Document Details:

Myanmar requires large-scale infrastructure investments in power generation, transportation, special economic zones, and resource development, as well as other supporting infrastructure, to realize its long-term growth and development. Such mega-projects typically have high costs, take years to develop and build, involve many stakeholders, and carry significant long-term impacts.
