Between 1 October and 31 May in the current fiscal, 79 local enterprises were allowed to invest in the country by the Myanmar Investment Commission and the state and region investment committees. Domestic investments have reached K1,297 billion so far, including the expansion of capital by existing enterprises, as per the DICA’s data.
Domestic investors pumped K1,041 billion into 108 projects in the October-November period in the 2018-2019 financial year. This fiscal year, the number of enterprises permitted was 29 less than the previous year. However, the quantum of investment was larger compared with the year-ago period as the business with large capital flowed into the country, the DICA stated.

The domestic investments also flow into real estate development, transportation and communication, livestock and fisheries, industrial estate, mining and power sectors. (Translated by Ei Myat Mon)
