Before the era of colonisation, India and China were "in". There are two sacred Hindu holy sites that are located in China and one of China's greatest classical novels, "Journey To The West" is about travelling to India to obtain Buddhist sutras.

In my opinion, India's best option is to align itself with China by fixing that border dispute. The reality of the situation is that both are neighbours and you know very well the US will not be interested in your country growing. They didn't contain China and now they're upset, they aren't going to repeat the same mistake with India. I thought y'all woke up after that disaster involving Adani last year.

China only cares when it fits its interests. China did not care one bit in the past when Myanmar's ethnic minorities were suffering. Now that it's affecting China's interests in the Bay of Bengal, China is supporting some of the anti-junta groups but before that, China was supporting the junta. No country cares about Myanmar at the most basic level and China will be the last to show actual interest.

Malay Muslims and Indonesian Muslims will care more about a conflict happening on the other side of the world than care about a conflict happening in their own neighbourhood that could have ripple effect repercussions for the rest of Southeast Asia. You can see where their priorities and loyalties lie. Religion is the opiate of the masses.

The fact is that reality favours Guyana.

North Korea faces a low fertility rate too. Kim Jong Un is getting so scared now that he even said it's a North Korean woman's patriotic duty to have a baby.

East Asia how? The migrant workers and other expats mostly come from Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia, Nepal and Myanmar - all of which are in South and Southeast Asia.

@alexandercain8904 Idk what the other user said about the Chinese lucky number of 8, that's not related to Myanmar but what the other user said about it being named after August 8, 1988 (8/8/88) is correct.

Yeah temporary migrants who will work but then eventually return home and help their own countries who will be replaced by new temporary migrants. It sounds like a good idea.

Aung San Suu Kyi had no real power at that time. If it helps you, there is now a Rohingya politician that has been elected to Aung San Suu Kyi's political party (NUG).

@Leiska86 That entire region was known by different names by the people living in the region now known as India such as "Bharat" by the natives, "Hindustan" by the Persians, "Tenjiku" by the Japanese and "Tianzhu" by the Chinese. It may not correlate directly to modern India but the region was united at various times by different empires like the Mauryan Empire.

Okay then, they can deal with their disappearance. Then all of the Asian countries that will export their labour can keep them to develop their own countries.

@serebii666 Their entire dispute is the result of colonialism, it doesn't change the fact that their pre-colonial cross-cultural history is still evident to this day with Hindu holy sites found across the border in modern China. China and India can come to a compromise in the same way Tajikistan and China or Myanmar and China were able to fix their border dispute many decades ago. Idk why so many people think they can't fix it. If you can sit there and genuinely believe that the US will allow another country to emerge that can compete with them then you're living in a bubble. The US is not interested in a high income India with such a huge population to sway world politics, like they're already doing. Did you not see how Euro-America reacted when India refused to join the West and support Ukraine at the expense of their historic relationship with Russia? The US government literally mulled sanctioning India. You think they won't do that in the future? India is only of interest to the US because of China. India is what Saudi Arabia or Pakistan are to the War of Terror. Wake up and realise that nobody is actually fond of India. I see so many anti-India posts all over Twitter and TikTok and comment sections filled with extreme hate like I've never seen before any country. The crazy thing about all of this is that it's not just Western conservatives but Western liberals who are espousing this hate. and yet India is controlled by a hard-line leader called Modi and his legion of nationalist followers mirror the wumao that used to be everywhere on international social media. Contagion containment you say? and the Indians are agreeing with you on this.

