The problem is that the people are too many there, and the state cannot offer them all jobs, in order to have a decent life. So, they probably officially encourage them to chew those leaves…Laziness could be in their culture: if they have seen their parents just sitting on a chair in the shadows, they will do the same. It is a great need of EDUCATION, there as here (but for different reasons). People are not born good or bad, they have to be educated. If a state does not invest in education… On the other side, Burma is a state that very recently came out from the state of dictatorship (if it really does), many things have to be changed there. It’s good that blogger like you present the reality as it is, not alocating attributes like “exotic”, “unspoled”, “original”, etc. Congratulation for your article and the courage to present a less pleasant aspect of day to day life in Burma.
