The latest expansion of the Trump administration travel ban went into effect in February, adding Myanmar, also known as Burma, as well as Muslim-majority Sudan, Eritrea, Kyrgyzstan, Tanzania and Nigeria.

“This kind of policy is supposedly banning potential terrorists. However, we have never seen Burmese terrorizing the world,” said Moe Chan, who runs a community news group on Facebook.”If you have found one, please let me know.”
