And for us, people from Burma, even though we are not participating officially in Earth Hour 2010, it is very lucky that our people in Burma are celebrating Earth Hour nearly everyday and sometimes it last about more than a day also. So, it is not a new thing for people of Burma. We all are saving energy per country-wide measure.
Furthermore, today is 65th anniversary Military Day of Burma also. Unfortunately, it falls on Saturday, government employee wasted one of the gazettes holidays.
