1. Is mobile phone communication and internet is a big problem in Yangon? Can i check my Gmail,Rediffmail acount and what is cost of net surfing in USD?
(Not big problem. There are many internet cafes everywhere and it opens till midnight. And also you can use business centre at your hotel. 90% of Myanmar people here use Gmail. So that you do not need to worry about gmail. 40cent per hr))

2. Official rate of 1 USD ~ 6.7 MMK (kyat)and in local market 1 USD ~ 1200 or 1300 MMK, what is this confusion. (Official rate is used only for the business connected with government. Do not use it among people. Now the rate is 900 Ks per 1 usd. There is black exchange market here and it uodate the rate daily like stock market.)

3. I am a simple guy and having a moderate lifestyle have got the offer of 1000 USD per month excluding company provided accommodation, How much maximum i can save from this?
(for the local company manager got salary about USD 500 per month. They can stay like a little more than moderate class person.)

expecting answer from experienced person.
thanks and regards
