Non-paper - 18 Jan 2018 - Investment Opportunities in Infrastructure in 2018

While Myanmar’s economic growth is projected to sustain its momentum in the future, there is huge need for large-scale investment ininfrastructure. In particular, infrastructure projects covering road, bridge and railway construction, housing, connectivity, electricity and water supply, healthcare, education and tourism, are of immediate need for Myanmar to sustain its economic growth. 

Myanmar urgently needs to close its infrastructure gap, to further integrate with the world economy, and to collaborate with neighboring countries, in order to maximize its economic growth from the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) and China’s One-Belt-One-Road Initiative. The Asian Development Bank (ADB) stated that Myanmar’s infrastructure gap from now to 2030 is worth US$120 billion. Thus, the government is accelerating its implementation of infrastructure projects, particularly on roads, bridges, railways, ports, airports, energy and power, industrial parks, economic zones, and logistics. The government welcomes investors to invest in infrastructure improvement projects under the Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) or other Public Private Partnership (PPP) agreement.
