This kind of reasoning is self-perpetuating, though: there are no good museums here, so interesting things need to be shipped abroad to be exhibited properly, so there are no good museums here because there's nothing interesting to put in them ….
(I don't necessarily blame any individual for this—I think most of us are sometimes, or always, part of one system or another that everyone hates but that is the result of constant rational decisions.)
- rad_gruchalski 2y agoCould it be that the current political situation in Myanmar isn’t the most stable?
- lazide 2y agoEh, typically museums exist where there is a lot of money willing to be spent on showing things off, or spinning a narrative. Or capitals of empires that have done a lot of Looting. Many of these things are basically variants of the same thing. Myanmar, well…. doesn’t really have the wealth for most of those things.
