Project Moken in Burma - part 1

In December we travelled into the vast Mergui Archipelago off the coast of Burma (Myanmar). Here is part one of beautiful imagery from behind the scenes.

Intrepid Sailing Burma

Difficult to reach and well-off the tourist trails, sailing through these islands offers the chance to glimpse back to a time before the internet, phones, convenience stores and even denim existed, and experience the traditional clothing, local foods and martial arts of Burma’s virtually untouched island cultures. Be surprised by the wealth of pristine coastline, jungled forests and historical sights that span back to the Stone Age, and by the generous locals, who carry smiles that will warm travellers just as much as the ever-present sunshine. Perhaps a little sleepy from their solitude, these are the faces that will no doubt spark a tourist boom in these quiet islands – so get in quick before the crowds arrive.

South Myanmar

Much more at and with great pictures and videos
South Myanmar is the long tail all the way down from Yangon to Kawthaung or as the British called it Rangoon to Victoria Point.
British colonial time in Myanmar is long gone but the colonial British are still very virulent in the area by different means. One of them was Rudyard Kipling and the Burmese girl at Moulmein.
A great story, poem or whatever you want. Today there are people who try to reinterpreted all this stuff, but they fail because today is different and nobody can seriously backwards interpret what happen at that time in southern Myanmar.

Sea gypsies in troubled waters

On this episode of DVB's Doh Pyay Doh Myay [Our Land Our Region], the team swims with the Moken, Burma's sea gypsies.

The port of Kawthaung sits at Burma's southernmost point. It is an island paradise, and the gateway to the 800-island Mergui Archipelago.

The islands, and the aquamarine sea that separates them, is home to the Moken, boating nomads with a magic connection to the ocean.

But on shore, the sands have shifted. Modernity is now chafing at the lives of the sea gypsies.

Join the Roadshow team as they meet the Moken, some still sailing now-troubled waters, others making a new life as fish out of water on both sides of Burma's border with Thailand.

Mergui Archipelago - Myanmar

The Mergui Archipelago (also Myeik Archipelago or Myeik Kyunzu; Burmese: မြိတ်ကျွန်းစု) is an archipelago in far southern Myanmar (Burma) and is part of the Tanintharyi Region. It consists of more than 800 islands, varying in size from very small to hundreds of square kilometres, all lying in the Andaman Sea off the western shore of the Malay Peninsula near its landward (northern) end where it joins the rest of Indochina. Occasionally the islands are referred to as the Pashu Islands because the Malay inhabitants are locally called Pashu
