TODAY there is Myanmar Thingyan 2010 celebration at the Padang Square nearby City Hall MRT station. Just like previous year, again M1 keep it role as a main sponsor together with Myanmar Business Association as co-sponsor to make it realistic. I don't know it's necessarily need to find a local sponsor to do such a kind of cultural celebration. At least there would be some relief in searching of permission by authority to do it. On the other hand, the fund would be added by coordinating with local telecommunication company.
I yesterday went to peninsular plaza and saw a ticket counter there for today show. What a funny me and my wife? We don't know who are sitting at the counter even we are given a broucher by one celebrity. After doing some thing at the shop, we return and noticed that there are some crowd infront of the counter and they are queuing for a photograph with the female celebrity. Then we realized that she is the one inside the broucher. It's great chance to see them personally for some fans who are working in here for some reasons. I didn't buy any ticket as it's not my interest to go a crowd place.
I see it is opportunity for our country to promote its cultural rich as well as tourism. I read some occasion done by Thai embassy for their cultural promotion in this country. They are selling ticket to its own people and also foreigners who interest in their cultural with cheap price. They arranged to bring in their local celebrities and sport stars to entertain their people as well as other visitors. Their programme includes some dance, music, foods, sport event like muay thai boxing, etc. They are doing it within the compound of their embassy at orchard. I like the way they promote their traditional cultural. Of course I expect my embassy to do such a kind of effort done by our neighbour country.
It'll be easier to make it a big event with attraction if our embassy manage and organize this show bcz they have some previlege in bringing celebrities from local as well as performer from cultural minister. Why don't we have such activities while we are paying our tax to country regularly? They might request to all myanmar people to wear in traditional dress and attend Thingyan celebration. I am sure everybody will come and join if they do like that including me. I know how Myanmar citizen are united if it is needed and right time come.
Unfortunately now the main sponsor and cosponsor are from business companies and they'll make it for their advertisement to the benefit of their business rather than promoting our cultural show. For instance, they bring in some modern singer and dancing model to magnet audience here rather than a classical music artiste and traditional dancing coupe. No wonder they will make it to meet the demand of market. They will not consider about the deep of our cultural and it's bad thing for our country. The way they (our actor & actress) wore and their performance would be more likely with western style and the audience from other countries will misunderstand our country's cultural. It's not good for us in deed. On the other hand the music they sing are not originated from Myanmar and it'ld be embarrassing performance when other people hear it. It's obvious there would be at least local authorities such as police or other around the padang square to make it in order.
I am not going there and I just imagine what is going to be there. So my thought would be wrong and hopefully the show goes on the right way in respect of our traditional culture in long term. Also want my fellow citizen to behave with a polite manner in cheering them. Wish them all the best happy without any problem in celebrating our happy new year in oversea and find it worthy for their money. :D
