Not too sure that going through Burma would have made your life easier.... Have a look at the note about "getting out"
Re: your comment about financing them... well, we spent our money as far as we could with the local non-govenmen run guest houses. And, would you believe it, we were hassled by the police at midnight for staying in a non-tourist approved g-h.!!
I think there is a case for visiting Burma but spending your money with the locals and in that way supporting them....
