About 50 years ago, the military dictatorship decided they wanted to punish the British for their imperialistic past, by switching from driving on the left to the right hand side of the road. Only problem is, they're about as unique doing this in Asia as Britain are in Europe. And the entire second hand car market for them is in Asia. Which means, steering wheel on the right hand side...but it gets better...this goes for buses too, which means exit and entrance is...into the middle of the road. :hehe:

in Asia and Oceania driving on the right hand side.

Another funny thing - USD works fine in Burma, as long as the notes are in immaculate condition. Not a wrinkle is accepted.
