Rangoon was once home to a sizeable community of Goans (from then Portuguese Goa). The building in the picture was one of the biggest Goan businesses in the city: E.M de Souza's chemists (pharmacy) at 465 Dalhousie Street (now Mahabandoola Street). The building now belongs to Myanmar Posts and Telecommunications. Sadly, the portico is gone.