@tankman20064 Burmese people care. Non-Rohingya Burmese have become very supportive of Rohingyas after the military takeover. Burmese people aren't heartless like chin ying loong.
3
@matheuss886 Don't worry, they're not letting in your kind. They prefer other Asians like those from Vietnam, Nepal, Philippines, Indonesia and Myanmar.
2
@westrim That's not related at all with this. 8 being a lucky number only applies to East Asian countries and ethnic Chinese communities in Southeast Asia. Myanmar is an Indospheric (Indian culturally-influenced) country which practices Theravada Buddhism, it has more in common with neighbours like Thailand and India than with the Sinic countries of East Asia.
2
and even when that happens, the Indonesian Muslims will be caring more about what's happening in the Middle East then in their own region of the world.
2
@tanjongmalim6869 You're absolutely correct, they don't have their priorities straight and the issues that happen in Southeast Asia could have ripple effect repercussions that affect Indonesia but they still don't care. If Myanmar breaks up that's going to have consequences for the rest of the region, possibly instability, will these new nations be able to manage on their own are they going to be relying on foreign aid from ASEAN, China, India,, Japan? Also yes, there are many Islamic-related situations in Asia but they're more worried about something happening on the other side of the world. It's fine to care about other issues in the world but it's strange how they haven't cared one bit about what's happening with Asian Muslim groups.
2
The West has nothing to gain in the Myanmar conflict, that's why they're not there. The biggest players in Myanmar are all Asian countries (China, India, Japan, Singapore). The West has no influence in the country. Due to its isolation for decades, it still remains very much within the fold of a bygone era that is purely very much Asian - much like North Korea to the north. Myanmar was once the "North Korea of Southeast Asia".
2
@rainboworiental9521 Yeah I suppose it's due to the Wa State fascination with China. So adjacency to Chinese culture is preferred rather than association with Bamar majority of Myanmar. Also, there are Wa people found natively in Yunnan in China, they are one of the officially recognised ethnic groups of China.
2
One of the largest foreign groups in Japan are Nepalese and most of the Nepalese in Japan look similar to Indians. Part of the Nepalese population in Japan look East Asian. Virtually all of Japan's migrant workers come from other Asian countries - particularly in South and Southeast Asia where most people don't look Japanese, they don't strike special visa deals with countries outside of Asia. The furthest west, they'll ever go is Central Asia most likely. Not everything is about looks, it's about culture. A Burmese Buddhist with brown skin is viewed more favourably than someone who's not and I say this because there was a video about a Japanese company going around Asia to find aged care workers and they settled on Burmese people because they were and I quote "calm like the Japanese" and "devout Buddhists".
2
These are migrant workers, they aren't going to Japan to permanently settle in the country. People seem to be very confuse and assume these people will settle in the country permanently. No, it's temporary migration on special work visas given to select Asian nationalities.
2
@Harz604 Nepalese constitute the sixth largest foreign group in Japan with a total population of 125,798. Conversely, there are 291,066 Filipinos in Japan, 83, 169 Indonesians in Japan and 54, 618 Thais in Japan per data from 2022. The Chinese population stands at 744,551, Vietnamese at 476,346 and Korean at 412,340.
2
@Harz604 You need to do more research. Japan doesn't let people migrate and bring their whole families with them. Japan creates special working visa deals with select Asian nations like Vietnam, Nepal, Philippines and Indonesia for example. Only the workers can enter Japan with these visas an they aren't given the chance to permanently settle in the country. They're temporary.
2
@Harz604 Well they can't be permanent residents because the policy on PR in Japan is very strict. There has been a long history of migrant workers going to Japan since the1980s, none of them have been allowed to stay. So it's all good.
2
 @MiguelDLewis Do you mean "Buddhist-majority countries"?
2
Migrant workers can't settle permanently in Japan, they are temporary migrants who will eventually return. What a horrible thing to say. Is this what's on your mind all the time? Is it because you do that sort of stuff too to the women in your life? The migrant workers in Japan come from other parts of Asia such as Vietnam, Nepal, Myanmar and Philippines. Calm down.
2
China will back whichever side that will allow its ambitions to not be hindered. That is why China has oscillated between supporting the junta and some of the anti-junta groups. China will NEVER allow the conflict in Myanmar to spill over into its Yunnan province, a province which has traditionally been porous as the province is home to thousands and thousands of Burmese traders who migrate back and forth who are engaged in the jade trade, especially in cities like Ruili where everything is a mix of Chinese and Burmese culture.

 @Leiska86 The point of the matter is that the people living on either side of the Himalayas did not have issues with each other until later.

