Description:
Stories of young people in Myanmar who struggle between their personal desires and their responsibilities to their families



Born and Bred in Myanmar is about the life and struggles of rural dwelling youths in Myanmar who, at an early age, have to work to supplement the household income or work alongside their parents to support the family.


They often find it difficult to even complete their basic formal education and thus find it hard to break the poverty cycle that their parents have been trapped in. The book portrays the lack of a support system from the government or even support from the family for young people who dream of pursuing a good education in life.


Some of the youths whose stories are told in this collection are- Khin Soe from Mon State, who drops out of primary school due to his father's deteriorating health and has to work as a carrier transporting the cargo of pilgrims making the trip to the top of the mountain to visit the famous holy pagoda; Moe Kyaw from Kyaukpadaung town, who volunteers to help his father who became ill working as a long distance bus driver, yet is never recognized for his help which is instead dismissed as a mere excuse for not wanting to go to school; Ma Nyo Pyar from Baw Lel village, who quits her studies to help her struggling mother in the paddy fields as well as look after her newborn sister, after turning down an offer from her mother's friend to put her through school.


Although these are stories of youths who lived in Myanmar in the 1980s, these stories still reflect the lives of youths in rural Myanmar today.

Best dog snack around.
These are my dog’s favorite snacks in the world. They are fresh, healthy, and the dog thinks she’s getting a naughty snack because they’re sweet! 😆

Good treats
Dogs love these! We have Chihuahuas and have to cut these in half for them as a while one is too large.

Healthy, Slightly Soft/Chewy Treat!
VERY pleased to have found these! Wanted something to offer Mookie as a "special treat" (a step up from Milkbones, but NOT long-lasting) that was healthy and easily digestible. He wasn't sure what to make of them at first... they're fairly soft and a little chewy, and they just smell like FRESH sweet potatoes -- not any fake meat or seasoning. Once he started chewing, however, he got very excited about the new treat, and now when he hears the bag being handled/opened, he comes running and does his little happy dance! We'll be keeping these on hand because the quality and reasonable price - combined with the LACK of tummy distress and his enjoyment - make this a "go-to" special reward.

A Nutritional Treat!
My German Shepherd loves this so much, I sometimes use it as a training treat! Sweet Potato is beneficial to dogs. The only complaint I have is the size consistency from bag to bag.

They used to be soft and moist but not now
These used to be one of my dogs’ favorite sweet potato treats, but they’ve gotten too hard and thick to cut for their morning snack or cut for their puzzle pieces. Because they’re not only too hard to cut, they’re also too hard for them to eat. Both, my Maltese and Shih Tzu love sweet potato treats, but they leave the dry ones behind. Since something made the Shih Tzu so sick that I had to spend a small fortune at the vet trying to make her better, she avoids all dry treats now and unfortunately that includes a lot of necessary nutrients. I hope these go back to being soft and moist the way they used to be!
