Pascal Khoo Thwe > Quotes

“Remember what your grandfather said about the earth's being round at school and flat at home. He was a wise man and taught you what you need to know in Burma. It is the same in politics. Learn the arguments for socialism in the textbooks parrot them pass your exams. Never never argue. But keep within your own head and heart what you and everyone really knows that in the real world it is a system of incompetence and corruption and a project for ruining the country.”
― Pascal Khoo Thwe, From the Land of Green Ghosts: A Burmese Odyssey
