Sub-title:
ADB operations in Myanmar address the strategic areas of infrastructure connectivity, human capital and skills development, and structural and institutional reform to improve the inclusiveness of the country’s economic growth.
Description:
"Building on successful political and
economic transformation, Myanmar is
emerging as a prosperous nation. The
country possesses abundant natural
resources, a strategic location at the
crossroads of Asia, a young population,
and a sizable market with wide-ranging
investment opportunities.
However, much remains to be done to
maintain stability in the country, both on
the macroeconomic front and in terms
of peace and reconciliation. Myanmar
needs to address significant gaps in
infrastructure and human resources,
which constrain social and economic
development. The reform agenda
should also continue progressing toward
good governance, effective public sector
management, and a conducive business
environment.
The Asian Development Bank (ADB)
commenced reengagement with
Myanmar in early 2012. ADB has since
been supporting the country’s national
development strategies and priority
programs in collaboration with other
development partners..."
