Why did the capital of Myanmar move inward?
There are different opinions on the reasons why Myanmar moved its capital. There are different opinions: the "threat theory" holds that Myanmar's move to the capital is a feeling of foreign military threats; "Cybernetics" holds that the Burmese government moved northward to solve the control problem in the northern minority areas; "Feng Shui Theory" holds that Myanmar's move to the capital follows the arrangement of celestial phenomena. BEIJING, Beijing165438+1October 8 According to Agence France-Presse, the Myanmar government decided to move its administrative capital from Yangon to a secret facility in a mountainous area, which was both shocking and puzzling. Observers want to know why the Burmese government has chosen to become more self-enclosed. "That place is far from civilization," said Lun, a spokesman for Myanmar's opposition National League for Democracy, referring to government facilities outside Binmana, 320km north of Yangon. I don't know why they moved. "Some people say that Burma's generals are worried about the American invasion. Others think that maybe they are following the instructions of astrologers, or they want to leave their mark on the history of Myanmar. Most people think that moving the government and army from Yangon to a secret camp in the mountain jungle is due to military strategic considerations. Poggi, chairman of the Myanmar Association for Aid to Political Prisoners, who is currently in exile in Thailand, said: "According to unofficial information, they are trying to organize soldiers to prevent American intervention or invasion. They knew that the United States would not invade. But they played tricks on soldiers and supporters to gain their support. Earlier, there were rumors that after the US invaded Iraq, the Myanmar government was worried about being invaded. Yangon is a coastal city and an easy target, while Binmana is located in the jungle and mountainous area, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. However, some people think that there may be another reason, which is related to the belief in astrology of Myanmar government leaders. Maung Mint, secretary of Myanmar Media Association in exile, said, "Maybe they got some instructions from astrologers", so they decided to move the capital. During the Japanese occupation, Binmana was the military headquarters of Myanmar's independent leader General Aung San, the leader of the National League for Democracy and the father of Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi. General Kyaw Shan, Myanmar's Minister of Information, said that the government moved the capital to Binmana because it is located on major roads and railways and can easily reach all parts of the country. According to diplomatic sources, even if government ministries and military headquarters move to Binmana, a liaison office will be set up in Yangon. The Myanmar government stated that embassies and international organizations do not have to move. Thai Foreign Minister Kantati said that Thailand only learned the news of Myanmar's move to the capital from news reports. He said: "I'm not sure if this is permanent. I think we will find out the facts soon. " A senior official of Myanmar's Ministry of Interior said that only 70% of government facilities with a diameter of 60 kilometers have been completed. He said: "People who move here need time to get familiar with this place. It may take a year. "
