I shall be in Yangon again in early Oct 2014. And I shall extend my my trip if there are members wanting to visit Yangon. The dates are:
- IN Fri 03 Oct 2014 – you have to arrive on or before 3 Oct, although 3 Oct will be spent in Yangon.
- OUT Mon 06 Oct 2014 – You can leave anytime on or after 06 Oct 2014.
Note: 06 Oct is a public holiday. We are likely to stay in the Chinatown area because the hotels are cheaper, and a few were newly rennovated. The hotels will have internet WIFI, although I cannot guarantee the WIFI is stable. Chinatown is vibrant, full of food and busy from morning 5am to at night 9pm. Check with your friends who have joined me to Yangon before. Participants will have the option to book their own hotels, and these can be organised together as a package by the travel company which we use during our last trip.
USD or Kyatts are accepted in Yangon. Credit cards are very very very limited in use, and incur surcharges. Money exchange difficult to find, rates at hotel are unattractive. Bring USD, that’s for first timers.
Please contact or send your queries only via this Post. I shall bring some brochures on Yangon. You may have a look at my fleamart stand on Sat 6 Oct.
