My vision for Yangon ( Rangoon ) my city!

Rangoon the pearl of South East Asia in British days

Rangoon a multicultural city with mosques, churches pagodas and monastries

Rangoon a vice city since British days with clubs, bars, race tract and sports arena

Lets rebuild Rangoon ( Yangon ) today

The colonial buildings shall be privatized to have some owners with care and love of its glory

Now that the government offices inside had moved to Nay Pyi Daw ( thank you! )

Gone their sullen people and tons of papers ( I do not miss them )

Hotels, Casinos, Stores, nightclubs and Restaurants shall sprung up

For tourists to enjoy the colonial elegance and history

Revitalize the race tract

Let Aung San stadium has soccer clubs

Let men play and watch the real game

Instead of watching TV games and gambling on Euro football

River side shall have shops and bars

The real river unlike the small Singapore river ( Ha Ha)

Singapore and Vietnam are building casinos

to lure the prosperous Chinese

We are not too late to compete

Give back our city its Vibe

and go for Vice!

We have our Shwedagon to balance the act

and plenty monasteries as education centers plus our computer tech

Yangon still surpass Bangkok

in its beautiful layout and its lakes

Yangon shall prepare to Welcome aid workers this week

Singaporeans shall be happy for their Hotels!

To be able to afford the high price energy bills!

they will survive as their worst times will be over!

So lets revitalize Yangon today

Have a vision and positiveness

take this opportunity to change the nation!

Starting with its famous city!


with love for my city where I was born and raised!

Me? I'm the romantic kind who prefer to be by the side of loved ones at a quiet Kandawgyi Lake, enjoying the ancient culture of days gone by (I must be missing my royal days in a previous birth here, haha). May the Karaweik sing again!
