Favorite thing: They are golden Buddha, gifts from Thailand.
The right one's index finger could have water drops. (It depends on your luck with Buddha)
Women who have periode are not recommended to touch Buddha statues.
For respect you are suggested to follow the rule.

Favorite thing: Burma people under army control are arm.
However, the government can do their best to decorate Buddha figure.
