Ali Drummond, the British skater who helped secure permission to build Yangon’s first all-around skatepark, is a man of many talents.
First, he can skate. Secondly, he has powers of persuasion: he got the Yangon City Development Committee to agree to a skatepark for crying out loud!
But in an interview with local media this week, Drummond, who works with global non-profit Make Life Skate Life, revealed another talent: speaking Burmese.
