It is the second largest region of Myanmar and is characterised by mountain ranges from north to south and fertile valleys. Access to the villages is ag- grevated.

Consequently, the rural population gains access to public institutions and regional markets all year long. Especially farmers can generate a higher income by selling their rice, vegeta- bles and fruits. By ensuring access to regional economic centres, the access to the national highway system is often also ensured. This establishes the opportunity for farmers not only from Sagaing Region but also from Chin State to grow and sell their products even on na- tional markets.

  • Improvement of Meteorological
    IMPROVEMENT OF METEOROLOGICAL OBSERVATION SYSTEM IN MYANMAR By Hla Tun Office No (5), Ministry of Transport and Communications, Department of Meteorology and Hydrology, Nay Pyi Taw, Myanmar Tel. +95 67 411 250, +95 9 860 1162, Mobile Phone: +95 250 954 642, Fax : (+95) 67 411 526 E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The Department of Meteorology and Hydrology (DMH) is under the administration of the Ministry of Transport and Communications. Main works performed by DMH are routine observation and analysis of meteorological phenomena, and providing of timely and accurate weather and climate information through acquisition of weather monitoring and dissemination systems for the general public. DMH also provides meteorological and hydrological information for shipping and aviation as well as agricultural and environment activities. Before Cyclonic Storm "Nargis", (103) surface weather observation stations in Myanmar used manual observing system. As at then, we are improved on installation of Automated Weather Observing Systems at 14 stations including at former Headquarter of National Meteorological Center (NMCs) namely Yangon (Kaba-aye) and new Headquarter of National Meteorological Center (NMCs) namely Nay Pyi Taw. Early months of this year (2016), regarding the Grant Aid Project of Japan, we installed additional Surface Automated Weather Observing Systems (AWS) at existing 30 Meteorological observation stations such as Nay Pyi Taw (Early Warning Center), Yangon (Kaba-aye), Mandalay, Putao, Myitkyina, Bhamo, Lashio, Taunggyi, Kengtung, Namsam, Hakha, Hkamti, Kalay, Monywa, Meikhtila, Magway, Sittwe, Kyauk-phyu, Thandwe, Gwa, Taungu, Bago, Hmawbi, Pathein, Laputta, Loikaw, Hpa-an, Mawlamyine, Dawei and Kawthong. Furthermore, one of the three (3) new Doppler Weather Radars, it is already installed in 2015 and remaining two radars we expected to be completed middle of this year and the project will be complete by next year of 2017.

Myanmar has a long territory stretching north to south, with the Irrawaddy River running through the heart of the country. While Burmese is the largest ethnic group in the country, the country has many ethnic minorities. Myanmar joined ASEAN on July 23, 1997, together with Laos. Due to the isolationist policy adopted by the military government led by Ne Win which continued until 1988, the economic development of Myanmar fell far behind other ASEAN countries. Today, Myanmar is a republic, and President Thein Sein is the head of state.

  • Status of Transport Connectivity Including Transit Facilitation In
    New Delhi, India 19-20 November 2014 Aye Aye Hla,Director Ministry of Rail Transportation Myanmar Myanmar Profile National data Population - 52 millions Land Area - 676,578 sq.km Arable - 19.2% Coastal Line - 2800 km Road Length - 148690 km ESCAP Membership - 19 April 1948 Myanmar is a member of such sub-regional networks as the India- Myanmar-Thailand Highway, the ASEAN Mekong Basin Development Cooperation (AMBDC), the Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar (BCIM) Economic Corridor, the Mekong-Ginga Cooperation and the Mekong Sub- region. Myanmar Perspective Transport is a key to sustainable development and regional integration. Transport connectivity contributes towards the regional development, economic growth and fortifies relations among the neighbouring countries. Myanmar believes a stronger integrated partnership in the Asia Pacific region will greatly contribute to member countries and people as a whole. The development of the infrastructural network will not only expand the region market but also capture international markets. It plays the key role for the country’s economic growth and regional connectivity, integration and mutual benefits. Nowadays, most countries in the Asia have been connected through the Asian Highway Network and the Trans-Asian Railway Network, which will benefit coastal countries and small island developing states by means of maritime services. Myanmar Perspective Myanmar is in a geographically strategic position to greatly benefit both South Asia and Southeast Asia. Myanmar is now regarded as a newly emerging destination for business on account of its strategic geographical location, moderate climate fit for the cultivation of various crops, huge market size, and high production output at low costs.
