NYI LYNN SECK 18 DEN: Time to say Goodbye

"Okie. I was wrong! I have to accept whatever I had done. So be it. Here
I published nearly 900 posts and I hope at least you could find out one
small useful tip from them. This blog will not be active anymore. For
my closed friends, I'll let you know when I start my new other blog.
Again!! I dont need visitors. I m just expressing myself here. So pls
stay away with me if you think I m insulting others. We, me and
Mayvelous were very sorry for previous post, it doesnt mean asking
forgiveness, that is what we truely believe. I do thank for everyone
who visited here and couraged me for making many posts. I love this
blog too much as myself. So I'll leave it as remembrance; likes old
diary, and I'll start my new one soon. No comment pls!" by Nyi Lynn Seck

I just read this post today, just a few minutes ago. I feel so sad and disappointed about his decision. I personally did not know him but i know his blogs. He has been writing for quite a long time. Perhaps the first professional Myanmar Blogger.
The problem started after Nyi Lynn Seck posted an article criticizing other bloggers on their design and lack of creativity. When many got angry, he decided it was time he should stop writing for a while. I do not believe this is a good and right decision. Here is my argument.

1. Internet is a free community. Blogger is also a free community of people. Although he criticize other bloggers, he didn't personally blame anyone. He just commented on general. No insult to anyone in particular. No one should feel insulted.

2. People don't like being criticized. However, if the criticism is a constructive one, people should accept it, or at least give it a serious consideration. In my opinion, NLS's article is just a constructive opinion.

3. People has the right to freedom of expression. NLS voiced his opinion. Other people who disagree can also voice their discontents too. There is no point NLS should feel sorry for that. A few criticism or opposition shouldn't deter one from his work or goal.

4. I strongly disagree with his first sentence, "Okie. I was wrong! I have to accept whatever I had done". In my view, he has done nothing wrong. He just voiced his opinion. Those people who criticize also did not do anything wrong. They just voiced their opinions too. No one is wrong, and no one need to apologize anyone.

The best thing Nyi Lynn Seck should do is to keep on writing his blog. He should not stop just because he caused some stir in the blogger community. This is a community with freedom of expression, so people should respect other people's opinion whether they agree with them or not.

Under the rain in Chin State

It is raining all day, almost everyday. The roads become quite wet and muddy. I am really traped inside now. It is inconvenient to go out in the rain. Whenever it rains in Chin state, the temperature drops dramatically, and it becomes very cold. And the wind also blows quite strong. The sound of wind blowing through the pine tree is so loud and terrifying. And the thick fog reduces visibility to almost zero. Everything becomes quite gloomy. In this small little town in Chin State, in the heavy rain and thick fog, I am traped indoor. Although I want to go out and take photos, this sad weather doesn't let me do what I want to do. So all I could do is to lie down in my bed and wish for sunlight. Because of continuous rain, I couldn't wash my old clothes. Smell coming from the pile of old clothes in the corner of my room is now quite unbearable. And I am gradually running out of clean clothes. If the rain doesn't stop in a few day, I think I will wrap myself in a big blanket li

How to insert images and pictures in Gmail

Gmail is cool, really cool and I use it as my primary mail. I used to use other emails before but now I use gmail as my sole email. I even assess my office pop mail using gmail's pop collector. However, there are a few things that I like to see in gmail. 1. You cannot insert images and pictures into gmail message. You can send them as an attachment but you cannot insert them into the message body. 2. You cannot format the message using html. That is too bad. OK, they are too bad but you can still do these, and it is not difficult. Very easy indeed. To so these, first, open a google document. Write your message with message in it. Just write anything you want and insert any picture or image anywhere you want in the message. After you finish, just select the whole page and copy. Then go to gmail, open the compose window, and paste. Done! It is that easy. Now what if you want to do some html formatting? Go to google pages, create a new web page (no, you don't need to publish it),

How to address a person properly in Myanmar

In Myanmar, if you want to be seen polite, you should be able to use proper title when you address somebody. Burmese use appropriate titles and pronouns when addressing each other. When you are talking to an elderly male, you should put “ U ” (pronounce Oo) in front of his name. Thus, Mr. Ba becomes U Ba . This is also true if the person you are addressing is a government official or somebody of high social status. When addressing an elderly female or a female official, address her with “ Daw ” in front of her name. (E.g. Daw Mya ). When talking to a male of the same age and social status, you should put “ Ko ” in front of his name. ( Ko Mya ). If a female of the same age, use “ Ma ” instead. ( Ma Mya ). To a younger male, you can either use “ Ko ” or “ Maung ”. ( Ko Mya or Maung Mya ). To a female of younger age, use “ Ma ” also. ( Ma Mya ). To address children, use “ Maung ” for a boy and “ Ma ” for a girl. You should also be able to use proper pronouns when talking to Myanmar pe
