Myanmar's first sex education magazine"Hnyo"

Hnyo - which translates as "enchant" or "hypnotise" - was among the more risque publications to emerge after the abolition in August of pre-publication censorship that was a hallmark of life under the former junta.

With its photos of scantily clad women and advice on bedroom secrets, Myanmar's first sex education magazine has gone a step too far for the country's censors who have banned it from publication. "Hnyo" was pulled after just one issue because it was deemed to have ventured beyond its remit as a "fashion" magazine.

"Hnyo"is the first publication to have its licence revoked since the end of decades of military rule in early 2011.
