Burma: should tourists go?
When I visit a country for the first time and like it, I expect to be able to encourage other people to visit it. Burma presents a trickier problem. There are those who argue that the country’s military government is so repressive that we should not go there at all. Others, heard perhaps less often, say that, as that government is becoming more inward-looking, the Burmese need visitors and contact with the outside world more than ever. Read my piece on Telegraph Travel and make up your own mind.
