Management & Operation Team

Moses Samuels- Managing Director

Travelers from around the world know Moses Samuels as the dedicated host and Trustee of the only synagogue in Myanmar. For more than twenty years, Moses Samuels has taken care of the small remaining Jewish community in Myanmar, as well as the cemetery, and has helped numerous visitors with hotel, airline and other travel arrangements. Many grateful recipients of his knowledge and his assistance have urged Moses Samuels to open a travel agency so that he might more formally help people experience the beautiful and diverse country that is his home. His lifelong experience in Yangon, his lifelong knowledge of Myanmar, is now available to travelers throughout the world.

Sammy Samuels- Marketing Director and Travel Consultant

Graduate of Yeshiva University, Sy Syms School of Business in New York City, Sammy Samuels has promoted his country, Myanmar to all who know him. That’s why some of his friends and colleagues call him the “Ambassador of Burma.” He has worked at the American Jewish Congress, and has been presented his history and personal experiences in Myanmar at communal and travel events in United States. During his years in America, Sammy has assisted many people in designing and arranging their visits to Myanmar. Through Myanmar Shalom, Sammy is bringing more tourists to his amazing country.
