There should not have such terms like "Myanmarese" or "Myanmese". I, as a Burmese, like only refering to me as "Burmese" or "Myanmar".

The demonym(resident of locality) of Myanmar(country) is Myanmar. Burmese are a larger ethnic group who have more cultural influence in Myanmar. Thus, Burmese can also be used as demonym, although other minor ethnic races will prefer to be called as Myanmar.

Myanmarese or Myanmese are invalid usages.
