Title: Why Is My Culture Special?
General Statement: Have you ever felt ashamed of your own culture
because of people's thoughts? Well, I have, but now I have learned
to be proud of where I came from and not to care if people only
shame it with laughter. Myanmar (Burma) is a sovereign state
located in Southeast Asia. The ruling military government changed
the name from Burma to Myanmar in 1989, after thousands were
killed in an insurrection.

Now let me share some reasons why my culture is a big element of
my identity… In Burma, there is an architectural structure called
“Shwedagon Pagoda”. It holds a bit of the buddha. It is believed
to contain artefacts of the four previous Buddhas of the present
who had a relatively long period of time in Buddhist cosmology.
The Shwedagon Pagoda is also covered in 4531 diamonds!

Have you ever seen some people wear this yellowish-white paste
on their faces? It is actually a bark paste that is considered to
give a cool sensation and provide protection from sunburn. This
is a way for us Burmese people to be recognized. When you go
to Burma, it is plausible that you’ll see people having this bark
paste rubbed onto their faces.

Even though we are an unfamiliar country, we’re also
acknowledged by the mass of our country... Did you know Burma

In Burma, people wear this bark paste for a natural sunscreen. It is
made out of bark, wood or roots of a thanaka tree. The thanka
trees grow abundantly in central Myanmar. Did you know this cream
has been used by Burmese women for over 2000 years? The creamy
paste is applied to the face in ravishing designs and circulations
with water. The thanka’s aim is to protect the skin and for beauty
purposes.
