Yangon is very safe. This country is still using a cash transaction system ie no checks, no credit card.

Share with you a story. My company recently purchased a new Pajero 4D for my MD. The price in Myanmar is around USD320,000 ( due to taxes). Imagine the most common denomination is 1000kyats ( around USD1). We actually used 1 car to carry 21 PP plastic sacks of money to buy this Pajero.

When we arrive at the dealership, we were ushered in a room. There were 6 staff waiting to count the money. They took 2 hours.

All these while, from our office to the dealership, no bodyguard is required.

If u rob a rich looking people in Myanmar, u can expect to get much cash . Everyone carries cash there.
Thanks for your reply. I have a few more questions which I hope you can provide some answers.
1) Is it advisable to carry mostly US$ instead of Kyats since it is less bulky?
2) Does the average Burmese accept the US$ for purchases and is it legal to use US$ there?
3) Where is the best place to buy kyats ?
4) What do you do with the excess kyats before you leave Myanmar, can we change it back to US$ at close to the rate we buy?
5) Is it advisable to carry my passport at all times with me for checks by authorities ?
6) Is there any black areas that we should avoid while in Yangon and other popular tourist towns there?

I am grateful for your kind advice. Thank you.

Re: Any one try at Yangoon -Myammar before

My view,
You can carry both US $ and kyats. But it's illegal to accept US$ from tourist. Once you arrive to YGN airport, there is a Foreign exchange counter (open by government) Tourist must change minimum 300$ or something like that with US$ equivalent special note called FEC. You can sell them back once you reach your hotel reception. You no need to go around and ask people for the money changer as there is none. It's illegal to buy dollar from tourist but you can change every where. But remember you have to pay hotel charges with US$ or FEC.
You no need to carry around your passport as you need to give at the hotel.
There are some black area for foreigners. Like you go Aung San Suu Kyi house . But not alot.
You can change back to dollar when you go back. Just easily ask the reception counter (price may be abit different but it's not much)
Like "pearl" say, it's very safe in Myanmar. Much much better than malaysia.

Good luck bro

I am grateful for y;ur kind advice. Thank you.
Hope these helped:

1) Carry USD la.. Ks too bulky. Change as u need.
2) All transaction in Ks. Only major outlets accept USD like hotels.
3) Best place is to change at Panorama Hotel lobby. If not too much, just change at your hotel. Difference is not much and its much more convenient.
4) Excess Ks u keep lo or donate. I know Parkroyal doesnt change it back for you.
5) No need to bring passport out.
6) All area are safe but dont go gung-ho and walk into an unlighted street. If intuition screams BEWARE, just dont do it.

Bro.. Dont have to change into FEC. NOT A REQUIREMENT.

I never changed once into FEC. How it looks like I also dont know. By the way. 1 USD = 1 FEC.

If u change at airport, they might use official Government FEC rate which is FEC 1 = 6 Ks. Outside rate is USD 1 = 970ks ( yesterday rate). Change FEC liao sure regret like hell.

There is a lot of money changers in Yangon. Mostly located in Chinatown. For convenience sake, change in Hotel.

Singapore embassy is the most troublesome. But as long as you get the Visa, its ok liao.

Boring or not, u will know when u reach there.

Myanmar is a nice place.. just know that this country is under-developed. It looks like Sg in the 60s

You can always use travel agent in Singapore, HK, or Bangkok to get Myanmar visa. The agents collect passports and apply in bulk numbers, and these agents are very close to these visa issuers, in BKK, they even have expensive same day service. I think the VOA will be back after the junta winning the election by big margin as expected.

Try to stay away from Myanmar at least until 2 weeks after election.

Came back recently and noticed a heightened sense of tension in this city. More armed military monitoring in the streets.
