EDITOR’S NOTE

The year 2024 has passed. Myanmar has endured great adversaries from Buddhism’s teaching such as the adversaries of water, fire, theft, and evil rulers. Myanmar people have also encountered disasters and tragedies. The notion of everyday peace has become a myth; socioeconomic conditions are strained, and it is a real struggle just to survive in the nation’s political and armed conflicts. ISP-Myanmar empathizes with Myanmar’s populace who are struggling daily. As the saying goes, “A burden shared is a burden halved.” We believe people can overcome these profound challenges by offering support and kindness to one another.

ISP-Myanmar publishes this Insight Email as a special edition. We would like to share the favorites of our audiences among our 2024 published research and findings. In 2024, ISP-Myanmar published 557 research outputs which received positive responses from our audiences. Our social media posts and media outputs reached 48 million people, generating over 3.6 million engagements through reactions, comments, and shares. This support buoys our commitment to persevere. Addressing a national crisis demands not just physical strength but intellectual vigor as well. As the Burmese proverb says, “The reeds sway with the island as the island anchors the reeds,” the writer cannot thrive without the audience. In this spirit, we sincerely extend our deepest gratitude to our readers, whose support is the foundation of ISP-Myanmar’s continued existence.

The 10 most-read topics of 2024 reflect the interests and engagement of our social media audience and ISP’s core community, the Gabyin Community. Before diving in, we invite you to explore “ISP-Myanmar in Numbers – 2024.”

The following figures indicate the interest of our audiences in the research analyses. We will briefly recap the top ten topics of the year in this Insight Email. On that note, we will also delve deeper into these topics in 2025. Moreover, we aim to expand our understanding of other key areas and publish sharp findings and analyses. 2024 proved challenging. ISP-Myanmar wishes a safe and prosperous 2025 for all.
