 * ... that the Yangon-based Myanmar National Symphony Orchestra, founded in 2001, was permitted to perform just three public concerts in its first dozen years of existence?

 * Symbol question.svg Created on 15th Dec, and long enough. References are appropriate and sufficient.  I have linked the article to a few others.  The hook fact is booked up by the sources, particularly [2], and other facts in the article are correct and suitably referenced.  However, there are some sections of wording which are rather too close to their sources.  This is a specific problem with certain passages rather than a constant problem throughout.  Examples of close paraphrasing include the following:
 * It was not until 2004 that the orchestra held its first concert at MRTV's Studio A for invited guests.
 * Things changed for the better in January 2012 when Khin Nyunt was freed from house arrest.
 * Because it lacked skilled musicians to play such key instruments as violins and oboes, the orchestra enlisted musicians from Vietnam...
 * Please could these be reworded accordingly. All other aspects of the article and hook are fine for DYK.  [[User:Hassocks5489|
