China and Myanmar are linked by mountains and rivers and border, and not only have close historical and cultural relations, but also have a long-standing and profound friendship between the two peoples.

Zhou Sen said goodbye to Lao Liang and took Liu Dazhuang to Myanmar, the next country along the "Belt and Road".

Myanmar is a country in Southeast Asia and a member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, bordered by the Andaman Sea to the southwest, India and Bangladesh to the northwest, China to the northeast, Thailand and Laos to the southeast, and Naypyidaw as its capital.

"Myanmar is also a neighbor of ours, very close to China, and also very close to Thailand and Laos, so it makes sense for us to go to Myanmar!" Zhou Sen said.

Liu Dazhuang said: "Yes, Lao Zhou, follow you, I am also stained, I think it is still very meaningful to go to Southeast Asian countries to shoot some documentaries about the 'Belt and Road'." ”

Zhou Sen smiled, "Dean Zhang is also very good, or he is thoughtful, he has contacted us all in advance, and he has already contacted the people who came to pick up the airport in Myanmar!"

Liu Dazhuang nodded, "Dean Zhang is really good, with him, we are all relieved!"

"Take a good rest, we will rest on the plane seat for a while, and when we get to the airport, someone will come to pick us up, and we will run around non-stop again, the interview is still very hard, and it is not easy to do this job!"

Liu Dazhuang smiled, "Yes, this work is still very hard, I also have a deep experience, but it is still very fulfilling, our Laos tour program has been filmed, I have sent it back to China, edited and produced it for my colleagues, and it will soon be broadcast in China, and Dean Zhang and they will soon be able to see our program." ”

Zhou Sen nodded, "It's hard work!"

When the plane landed, Zhou Sen woke up Liu Dazhuang, carried his luggage, and got off the plane.

After seeing Zhou Sen, Thayer saluted, Zhou Sen also nodded and smiled, and everyone introduced their identities to each other.

Zhou Sen shook hands with Thayer, "Dean Zhang said that you came to pick you up, I'm really happy to see you!"

Thayer also smiled, "I am an old acquaintance with Dean Zhang, Dean Zhang came to Myanmar, I have met Dean Zhang several times, he came to Myanmar for academic exchanges, I have always been responsible for reception, I also know Lao Liang who works in Laos, they are all old acquaintances, I heard that you came to ask for it, I have been ready for a long time!"

Zhou Sen smiled, "That's really good, I'll ask you to be our tour guide next!"

"No problem, let's go, I've arranged the pick-up vehicle, let's go while introducing the customs of Myanmar!"

Thayer was very welcoming, asked the staff to help carry the suitcase, and then led everyone outside.

"Everyone has just come to Myanmar and is not very familiar with Myanmar, so let me introduce it first!"

Myanmar is an ancient civilization with a long history, has experienced a lot of history and ups and downs, Myanmar is one of the least developed countries in the world, mainly agriculture, the population engaged in agriculture is very large, agricultural products are rice, wheat, sugarcane and so on.

Liu Dazhuang asked: "Is Myanmar similar to Laos?"

Thayer nodded, "Myanmar is still a little similar to Laos, but there are also different differences, the economy is not developed, it cannot be compared with Thailand, Singapore, and Brunei, but it also has the advantages of Myanmar!"

Myanmar borders India and Bangladesh to the west, the Andaman Sea to the south, and the Bay of Bengal to the southwest.

The terrain is high in the north and low in the south, surrounded by mountains in the north, west and east, which is also similar to Laos, Laos is also a lot of mountainous areas, the geographical location determines the development of a country, the north of Myanmar is a high mountainous area, the west has the Naga hills and the Rakhine Mountains, the east is the Shan State Plateau, the elevation of the Kakabo Peak near the Chinese border is also very high, it is the highest peak in Myanmar, and the alluvial plain of the Irrawaddy River is between the western mountains and the eastern plateau, and the terrain is low and flat.

"When we are free, I will take everyone to see the mountains of Myanmar, climb the mountains, and see the scenery on the mountains, the scenery is still very good!"

Zhou Sen said: "Tell us about the climate in Myanmar, is the climate here similar to Laos?"

Thayer nodded, "Myanmar also belongs to the tropical monsoon climate, most of Myanmar is south of the Tropic of Cancer, which is tropical, and a small part is north of the Tropic of Cancer, which is subtropical. ”

"The mountains and plateaus that surround Myanmar to the east, north and west are like barriers, blocking the cold air from the Asian continent in winter, while in the south, because there are no mountain ranges, the warm and humid air flow from the Indian Ocean can be unimpeded, Myanmar has a good ecological environment and few natural disasters. ”

"That is, with these natural environments, the ecological environment of Myanmar is still relatively good, the natural scenery is very good, and the number of people who come to Myanmar to travel is gradually increasing. ”

"Myanmar has abundant rainfall, and most of the rainfall is concentrated in the summer when the southwest monsoon prevails, which is still relatively hot, and Southeast Asia is relatively hot, because it is closer to the equator. ”

Zhou Sen asked, "Are there any mineral deposits in Myanmar?"

"Myanmar is rich in mineral resources, including oil, natural gas, tungsten, tin, lead, silver, nickel, antimony, gold, iron, chromium, jade, etc. ”

"Oil is one of Myanmar's most important economic resources, and it is distributed in the middle and lower reaches of the Irrawaddy River in Ringanqiang, Xiaobu, Xingu, Ringaja, Rangyo, Minbu, Pranyong, Yodaya, Dandai, Bidaobin, Ringama, Yingdao, Yanbeicho and the southern islands of Sittwe. ”

"Non-ferrous metals such as gold, silver, copper, lead, zinc, tin, tungsten and manganese in Myanmar are widely distributed from the northern part of Kachin State to Maliwin in the south of Tanintharyi, among which gold is distributed in Mako and Shadusai in Kachin State, near Ban Mao in Sagaing Province and in the areas of Monmi and Gelu in Shan State. ”

"Silver-lead co-occurrence ore is found in southeastern Kachin State and along the Nmekai River, in Boton in Shan State, in Buri and Kyaukqi in Mandalay Province, in Kayin State in Korutu and Dichaya, and in Tanintharyi Province in Dawei. ”

"Tin-tungsten mixed ore is distributed in Taunggyi, Kayah State, Kayin State Thongtong, Mawlamyine and Dawei and Mergui in Tanintharyi Province. ”

"Zinc and manganese are found in the southern part of Shan State, antimony is found in the northwest, north and east of Shan State, Kayah State, Kayin State and the Shan State is a multi-metal mining area with gold, silver, red copper, lead, zinc and antimony. ”

"Iron is found in the upper reaches of the Nme Khai River, northwestern Shan State, eastern Mandalay, and coal is not abundant in Myanmar, but it is found in Dawei, Inti, Shwe Lam, Namdu in Shan State, Gelu, some areas in Kachin State, east of Mandalay, Sittwe in Rakhine State and Mergui in Tanintharyi. ”

"So Myanmar's mineral resources are still quite rich, and in recent years, we have cooperated with many enterprises to exploit them, and these resources are also one of Myanmar's important economic incomes, which is very important!"
