Frequently asked questions
How attractive is Myanmar as a destination for visitors from Spain?
Myanmar offers a rich cultural heritage and stunning landscapes, making it an intriguing destination for some Spanish travelers. With 7 million Spaniards traveling abroad annually, a portion may find Myanmar appealing, contributing to the country's growing tourism sector and economic vitality.
Please answer the following question: How safe is Myanmar for tourists coming from Spain?
Myanmar presents significant safety concerns for tourists, particularly when compared to Spain. While Spain ranks 22nd among 40 European countries for safety while walking alone at night, there is no comparable data for Myanmar. The Global Peace Index places Myanmar at 145th out of 160 countries, indicating a much lower safety level than Spain, which ranks 23rd. Crime statistics further illustrate the disparity: Spain has a murder rate of 0.6 per 100,000 people, while Myanmar's rate is alarmingly high at 28.4. Additionally, female murder rates are 0.4 in Spain compared to 7.3 in Myanmar. The Global Organized Crime Index also highlights serious issues in Myanmar, with higher scores indicating worse conditions. For instance, mafia groups in Myanmar score 9.0, compared to Spain's 6.0. Other crime indices, such as state crime (8.5 in Myanmar vs. 5.0 in Spain) and human trafficking (6.5 in Myanmar vs. 7.0 in Spain), reflect similar trends. In summary, tourists from Spain should exercise caution when considering travel to Myanmar due to its lower safety rankings and higher crime rates.
