Among them, the top language groups are Myanmar (Burmese), Shan, Kayin (Karen), Rakhine, Mon, Chin and Kachin. The earliest stone inscription of Myanmar and Mon languages can be found on MyaZeDi Stone inscription (AD 1113). There are long history of printing and publishing in Myanmar languages. Computerization also has been started long ago. It is still not sufficient enough to localize basic software into Myanmar languages and present in cyberspace. Myanmar Character Code (with Extension for ethnic languages) has been allocated in UCS/Unicode (U+1000-U+109F). Many people have put effort since long time ago to develop Myanmar Character Codes and Fonts but the limited cooperation between international organizations, experts, venders and local end users slowed implementation of Myanmar languages (Burmese language and the Ethnic languages). This paper mainly emphasizes on the necessary cooperation among the developers, venders and local end users.}, pages = {249--264}, title = {Languages of Myanmar in Cyberspace}, volume = {19}, year = {2005} }
