In reference, I would like to share my short speech I wrote for the junior students, in order to provide an example for them to write their own:
Rudyard Kipling once wrote: “This is
Burma, and it will be quite unlike any land you know about”. I believe this is as true now as it was
in 1898. Before I first visited
Myanmar, I had travelled to many countries throughout Asia,
including Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia, China, Thailand, India and Sri Lanka.
But no other country was like Myanmar.
Myanmar captured my heart. I was
charmed by the Burmese people. Locals treated me with warmth and kindness.
Children on the street waved to me. Their parents smiled at me. Teenagers
wanted to take a photo with me. One day,
when I was walking in the hot sun, a generous woman stopped me. She painted
my face with ‘thanaka’ so that I would not get sunburnt.
In my opinion,
Myanmar is a magical place. What makes
it so unique and enchanting is its people. Burmese people are gentle,
caring, wholehearted and compassionate. They made me feel welcome in their
country. My hope for Myanmar is that
it will remain as beautiful as it is today.
