Document Details:
The recent political and economic changes in Myanmar are creating a climate conducive to foreign investment. The Government hopes to harness this enthusiasm and attract FDI in large public works and infrastructure through PPP, the most popular forms being BOTs and DBMOTs.
Myanmar has faced difficulties in implementing large infrastructure projects since the changes that were heralded in 2011. Both the Dawei Port Project and the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) project have faced challenges. However, investment continues to flow into Myanmar. Since 2103 FDI investments have exceeded US$2.2 billion according to UNCTAB.
