Myanmar education and Youth





When I passed matriculation, I didn't know what I should do for my future. Myanmar education system didn't teach me about life. Since I was grade 1, I have felt that I haven't got real education. Although I passed primary school, middle school and high school, I didn't know the meaning of education. I'm a  university student but I had no critical thinking and no reality . But now l am studying at + Change Maker (Youth Development school) and this school teach me critical thinking and about life.So I can imagine a little about my future life and I can plan for my future. But Some of my friends from university, they are almost graduated but they  still feel shy and no confident to touch with outside world.Whenever I ask them what they will do after university and their future plans, they have no answer. We are unhappy with our education.I don't know exactly today's education for kids. But some of my age youth are losing their way and their goal because of our childhood education. Today I heard that there is sex education in state school. I think that it will be helpful for their future. I like that today's education of Myanmar. But for us, we didn't get real education. Some of university learning are still no useful for life. I am worried for youth of today.

Myanmar government is shutting down internet in Rakhine State. Many Rakhine public are staying together in refugee camps. They have no internet. So they can't know about the world related with CONVID-19. They don't know CONVID-19 know how to protect this virus.
