2018年CRI China mobile sci-tech museum holds exhibitions in Myanmar for first time（在线收听）

A mobile sci-tech museum from China is in Myanmar's capital, Naypyidaw.

It's the first time the China Mobile Science and Technology Museum project has gone abroad.

CRI's Myanmar correspondent Tu Yun has the details.

"The general understanding is that things (due to gravity) go from a higher place to a lower place, but this is going the opposite direction. (This is) a classic exhibit of the Science and Technology Museum."

Yin Hao is Director General of the Beijing-based China Science and Technology Museum, the operator of the China Mobile Science and Technology Museum project.

He is acting as a guide at the exhibition.

"Our goal is first of all to inspire curiosity in the students, and then let them ponder why this thing goes from a lower place to a higher place automatically. In fact, this exhibit demonstrates the concept of gravity. It also reveals a philosophical idea: grasp the essence rather than the appearance. "

This is the first time the China Mobile Science and Technology Museum project has travelled abroad, with Myanmar as its first overseas destination.

Myanmar's Minister of Education, Myo Thein Gyi, says it's also the first sci-tech exhibition this country has ever had.

"Myanmar students and teachers can learn how to create. And they can strengthen their innovation capabilities and creativity. This is very important. That's why we appreciate your kind support."

Minister Counselor Li Xiaoyan of the Chinese Embassy in Myanmar says she expects the exhibition to inject new momentum into China-Myanmar science and technology cooperation.

"China is willing to share the achievements of our scientific and technological development with the rest of the world, share experiences in innovation and development, and actively advocate and participate in international cooperation in the field of science and technology. Non-governmental sci-tech exchanges are an important part of China-Myanmar science and technology cooperation. It is hoped that this project will provide Myanmar people with quality scientific education services."

The mobile museum displays 60 exhibits, such as high-tech items as 3D printing, intelligent robots, and naked-eye 3D TVs, covering multidisciplinary areas such as basic science, life sciences, information technology, and human health.

The mobile museum will tour six cities in Myanmar over the next three years.