@banukasilva6153 Bring men in and then the problems start. Enough already. Women >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> men. Society is a lot safer when there are more women than men. Japan should only accept women but that won't happen so it should be a lot more women than men.
2
@banukasilva6153 Stop bringing in men! Females>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> males
2
This is so far from the truth. It's actually the Tatmadaw vs everybody else. This is why ordinary Burmese people support the Rohingyas because they know how evil the Tatmadaw is.
2
What democratically elected government? Aung San Suu Kyi's political party as of now has its first ever Rohingya minister. The Tatmadaw is responsible for the Rohingya genocide and btw, there are many Rohingyas who are Christians and Hindus (sure they were treated better than their Muslim brethren but they still were driven out of the country due to violence).
2
The Tatmadaw is responsible for the Rohingya genocide.
2
Also for context regarding Singapore, Singapore's fertility rate stands at 0.97 and they favour Malaysians, Chinese, Indonesians and Indians because they are ethnically the same as the local Singaporean population but even though they prefer them, it's really really hard to get PR in Singapore and a lot of Singaporeans are against immigrants because even though they are ethnically the same, they are culturally different (except for the Malaysians).
2
@benktlofgren4710 It's not just the West, it's basically anybody that is out of touch with the world. Beyond the scope of governments, organisations and online geopolitical discussions and those interested in these issues, are any lay people online talking about the Myanmar civil war at this moment? I've seen more people online of different cultural origins argue about Selena Gomez wanting to take a social media break due to the backlash she has received from pro-Palestine people for saying she wants peace for innocent people on both sides of the Israel-Gaza conflict. Most people don't care. The sad reality is that everything has to be trendy to capture attention. The Myanmar Civil War is simply not trendy enough to catch people's attention the way other conflicts have at the moment and in the past.
2
Aung San Suu Kyi's party has elected its first ever Rohingya minister (his name is Aung Kyaw Moe and he is Rohingya). It's time this narrative that Aung San Suu Kyi is evil comes to an end. The military had all of the power and she was merely their mouth piece.
2
and what is thing about PC? How exactly is "Global South" the PC term for third world?
2
@12time12 Why is everything viewed through the lens of politics for certain people? The term is used by actual countries in the Global South like China, India, South Africa and Brazil in which this binary left-right wing dichotomy is not so clear cut in how we understand economics.
2
Where are you from?
1
Yeah that's the sad thing. Indonesian Muslims will care more about a conflict happening on the other side of the world than what's happening to a fellow Southeast Asian nation.

@matheuss886 This video is about the dire need to bring in workers, especially migrant workers, to industries that need staff like aged care. Japan prefers to accept other Asians and that's why they launch special working visas deals with certain Asian countries. In a news report on Channel News Asia, a Japanese employer said he and his people went around Asia to find the most compatible nationality for his company and they decided upon Burmese because they were the most similar to the Japanese in culture and I quote "they are calm like the Japanese" and "many are devout Buddhists".
1
@matheuss886 Well migrant workers and expats are not allowed to permanently live in Japan, so you don't have to worry about that. Additionally, female migration should be encouraged over male migration. Society is safer with more females than men. Yes, I said what I said because that's the truth and I say that as a male.
1
Learn how to spell "migration" properly.

@dulio12385 India is not going to interfere, I really don't think so. India is not going to suffer from a bypass of the Malacca Strait (Singapore and Malaysia will suffer so any pushback might come from them). Asian countries hate each other but the reality is that they prefer to mind their own business. Most of them are signatories of the Non-Aligned Movement. India could have easily criticised China during its Hong Kong protests in 2019, like the West did, but it remained silent, as did the rest of Asia - even going as far as to abstain from voting to condemn China in 2019 at the UN. China and India could've easily demanded their soldiers use guns at their disputed border but they chose not to, instead using clubs like we're in the ancient days. The Tatmadaw that rules Myanmar has close ties to China, India and Japan - all three countries benefit from Tatmadaw rule in some way. That's why all three countries have said nothing and abstain at any attempt to condemn Myanmar at the UN (such as when the Rohingya genocide was happening).

You seem to be talking about Wa State but Wa people mostly practice Theravada Buddhism and speak the Wa language (an Austroasiatic language) unless you're talking about another region of Myanmar.

@rainboworiental9521 It says that Bao Youxiang is of Wa origin and he looks Wa too. Han Chinese are not that tanned.

@missingno88 How is that a stereotype?
1
Well Japan doesn't accept refugees and most refugee applicants to Japan come from other Asian countries that have no conflicts.
1
@MiguelDLewis Hello again. 😊 Ah I see, yes I understand what you're talking about but I don't think they were refugees. From what I remember they were selected by that Japanese employer to come work in Japan and he said that he preferred them because they were like the Japanese in that they were calm and devout Buddhists. I don't think they're allowed to stay permanently in Japan though. As this video explained, pathway to citizenship is very strict.
1
@MiguelDLewis Seek refuge and applying as a refugee are two different things. Those workers did not go to Japan as refugees, if that was the case then they would've been granted refugee status. They didn't. Learn the difference between the two.
1
@MiguelDLewis There are thousands of Russians and Ukrainians living across tropical Asia in Sri Lanka, Thailand, Vietnam and Bali. They have been given extended visas to escape the war or the draft but they are not refugees. This is the same case in regards to those Burmese workers. They are not refugees. The real refugees from Myanmar are the ones living in refugee camps in India, Bangladesh, Thailand and China along the Myanmar border.
1
Japan prefers Vietnamese, Filipinos, Nepalese, Burmese, Indonesians and other Asians, including many who are brown skinned. They don't want white people who are culturally incompatible with Japanese culture. So don't say "maybe white people", it's not "maybe", it's "never".

