Purchasing travel or event tickets.
Contexto cultural
During the Thingyan festival, buying a ticket is extremely difficult. People often sleep at the bus station to be first in line. The state lottery (Aung Bar Lay) is a national pastime. Buying a ticket is seen as a way to support the state while dreaming of wealth. The youth in Yangon now prefer buying movie tickets via the 'Mingalar Cinema' app to avoid long queues. It is polite for the eldest or the 'leader' of a group to handle the ticket buying for everyone.
