The groom drought in Burma
As we all know, the dire of social, economy and human rights situation in Burma is leading the people to the inferno under the military dominant rule in Burma. Let’s focus the social issue for a moment. Nowadays, the young ladies and all the women in general in Burma are having a hard time to look for their soul mates. After the outrageous military coup in 1988, most young men had to leave their families to look for the jobs in order to support their families.Believe it or not, most men from Burma end up with the following places or categories today.
Thailand
Malaysia
The refugees camps in Thailand
China and India borders
The military camps
The prisons
Ethnic minority groups,
Becoming the Buddhist Monks (staggering! 500,000)
Dead in the civil wars
Drugs and alcohol addicts due to the depressions and others
Therefore, it is really difficult for the women to pick someone to get married. Remember the story about Maung Min Min Soe ended up marrying two women at a time? No one in our history could ever marry two women at a time unless you are filthy rich.
In 1996, we had broadly discussed such issue at the ABSDF reunion conference. No solution did come up though. In 2010, during the media conference in Chiang Mai, Ko Moe Thee Zun had discussed this sort of social issue, but the community was not yet ready for such complicated issue then. Obviously, the groom drought has threatening in the ethnic areas and elsewhere as well.
The other existing problem is the Thailand based NGOs that would like to maintain the population control in line with the growing global population. Their real intention is based on the eradication of poverty in Burma, without regarding the actual responsible force like the USDP government itself. By ignoring the sitting elephant in the room, their good deed to eliminate the poverty in Burma would not just delay their efforts but getting even worse for our society as a whole. None of us dares to explore the better future of Burma for another ten yeas or so if we keep going this way for sure.
Remember this, the poverty and social crisis facing Burma today is not because of the growing population, but because of the military dominant rule.

I'd recommend that just wait and see twenty plus years. Here we go again.
