It’s a shame Myanmar is not a fairly closed country with an oppressive regime. It’s got to be an incredible place to experience!

I meant IS a fairly closed country with an oppressive regime…tired! If I could pick 2 countries in the world to do regime change for the sake of travel enjoyment for the rest of the world, Myanmar and Iran would be my 2.
