On 12th of this month, I happened to visit Myanmar Amazing Expo 2011 in Thuwanna Stadium. As per media, this year is re-birth of such mega expos in Myanmar. There has been big gap of such Expos in this recent years. Myanmar Amazing Expo was emphasizing on building construction and decoration materials. However, the display items ranging from personal electronics gadgets to heavy trucks. If we were to say that frequent extravaganza Expos are signs of the business development in a country, we can says that economy in Myanmar is developing progressively.
Let's have a look into Expo!
Huge billboards were attracting audiences to the expos on both sides of entrance.
The day I went there is full moon day of Thadin Kyut, and the timing also early in the noon, thus there was less crowded than normal.
OEM products of cold storage products at affordable price especially for local users.
Myanmar Amazing Expo 2011 covers personal electronic gadgets to heavy motors.
Embroidery machine for dress making.
Electronics and home appliances were sold at discounted prices.

As I have written here, it is in the so called UN-predictable thing that when electricity will be black out in Yangon, Myanmar in the past. Most of us surprise that other countries, like Singapore has better advance notice systems on such thing. We did experience more efficient customer service standards when we were been in abroad.
Now, (I don’t believe this is first time announcement issued, however this is first time I ever read on newspaper). Today newspaper got the advance notices to customers of Ministry of Electricity No. (2). It said that there will be upgrading of equipments in sub-stations. It will happen in between 0800 hrs to 1500 hrs of 8th Oct 2011 (Saturday).
Though it is not the best performance in customer service standards, but we can said that they are improving their services. Hopefully, there will be progressively improving their customer services and one day, we can say that ours are the best not only in the regional but also all around the world.
It has been a long time waiting for this advertisement to come out, finally announcement for vacancies of Civil Servant for 2009 batch MBBS (usually called Posting for Medical Students) has came out. Yesterday, it was posted on Myanmar Ahlin and Mirror Newspapers of Myanmar. Unfortunately, the online newspapers didn't include these pages of announcement. Thus, I did scan the page on newspaper and uploaded it over here. As of this month is nearly end of raining season in Myanmar and several country side townships were experiencing flash flood as of heavy rains, transportation to several country side towns were interrupted and not able to access to daily newspapers.
I hoped this will help you all to have a look and prepare to submit your necessary applications documents on time. The following documents were grabbed from online portal of Union Civil Service Board @ http://www.ucsb.gov.mm/, you all can reach details of interview here http://ucsb.imis.com.mm/ .Please take a note that you are required to submit application not later than 28th October 2011.
