Yangon
The news from Myanmar is shocking and unimaginable. This documentary resulted from a visit by Chris Haydon to Yangon, the capital, a couple of years ago and features the local YMCA and its remarkable director, Mr Sonny. The BBC's famous Reithian maxim is shown still adorning the walls of Yangon's main TV studio building. Good to know that our proud heritage survives the military regime. As ever, an oppressed and impoverished people shine with human qualities in extraordinary adversity.
