What happens when a vacuum-sealed, strictly-controlled nation loosens up, opens its doors and ushers in aggressive international businesses, hungry global developers and hoards of curious tourists? Can Myanmar’s sensitive culture, fragile & beautiful heritage and infant democracy cope with this strange, invasive and transformative surge? It’s too early to tell. But it turns out some enterprising locals aren’t just standing by waiting for change. They’re taking their opportunities now and they include a power-pop princess with world charts in her sights and a former US based Google exec who’s returned home to build a business. Myanmar’s even letting in nosey reporters so we sent our own Sally Sara to witness this historic collision of past, present and future.
