I was reading wikipedia about metrication and it says
"As of 2007, only the United States, Liberia, and Myanmar (Burma) have not adopted the International System of Units as their primary or sole system of measurement[1], although it is widely used in all countries in science, medicine, and engineering. Note, however, that at least Myanmar uses metric units on a practical basis in daily life."
So why do these countries not embrace metrication for everyday use???
