XZ2A Myanmar
UPDATE - OCTOBER 2024: I WILL RETURN TO TEACH AND DO EDUCATIONAL VOLUNTARY WORK IN MYANMAR IN A FEW WEEKS. I WILL BE LIVING IN THE CITY OF MANDALAY. I WILL APPLY TO RENEW MY XZ2A OPERATING PERMIT BUT WITH THE CURRENT CIVIL WAR IN MYANMAR, I DO NOT EXPECT THE MILITARY AUTHORITIES TO AGREE TO THIS! MANDALAY WILL PROBABLY COME UNDER ATTACK FROM THE CIVILIAN FIGHTERS SOME TIME EARLY NEXT YEAR, AS THEY ARE ALREADY CLOSE TO THE CITY. TEACHERS AND MOST FOREIGNERS HAVE ALREADY FLED THE CITY, AND SO AN ENTIRE GENERATION IS MISSING THEIR EDUCATION. AS AN OLD MAN(!), I PREFER TO HELP OTHERS, RATHER THAN SIT ON A SUNNY BEACH IN THAILAND...