China has had incentives to support the Tatmadaw in the past and they did but due to their ambitions in the nation, it is better for them to support the rebels so as to get access to the Indian Ocean.

There are Japanese gods that derive from Hindu gods. Stop the pearl clutching. Nobody goes to Japan to work and then demands a place of worship. Plenty of Nepalese Hindus in Japan, you don't see them making a scene.

@wanderingson weebs stop obsessing over Japan for 1 second challenge impossible

@wanderingson It actually does because you're coping so hard when 99% of migrant workers in Japan come from other Asian countries.

@wanderingson Look at your initial comment

Japan has been accepting people from South Asia since the 1980s, especially Nepalese. Idk what you're talking about Banuka.
1
@banukasilva6153 Well maybe you should've voted in intelligent leaders and then your country wouldn't have gone through an economic crisis that led to all of your people moving to other countries, including the unsavoury individuals that went to Japan and causing problems there. I put the blame on the Sri Lankan leaders and the Sinhalese nationalists. I see way too many South Asians complain about their people but do nothing about it. You think you're better but it's just embarrassing. Fix your country.
1
@banukasilva6153 Also, accept women instead of men. All of these issues you speak about are because of men. Japan accepted migrant brides from Sri Lanka, Philippines, Thailand and China back in the 1980s to marry Japanese farmers and they all integrated and there was no issue. You bring men in and then the problems start. Enough already. It's ridiculous. Women >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> men. Society is a lot safer when there are more women than men. Japan should only accept women but that won't happen so it should be a lot more women than men.

Myanmar and Northeast India are not going to join China. 💀
1
They may follow Singapore and try to attract ethnic Koreans from China and Central Asia to permanently settle in the nation. South Korea once did that in the 1990s but idk if anybody would go. It's like Germany asking all German Americans to migrate to Germany, would any German Americans want to do that?
1
@carkawalakhatulistiwa I was just thinking because they've accepted ethnic Koreans from China in the past, they were quite prominent in the past. There are ethnic Koreans in Central Asia and there's a community of them in South Korea.

@tombo416 Nobody in East Asia is going to work in Japan, what are you talking about? The vast majority of migrant workers in Japan come from Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia, Nepal and Myanmar.
1
@tombo416 Why do people keep saying East Asians?? Japan is not going to be accepting people from East Asia. Nobody in other parts of East Asia want to go to Japan or need to go there, most of East Asia is developed. The people that will go to Japan are from various parts of South and Southeast Asia like Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia, Nepal and Myanmar.

@martingregory6993 Are you talking about the migrant workers from other African countries in South Africa?

Not an East Asian nation but Singapore's fertility rate of 0.97 is now lower than all East Asian nations except for South Korea.
1
@Admiral-General_Aladeen The total Latin America fertility rate is now below 2. India's dipped below 2 in 2022 if I remember correctly and their urban fertility (which is where the majority of the educated people of India live) stands at 1.6. The reality is the more educated one is, plus the greater the quality of life and female liberation means that fertility will naturally decline. Fertility rates, today, only exist at high rates among the poor and the ultrareligious.
1
@Leechenghee The other two main ethnic groups in Singapore: Malays and Indians have below level fertility too. The Indians have a 0.97 fertility rate. Do a little research.
1
@crooked52h Do you seriously think Vietnamese, Filipinos, Nepalese and Bhutanese are comparable to Scots, Brits and Irish? Filipinos are probably the most removed among these four groups in that they practice Christianity and much of their pre-colonial heritage is gone. Vietnamese are a Sinic-influenced people and culturally the closest to the Japanese. Nepalese and Bhutanese, on the other hand, are culturally closest to Indians and Tibetans. Just because they're all Asians, doesn't mean they are the same.
1
The people in Asia that can blend in Japan are mostly Chinese, Koreans, Vietnamese, ethnic Chinese in Southeast Asia and East Asian-passing Nepalese, that's it. Most of these migrant workers in Japan come from South and Southeast Asia and most of them do not look Japanese. This is why Japan selects specific nationalities who are culturally the most similar with similar beliefs like Buddhism to make it easier to assimilate.

@Vandelberger 2 is the standard though. There's absolutely nothing strange about having 2 kids, that's the actual number of kids a couple should be having: one to replace the mother and one to replace the father.
1
@Vandelberger but you inferred that having 2 kids as a poor person is a lot, that's not true. It's not just Western and "Far Eastern" countries anymore, this a phenomenon in most countries around the world except for most of Africa and parts of the Middle East, most people have kids later and most will only have 1.
