I like both places so do not think you can go wrong with either. I think there is something to be said for going to Myanmar quite soon before it becomes too westernised.
100% agree. I plan on going back to Myanmar soon because I fear it will be "ruined" in the next 10 years.
Personally I did not like Yangon at all. I would suggest Mandalay and Bagan. The only thing worth seeing in Yangon was the Schwedagon Pagoda. You can fly from Bangkok to Mandalay.
