Curry flavored Myanmar

Myanmar is located between two ancient civilizations, in a \”low-pressure zone\” between the two civilizations, deeply influenced by Chinese and Indian cultures. Victor King and William Wilder mentioned in their article \”Contemporary Southeast Asian Anthropology\” that, based on my personal experience of living in Yangon for a year, the influence of Indian civilization on Myanmar has been embedded in every aspect of Burmese people\’s clothing, food, housing, and transportation. It can be said that more than half of Myanmar\’s \”sandwich sandwich\” has a curry flavor.
