Myanmar Trishaw (ဆိုက်ကား)

In Myanmar, cycle rickshaws or trishaws (known as ဆိုက်ကား /saik kar), directly pronounced as in the English word “side car”) came first into wide use in 1938, when the Year-1300 Revolution (Myanmar Traditional Calendar), which originated from the Chauk oil-field strike, inspired the people in Mandalay to have a consciousness of nationalism and to boycott British goods and services.

The auto body technician Saya Nyo built the first trishaw in Mandalay by attaching a side-car to the side of an old bicycle. So two passengers are on the right of the driver.

Only two forms of transportation were then available in the city; the cab and the electric train. The latter could run only on six-mile tracks.

Trishaws could reach every nook and cranny, so the spirit of nationalism plus the advantage of trishaws reaching everywhere made them so popular among Mandalayans that even the train company had to stop its business.

Trishaws are still widely used as means of transportation in Myanmar.
