2.2.23 Myanmar Sittwe Airport 2.2.23 Myanmar Sittwe Airport Airport Overview Runway Airport Infrastructure Details Fuel Services Charges Passenger Services Flight Schedules Royalties / Non Objection Fees (NOFs) Airport Overview Sittwe Airport started as RAF Station Sittwe, a military airfield in World War II, and was handed over to Department of Civil Aviation by the International Aero Limited Company on 24 July 1947. It was upgraded to 6,000 feet long and 140 feet wide gravel mixed asphalt runway in 1960. The airport building was extended to 220 feet by 60 feet from 120 feet by 60 feet and it was opened on 22 March 2002. A four-foot thick asphalt concrete layer was placed on the 6000 x 150 feet runway, the 525 x 75 feet taxiway and the 600 x 300 feet apron and opened on 20 May 2009 for use of F-28 jets. There are five domestic airlines (Golden Myanmar, Air KBZ, Mann Yadarnarpon, Air Thanlwin and Myanmar National Airlines) providing regular flights to Sittwe airport. There is no specified helipad but landing arrangement can be made at apron area. The largest plane that can be handled is medium-sized 100-seat planes such as the Airbus A320. It is equipped with night landing facilities such as airfield lighting, approach light and remote-control air ground machines. Sittwe Airport handled around 432,000 passengers in 2019. Some private international airlines for offshore projects had been used at Sittwe since 2004 as a base with one fixed wing and one helicopter. It is feasible to use as a humanitarian hub, however a special arrangement needs to be coordinated with DCA and temporary storage facility options need to be looked at since there is limited storage space and ground handling equipment on the ground.

  • Business Conglomerates in the Context of Myanmar's Economic
    Chapter 6 Business Conglomerates in the Context of Myanmar’s Economic Reform Aung Min and Toshihiro Kudo Abstract The purpose of this paper is to identify the role of conglomerates in the context of Myanmar’s economic reform process. The paper addresses the research question of the role of business conglomerates and the Myanmar economy, such as are they growth engines or just political cronies? We select some of the top conglomerates in Myanmar and assess their profile, performance, and strategies and examine the sources of growth and limitations for future growth and prospects. The top groups chosen for this paper are Htoo, Kanbawza, Max, Asia World, IGE, Shwe Taung, Serge Pun Associates (SPA)/First Myanmar Investment Group of Companies (FMI), Loi Hein, IBTC, Myanmar Economic Corporation (MEC), and Union of Myanmar Economic Holdings Ltd. (UMEHL). There are other local conglomerates that this paper does not address and they include Shwe Than Lwin Group, Eden Group, Capital and Dagon International etc., which are suggested for further research about Myanmar’s conglomerates in the future. Sources of growth and key success factors of the top business groups are their connection with government, contact with foreign partners, and their competency in the past and present. In the context of the economic reform, previously favored business people appear to recognize that the risks of challenging economic reform could outweigh the likely benefits. In addition, some of the founders and top management of the conglomerates are still subject to US sanctions. Market openness, media monitoring, competition by local and foreign players, sanctions, and the changing trends of policy and the economy limit the growth of conglomerates.

  • TSRA Days in Yangon International Airport (Hourly Analysis of 2009-2019) Kyaw Than Oo Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology
    Environmental Science: An Indian Journal Research | Vol 17 Iss 2 TSRA days in Yangon International airport (Hourly analysis of 2009-2019) Kyaw Than Oo Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology *Corresponding Author: Kyaw Than Oo, School of Atmospheric Science, Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology, Yangon, China, Tel: +95 9954 575 418; E-Mail: [email protected] Received: February 9, 2021; Accepted: February 24, 2021; Published: February 26, 2021 Abstract “A Thunderstorm Day Is Defined As An Observational Day During Which Thunder Heard At The Station” (Kuleshov 2012). Thunderstorms have a significant impact on airport performance and cause delayed operations if the airport capacity is constrained. “TSRA days in Yangon International Airport” is a statistical analysis of the observations data obtained by the meteorological stations at YANGON international airports (VYYY) of Myanmar for Thunderstorm days occurrences. It covers an eleven-year period from January 2009 – December 2019. During 2009-2019, we have 119874 times of observation data from YANGON International Airport, thirty-minute (xx20, and xx50) Aviation Routine Weather Reports (METARs). Among these data, we got 20219 times of weather phenomena occurred including 1237 times of Thunderstorms occurrences. Visibility during Thunderstorm (TS) or thunderstorm rain (TSRA) the averaging visibility will be 3500 m with 6.67% frequencies during these 2009 to 2019. Maximum TSRA occurrences may be occurred between 15:00 to 16:30 afternoons in those TSRA days at Yangon international airport. For the aviation purpose, 00:00 UTC to 04:00 UTC is the better time for daytime operations in those TSRA days. This paper will first examine the impact of aviation climatology on these airports.
