In this paper, it is proved that gender inequality is a crucial problem that has to resolve straight away for upgrading the individual capacity of human resources in Myanmar society. The research finding is that gender inequality has been rooted in Myanmar tradition in several areas of the society such as family lives, workplace, social relationships, and religious communities while it may not be clarified as the influence of traditional beliefs. Consequently, the individual capacities of women are wasted despite the fact that they possess particular skills in their workplaces or community. This is the demerit of the effective application of human resources as the right person in right place in Myanmar society. Here, it is a noteworthy fact that eliminating gender discrimination and recognizing or reconsidering the crucial role of women not only as women, but individual human resources like that of men is the key to opening up the Myanmar society towards more progressive steps into the world. The literature survey and comparison was made to collect data of some significant Myanmar literary works especially focusing on Myanmar Novels. The Analytical method, descriptive method, and evaluative method were used for data analysis and recommending the functional way for resolving the gender issue, a barrier to development of Myanmar society.

In the same way, it often associated with the religious conceptions in its earliest times and then gradually come to be deeply associated with the scientific conceptions in the course of its conceptual development. Of the various conceptions of space and time in the Eastern and Western traditions, that of Japanese tradition is significant as its syncretism of ancient Asian traditions such as Shintoism, Buddhism, and Taoism. In this paper, the attempt will be made to show the significant features of Japanese traditional thought by the philosophical analysis of the concept of space and time. To achieve the aim of the research, descriptive method and evaluative method will be used. As the contribution it can be expected that through the real understanding of Japanese philosophical conception of Space and Time, it will turn out to be cross cultural understanding among the traditional cultures of today's world.

Actually, a noteworthy aspect of the Dragon Symbol in this era is its unique cosmological aspects which are closely related to the notion of national territory (国土観). In order to consider and discuss this significant facet, we must turn our attention to the religious thoughts and territorial notions of Medieval Japan. In this respect, it was attempted to conduct an analytical and comparative study of the Dragon Symbol in Medieval Japan by focusing on the image of the Dragon as described in Gyoki-Zu (行基図). Gyoki-Zu refers to old maps of Japan which feature unique characteristics illustrated as the figure of encircling by giant Dragon and take Gyoki’s name (a Buddhist priest of high virtue in the Nara Period, AD 710-794). In this illustration it can be found the uniqueness of cosmological thought and territorial notions in Medieval Japan by analyzing the symbol of Dokko and the Dragon, which take on importance in Gyoki-Zu. They represent the “Central” or “Pivotal” sense of cosmology and so are used as the most appropriate metaphor to assert the “Central” or “Pivotal” notion of homeland or territory in Medieval Japan. In this paper, it was attempted to explain the uniqueness of cosmological and territorial notions in Medieval Japan in which indigenous Shintoism and Buddhism are adopted as Japanese syncretism from a new perspective.

It was divided into two periods of Myanmar films in order to discuss the main theme of the research. The first period is under the realm of British monarchic system during 1920 to 1947. The second period is after become independent from British colonialism especially during 1948 to 1970’s. Of the several genres of these films, the two were selected to discuss for their significant artistic representational style. The scenario of the former was based on relationship between Japan and Myanmar named “A Japanese Girl” 『日本娘』 in which the freedom of representation can be seen directly as the patriotic spirit of Myanmar people who against the British monarchy. The latter is a famous propaganda film named “Bethu Pyainlo Hlapartautnaing” (b,folNydKifvdkUvSygawmhEdkif) based on the Literacy Campaign in country side which was awarded the academy prize in which even though the freedom of representation is limited under the policy of the government at that time, the director U Thuka tried to convey his messages reflected the real social situation and real life of Myanmar people in some way through his talented creativity. This paper proved that the artistic presentation and creativity of the artist can overcome any suppressions of the government in some way and their capacities of aesthetic conveyance always transcend the time and space or periods and cultures.

Environmental aesthetics originated pursuing instead the investigation of the aesthetic appreciation of natural environments. In this respect, this fundamental stage of the development of environmental aesthetics can also be seen in some Myanmar poems on the imaginative creation of the natural environment. As the contribution of this paper, it can be expected to show that the imaginative creations of some Myanmar poets belonging to the natural environment have unique value to awaken the aesthetic appreciation of Myanmar people and to evoke the recognition of human responsibilities to sustain the harmonious coexistence with the natural environment.
