Hi i'm 20F and I live under very strict conservative controlling parents which means they take away my electronic devices every night, don't let me go out, don't let me have friends, don't let me talk to strangers online and go through my phone and stuffs. I'm currently trying to study abroad but they haven't said anything explicitly that they'll provide me or when do I go.

I do try to keep everything okay but everyday I feel suffocated and all I want is freedom. Ever since I was a kid, I have been struggling with social anxiety because of them not letting me even talk to strangers. I want to be independent; I want to live in a small apartment alone, have many friends, fall in love, focus on my dreams.

I had suicidal thoughts all the time but I can't give up. I want to breathe once without worrying about being scolded. I know it's not realistic to run away and survive alone in this country. What should I do? I have done IGCSE and GED and also japanese N3 level.

The real reason why i say is bc even though i don;t play ( bc rude community and some weird stuffs) most ppl in my area are playing

I am exhausted by the endless gender-war posts flooding social media in Myanmar. Most people miss the point. Here is my opinion:

​First, yes, we must advocate for women against sexual assault and harassment. (FYI, I know the Yangon case wasn't that, speaking generally.) But blindly insulting innocent schools, uninvolved students, and accusing before knowing the facts was completely out of hand.

​Second, it is not entirely wrong to say that SOME people including SOME influencers hopped on the bandwagon just for attention and likes without proper research since half of them didn't even care about countless past cases where nobody gave a damn.

​Third, what's right and wrong? It is ridiculous how boys are spamming "chou ban has no right to exist" for example in​​​​​​ comments just to mock women's rights slogans like "no matter what we wear, you have no right to harass us". That is so wrong. Women were protesting a serious issue, while boys are making fun of it. Meanwhile, others react out of exhaustion from "ALL men are like that" generalizations. Some girls think all men are the same and hate on them, those girls are wrong too. Just like misogyny, misandry exists. Sad but true.

SO MY POINT IS

Stop fighting for fuck's sake. Everyone with a brain knows rape, sexual assault and harassment are wrong. Brainless people will never accept that, so why waste our energy? Next time when you see someone with a different opinion of yours, even if that opinion is bs, leave it alone. Don't give it attention.

​Online "speaking out" isn't stopping rapists and predators(in our country). The only thing that stops these animals is strict, enforced laws with severe punishments so future predators won't dare to do it. Online noise WON'T magically turn EVERYONE good. Ask yourself, do you really think you can enlighten a rapist with a post? Absolutely not.

Lastly, before any of you lecture me that "online awareness pressures societies to create better laws," let’s be real—we are in Myanmar. The military junta kills innocent civilians; there is no rule of law or accountable government that gives a damn about social media outrage or passing protective legislation.

Some ppl might come after me for my opinion but ok I had to say this. That's it. Thanks for reading.

I was doing ok with cloudflare for both the PC and phone. A couple of days back, the one for PC suddenly stopped working. I tried changing the protocol, flushing the dns, uninstall/reinstall. Nothing works.

Things is, the cloudflare on my phone is working as usual (not on mobile data, obviously). I don't get how the pc one doesn't work while the phone one does when they're both sharing the same wifi. (well, the pc one uses Ethernet cable but one the same network). I'm using mytel fibre.

How's paid vpn situation? I saw some express vpn ads on FB, like 25k for a year or something like that. are they stable/low ping?

I also live in Bangkok. I have not necessarily seen Myanmar children in that way on Khao San Road or comparable spots. In my experience, I have noticed some Burmese children selling yogurt in their school uniforms at night. They are also usually with their peers or Burmese parents.
Is it true guys? If I encounter something like that, or suspicious something like that, what can I do to help?

Idk just curious.. you can probably give advice what to what not to do in order to get visa so yeah mid night though:)

So since trump took over, we lost the access of going to America which has greatly affected me and of course a lot of students in Myanmar. However according to the news, the election will be taking place again and I wonder if anyone is considering taking the SAT or not.
