I was in Myanmar a few years ago as one of the few tourist groups to enter when they (temporarily) re-opened. I saw numerous children, living in huts and on dirt roads, playing Clash of Clans using military-provided electricity and internet (in order to influence votes)
- wsc981 4y agoI live in a pretty remote village in Thailand (actually very close to the border with Myanmar) and our village has an internet café. A lot of (mostly) boys spend time in the internet café after school playing video games. When not in the internet café, many children and young adults play games on their mobile phones. About 2 weeks ago I was in a coffee shop nearby and 3 adolescent boys were playing games there on their mobile phones. They bought a coffee to get access to free Wifi and then spend at least a couple of hours, perhaps all day, playing games.
