A good book to read at Thadingyut (Ceremony of Lights) when the Buddha came back down to earth from preaching the dharma to his late mother in Heaven. See how blessed we were at the Institute of Economics, Rangoon, Burma to have such wonderful mentors.
Thank you all who contributed articles and helped me sell copies for flood relief recently.
Young people have no idea what higher education was like before 1962 and before 1988, and this might give you a good idea.
Not least was the atmosphere of trust and respect between mentors and mentees/students.
We were truly fortunate to have had so many western-educated and world class economists teaching us.
