Myanmar - New Business Frontier

Myanmar has completed her first free election in a quarter of a century, as Aung San Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy party swept to power. The military government however still retains 25% of seats in the Parliament and maintains control of key ministries. The country has drawn significant foreign investment since 2012, with improvements continuously being made in how business is done there.

Where do Malaysian companies stand? How can they benefit from this?

This is a report by Keith Kam.
