Software developer Daiichi Computer Resource Co. has compiled a book of common Burmese expressions titled "Active Myanmar" that can also be downloaded on cellphones.

The Nagoya-based company has established an office specializing in software development in Yangon, Myanmar's largest city and commercial hub, and the phrases in the book are taken from DCR's business dealings in the rapidly developing country.

Designed for use on cellphones, the book contains the largest selection of Burmese vocabulary currently available for Japanese users.
