...in Myanmar — his first visit to the country — to speak in Yangon on April 2nd and in Mandalay on April 7th. The visit was a great success, with The Myanmar Times' Stuart Alan Becker saying

Richard Stallman's speeches in Yangon and at Mandalay University caused a lot of young people in Myanmar to take a second look at the trends taking place in the online world. In a country where the migration to mobile technology is happening at great speed, Stallman's message was something most of them had never heard: an activism in favor of user's control. The people who listened to Richard were exposed — some for the first time — to the notion that profit motivated companies impose restrictions and limit choices. With FSF's resources, I think some of them were opened to a new world of possibility.
