Al
While most of Asia s major cities are increasingly
homogenized by rapid economic growth and cultural
globalization, Rangoon, which is Burma s former capital
and largest city, still bears the imprint of a unique and
often turbulent history. It is the site of the Shwedagon
Pagoda, a focus of Buddhist pilgrimage and devotion
since the early second millennium
CE
that continues
to play a major role in national life, in
1852,
the
British occupied Rangoon and made it their colonial
capital, building a modern port and administrative
center based on Western designs. It became the
capital of independent Burma in
1948,
but in
2005
the State Peace and Development Council military
junta established a new, heavily fortified capital at
Naypyidaw,
320
kilometers north of the old capital.
A major motive for the capital relocation was the
regime s desire to put distance between itself and
Rangoon s historically restive population. Reacting
to the huge
anti
-government demonstrations of
Democracy Summer in
1988,
the new military
regime used massive violence to pacify the city and
sought to transform it in line with its supreme goal of
state security. However, the Saffron Revolution of
September
2007
showed that Rangoon s traditions
of resistance reaching back to the colonial era are still
very much alive.
