Knowledge cannot be stolen by others.
Contexto cultural
Education is considered one of the 'Seven Treasures' (Satta Ratana) in some traditional interpretations, making it a sacred pursuit. Historically, Burmese boys were sent to monasteries to learn to read and write. This proverb was often the first 'Niti' they would memorize. In the tech-savvy youth of Yangon, this proverb is being rebranded to refer to 'Digital Skills' and 'Soft Skills' as the new golden pots. In farming communities, education is seen as the only way to escape the cycle of debt, making this proverb a powerful symbol of hope.
