Should the West decide to intervene in Myanmar (a terrible error in my view), all background information will be valuable, as there is a dearth of detail about the country. Lonely Planet, Myanmar (Burma) will become a valuable source of information, updated as it is by regular feedback from travellers. The Junta are seriously bad guys, albeit incompetent, but if you swallow HMG propaganda you are being deceived. Following the cyclone, aid agencies will need to work with the military government, so trying to score political points by using the former colonial name will only serve to antagonise the very people whose co-operation you need. What’s the percentage in that? So switch to Myanmar HMG, and the rest of you, stop this childish Lonely Planet boycott immediately. You are just making yourselves look ridiculous. Visit the country before you respond, then you might have slightly more of a clue than you do now.
