reinheit der menschen wie man sie sonst nur von kindern kennt, eine unschuldigkeit und naivitaet die mich einfach verzaubert hat. Nun weiss ich warum Burma das goldene land genannt wird, nicht aufgrund von wundervollen goldenen pagoden und tempeln, sondern aufgrund der herzensreinheit seiner menschen!!
