Gmail blocked

It was rumored last January that Gmail and Gtalk would be banned. It is confirmed now. Many of my friends were frustrated.

An official from Bagan Cybertech, the country's only Internet service provider, confirmed that both Google and gmail were inaccessible but declined to comment further.

I truly hope that they will reconsider this. Otherwise, our backward country will go further back into stone age compared to our Asian neighbors. I am not sure I want to live in Burma now.
