It's only recently that foreign writers and exile Burmese have been allowed into the country, according to festival organizer Jane Heyn.

It was then, and even in some cases has been for this festival, quite difficult for participants, some of them to obtain a visa, said Heyn.

当时, 甚至在某些情况下对于这个节日而言, 参与者们想要来非常困难, 他们中的一些人需要获得一张签证, 海因说道。
