Chapter 529: Manila
Zhou Sen interviewed several Burmese girls who said that they envy Chinese girls, especially professional women in first-tier cities, who can be independent, can work their own, are financially independent, and have the ability to earn money no less than men of the same age.
Economic independence, in order to be independent, professional women in the family, no longer like women with babies at home, to see the face of the husband and mother-in-law, no status at home, Myanmar family patriarchy, always sacrifice the interests of women, to meet the rights of Myanmar men at home.
This is unfair, in the face of such a situation, Myanmar women have no choice, although with the progress of society, some Myanmar women can also come out to work, but compared with modern women in some developed areas, Myanmar women's social status is generally lower than that of Myanmar men.
This is also very helpless, and when it comes to this, Thayer is also very emotional.
"This status quo may continue for a long time, Myanmar is still far from modernization, there is still a certain gap between the economically developed regions, we have begun to work hard, I hope that the future of Myanmar will change, can gradually develop. ”
China and Myanmar have a long history of friendship and are friendly neighbors, and the construction of the Belt and Road Initiative is conducive to the development of Myanmar's infrastructure, high-speed rail, transportation, roads, surrounding infrastructure, medical and health care, trade and other aspects.
"In recent years, as a Burmese person, I still have deep feelings, since Myanmar joined the 'Belt and Road', there are still a lot of changes, much better than the original, the traffic has also changed, I hope it will get better and better in the future!"
Zhou Sen completed the trip to Myanmar, Liu Dazhuang also completed the filming of the show, the trip to Myanmar ended successfully, Zhou Sen said goodbye to Thayer, thanked him, Thayer sent everyone to the airport, and said goodbye reluctantly.
"Thank you very much Thayer for your hospitality, thanks to your care, we successfully completed the interview and inspection mission!"
"You're welcome, hello to Dean Zhang on my behalf, and welcome you to visit Myanmar next time!"
"Okay, thank you!"
Zhou Sen had a phone call with Dean Zhang, and Dean Zhang sent him to the Philippines for a field trip.
"We are no strangers to the country of the Philippines, and we have heard about it many times, but we are very happy to be able to visit it on the spot this time!"
"Yes, my impression of the Philippines may be that I have heard more about Filipino maids, and I used to see it often in TV dramas. ”
Zhou Sen smiled, "Maybe Chinese netizens' impression of the Philippines is still on the maid, the Philippines is not only famous for maids, but also others, let the audience and friends in front of the TV follow our lens to understand the Philippines." ”
"Okay, I'm looking forward to it too!"
Zhou Sen led the filming team and flew to the Philippines.
The Philippines is located in the southeast of Asia, separated by the Bass Strait in the north, Indonesia and Malaysia in the south and southwest by the Sulawesi Sea and the Balabac Strait, the South China Sea in the west, and the Pacific Ocean in the east.
Zhou Sen has almost traveled all over Southeast Asia, and this time he came to the Philippines to feel that the trip to the Philippines is also a new beginning.
"We media people always complete an interview and report, and when the task is over, we have to go to the next interview place, non-stop, and when we finish the interview in the Philippines and the trip to Southeast Asia, it will come to an end, and we can also give an account to Dean Zhang when we go back. ”
"Yes, it's not easy, Brother Zhou is still very hard, I also admire you, this time is really hard, I have been to many Southeast Asian countries, and after completing this task, we will return to China and have a good rest." ”
In order to explore the impact of the Silk Road on the world, we decided to make a series of programs to follow the footprints of the Silk Road and revisit the world, hoping that the audience and friends will follow our lens and learn more about the Philippines. ”
"Okay, I hope this is the beginning!" Liu Dazhuang nodded.
The plane landed steadily, everything went well, and the flight lady smiled and saluted and said goodbye to the passengers.
Zhou Sen took Liu Dazhuang off the plane together, and Dean Zhang had already arranged a new tour guide for us.
"Oh, great, Dean Zhang is really thoughtful, with the new tour guide, the trip to the Philippines will be very smooth!"
"Yes, the old dean is thoughtful, and it also saves us the trouble of running around unfamiliar with life!"
As the two were talking, a young man who looked to be in his 30s, wearing a very distinctive checkered short-sleeved shirt and a pair of black knee-length slacks, greeted him warmly: "Hello, Reporter Zhou!"
"You're Gonzalez, aren't you?"
"Yes, hello, it's a pleasure to meet you, Dean Zhang asked me to pick you up, I am responsible for picking you up, I have arranged the vehicle, please come with me!"
"Okay, then thank you!"
"You're welcome, Dean Zhang is my old teacher, I went to be an exchange student, I once went to China as an exchange student, Dean Zhang gave us a lesson, I still remember the old teacher's earnest teaching. ”
After a few pleasantries, everyone introduced each other, and then Gonzalez led everyone out.
"Let me introduce it to you, I'll take you to see the scenery of this city!"

The tropical monsoon climate has only two seasons a year, the annual temperature is about 28 °C, hot and humid from November to June, and the rainy season from June to October.
"It's still hot, and I have to wear short sleeves when I come here, and I can't stand wearing long sleeves, so I wear short sleeves!"
Zhou Sen smiled, "After I went to Myanmar, I had short sleeves in my suitcase, and sometimes I felt hot wearing long sleeves!"
"Hahaha, just get used to it!" Gonzalez said.
Manila is mainly composed of textile, oil extraction, rice milling, sugar refining, tobacco, hemp rope, metallurgical enterprises, etc., and is an important transportation hub and trading port of the Philippines, as well as a major city for exporting goods and importing goods.
"Our trip to the Philippines starts with this city, and I think it's worth introducing!" Gonzalez looked at everyone with a smile.
