In my opinion, everyone should choose their religion after they turn 18. I saw a news that china has a law that children can go to religion school only after they turn 18. Otherwise it is not allowed.
I think it makes sense, religion should not be force. After the citizen turn 18, they can think their own at least not just listen to branch of adult people. They know what they wanted. Do you think it will work ls out?
this isn’t really the most intellectual and thought provoking reddit post ever but i’ve just been wondering what does it exactly mean when someone adds စောက် before a word to make it a “cuss” word. as someone burmese its only normal that ik a lot of burmese cuss words although i dont use them a lot myself but every word makes perfect sense of why it makes a cuss word but i’m just curious what စောက် means and where it comes from… please enlighten me 😭
The Wa are an indigenous, traditionally tan-skinned people of the Wa hills with their own Austroasiatic language, culture, dress and rituals, they are not ethnically Han Chinese.
During the Cold War, China backed the Communist Party of Burma, whose forces established themselves in the Wa hills and recruited large numbers of Wa fighters. When Wa troops mutinied against the CPB leadership in 1989, the UWSA emerged as the dominant armed organization in the region.
Since then, UWSA-controlled territory has become increasingly integrated with China. Chinese is now widely used in education and administration, while trade, communications and infrastructure are heavily connected to Yunnan.
This can make today's Wa region appear culturally Chinese, but that shouldn't be confused with the traditional identity of the Wa themselves. The people in this video show that older Wa identity, their appearance, Wa language, clothing, rituals and dances, which still survives despite the region's rapid Sinicization.
