Yangon City Development Committee
Yangon Region consists of 45 townships. Among these, the city of Yangon now encompasses 33 townships divided into four districts. Yangon City Development Committee (YCDC) is the principal agency responsible for planning, development, infrastructure, provision and operation of municipal services in Yangon City. YCDC has the duties and responsibilities to lay down the policy, give guidance, supervise or implement for the development works of the City of Yangon. YCDC as the main municipal body of the region government also supports and facilitates for other townships outside of Yangon City for the balanced, integrated and 12 comprehensive development.

16 Yangon City Development Committee DEVELOPMENT VISIONS
17 Yangon City Development Committee Sub-center with Green Isle System Future Land Use of Greater Yangon
• Aims at decentralizing urban center. • Sub-centers will be created around 10-15 km radius area from CBD. • Controls urban expansion by creating outer green belt. • Future urbanization along the outer ring road in the next step of development of the sub- 18 centers growth belt will be promoted namely “Outer Ring Growth Belt”. Yangon City Development Committee Urban Function Industrial Function Green and Water Function
Not only current CBD but also other new area centers will play a role of city centers in the future to accommodate a large population. Labor population of secondary sector is estimated to increase by 554 thousands from present to 2040, so 700 ha of additional new industrial zones will be necessary Green areas should be conserved mainly on “ North-South Green Axis”. Large-scale new parks should be also created, especially along the outer ring growth belt. 19 Yangon City Development Committee Road Network Railway Network Logistics Network
New road network is proposed, characterized by construction of an outer ring road which is a circular highway passing around 15-30km radius area from CBD, and some other radial and ring roads. It is estimated that railway transport in Yangon City will deal with 6 million trips in 2040. In the case that 350 km railway network is established in the future, not only modernization of existing 3 lines (122 km) but also construction of 5 new 5 MRT lines (232 km) will be required. Logistics network between south-east area (direction to Thilawa) and north-east area (direction to the new international airport, Nay Pyi Taw, Mandalay and Bago) will be more important in the 20 future than present.

Yangon 2040 An Attractive International Port and Logistics Hub The City of Blue, Green and Gold Yangon City Development Committee Due to Myanmar’s geo- strategic location , many Economic Corridors have been identified linking with neighboring countries. GMS Countries have (9) Corridors
Newly Proposed Corridor : Myanmar-Lao PDR-Vietnam (Proposed by Vietnam in the ACMECS First Working Group Meeting)
Currently Implementing and planned Sea Port and Deep Sea Ports : Myanmar-Lao PDR-Vietnam (Proposed by Vietnam in the ACMECS First Working Group Meeting) 5353 Yangon City Development Committee
• Kyuakphyu-Kunming and Dawei Kanchanaburi- Bangkok economic Corridors are potential for region’s logistic hub • Yangon being in the strategic location, development of Thilawa SEZ, waterway connections from the north along Ayeyarwaddy river, road connections from Pathein-Yangon- Mawlamyaing-Myawaddy-Maesod and other features leads to the necessity of a deep sea 54 port in the south of Yangon Yangon City Development Committee National Spatial Development Framework Plan
• Adopted Yangon and Mandalay Bi-Polar Development Concept • Practice Concentrated Decentralization and Balanced Development Strategy
55 Yangon City Development Committee Conclusion Yangon Region, being the largest urban agglomeration area in the country, contributes around 20% to the total national GDP as well as the region has the highest per capita GDP in the Union of Myanmar. The issue of future economic growth of Yangon Region and the plans of Special Economic Zone, seriously calls for national urbanization plan and strategy which should be carried out in the union level. Not only Kyaukphyu, Dawei and Thilawa SEZs, Yangon being in the geo-strategic location, it will become one of the main logistic hubs, so the development of Southern Yangon and planning for the future deep sea port is a prioritized task of Yangon. Having the best universities and education facilities and also the cooperation with international institutions, Yangon will become the main educational and knowledge hub of the country. Therefore Yangon Region Government will serve its best for the future development and the benefits for the citizens of Yangon. 5656 Yangon City Development Committee
