http://www.lightstalkers.org/galleries/contact_sheet/22742 Yangon is increasingly a muslim town or a city with a vast Islamic presence at its heart. Muslim population (according to its leaders) stands now at a whopping 20%, almost a quarter of the total in this sprawling town. This is bound to have all kinds of geopolitical and cultural implications in the near future. On a recent trip I shot a lot of pictures of the muslim community in Burma's old capital. http://www.lightstalkers.org en-us http://images.lightstalkers.org/avatars/9515/Asbestos_blues_small.jpg
