The U.S. Department of State's 2010 report on international religious freedom stated that there was evidence that the Burmese authorities were trying to force non-Buddhists into converting to Buddhism. There were even reports in which local authorities were operating in the high schools and ensuring that only Buddhist students could have the opportunity of obtaining government jobs after graduation. So in order for Christian individuals to attend these opportunity high schools, they must first convert to Buddhism.
In your view, are these reports accurate and does the Burmese government truly restrict job opportunities and economic privileges for young students based on ethnicity and religion? If this is truly the case, have these pressured conversions had an apparent impact on these religious and minority communities?
