Myanmar New Year 2024 at MAI
The celebration of the Myanmar New Year at Moscow Aviation Institute became quite a significant event, as it allowed the students from Myanmar to celebrate their traditional holiday in a country that is far from their Motherland. Participation in the celebration helped them to keep in touch with their native culture and traditions, and also share them with other students and professors.
Organizing prayers with the monks also turned out to be important, as it is a traditional part of New Year celebrations in Myanmar. Prayers symbolize well-being, good luck and prosperity in the new year, and it is also a way of calling for spiritual purification and finding inner peace.
Participation in such traditional events helps students from other countries to understand and respect the culture and beliefs of their fellow countrymen, and contributes to intercultural dialogue and mutual understanding.
