My country, Myanmar, has been connected to Internet since 2000 but it becomes more popular around 2006. Because of having Internet in Myanmar, I strongly believe that Myanmar people have a chance to widen their views and opportunities. Also, Myanmar business improved a lot because of Internet because we can contact with other countries and import products. For education, Myanmar students can improve their knowledge skills and any other skills because of Internet and they have a chance to study in foreign countries if they want to try. For example, me, I can come and study here because of having Internet in Myanmar. For communication, Myanmar people away from Myanmar can now contact with their family easily and comfortably. I strongly believe that Myanmar people can improve their skills and views because of having Internet.
However, Now, Myanmar government said Internet is illegal and Myanmar people can't use Internet at the beginning of 2012 and the government will stop Internet access in the whole Myanmar country in 2012. The main reason why they talk Internet is illegal is that people are now having contact with their family who are away from Myanmar with Internet by using Skype, Google, Facebook,etc. So that Myanmar telecommunication doesn't get enough money for the government.
How do you think about it? For me, it is ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE. I hate my government because they want their people to be uneducated and they want people not to know about the world. I can't imagine how Myanmar people will be if the Internet is not in Myanmar. Very crazy government and they have no brains.

The last sentence of your post makes me laugh Yin. I completely agree that this is not a good idea! Internet helps provide education and other opportunities no matter where you are in the world. To help the country's telecommunication they should just tell people to commmuniate with people in the country through phone. If they stop internet in Myanmar we wont be able to talk to you once you return home. :( This would be very sad. There has to be another solution!!!!
