Where is MoeMaKa – Current Situation

Where is MoeMaKa – Current Situation

MoeMaKa has established and maintained as one and only community based station providing Burmese literature and audio/video archives run by Burmese volunteers and professionals among other Burmese Internet portals.

That is why within the year 2007, MoeMaKa has reached 2,000 subscriptions ( last year with 1,600 members) of its online free newsletter service.

It is now reaching a bandwidth of 80 GB a month from 8000 over unique Internet service provider (ISP) servers. Now it is hosting on 2 separate ISP web servers to balance the load of demands from the audience as some of the readers have to come out from inside Burma through firewall and proxy. We also have created MoeMaKa Blog on Google’s free blogger service to tunnel the audience as backup.

It is not only running with the individual volunteers but also with volunteer groups and organization from different location across the globe as to prove the positive effort of the strong networking function of MoeMaKa’s teamwork.
