The successful planning and implementation of the census activities, followed by the timely release of the provisional results in August 2014 and now the main results in May 2015, is a clear testimony of the Government’s resolve to publish all information collected from respondents in accordance with the Population and Housing Census Law No. 19 of 2013. It is now my hope that the main results both Union and each of the State and Region reports will be interpreted correctly and will effectively inform the planning and decision-making processes in our quest for national and sub-national development. The census structures put in place, including the Central Census Commission, Census Committees and officers at the State/Region, District and Township levels and the International Technical Advisory Board (ITAB), a group of 15 experts from different countries and institutions involved in censuses and statistics internationally, provided the requisite administrative and technical inputs for the implementation of the census. -

The Transformation of Weaving in Myanmar from the Tradition to the Modernity and Its Impact
The Transformation of Weaving in Myanmar from the Tradition to the Modernity and Its Impact Yan Naing Lin1 Abstract Myanmar traditional handicrafts such as silversmith, goldsmith and weaving suffered eclipse under the penetration of the western culture, especially, the weaving experienced the great challenge by the domination of the western textiles under the Luissez Faire policy practiced by the British. Together with the exhortation of Myanmar nationalist leaders of YMBA in order to uplift the traditional weaving, Saunders Weaving School came to be emerged under the endeavor of Mr. Saunders. He intended to produce more clothes by means of modernized looms in order to uplift the social life of the weavers and therefore he attempted to transform the conventional weaving craft and to spread it to the whole country. As a result of this effort, many weaving schools came to be developed alongside many private weaving factories throughout the country. Also the Saunders Weaving Institute helped to the development of Lun-yar-kyaw Acheik by combination of traditional methods and modernized instruments. This paper is intended to explore how the weaving in Myanmar continued to develop, survive and how the traditional method was transformed into the modernity. Introduction The weaving craft which had been existed since the Pyu period in Myanmar came to be developed successively throughout the ages and then it was prosperous together with the combination of the weaving craft of Manipur. Together with the development of Lun-yar kyaw Acheik , Amarapura Township became a centre of weaving industry from the Amarapura period to the Yatanabon Period. During the British colonial period, Myanmar weaving industry faced the great challenge by the foreign textiles which were imported under the policy of free trade. -

Assesst Myanmar EPA Report
Foreword Like its neighbors in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS), Myanmar has been trying to reconcile the demands of economic growth with the integrity of its physical environment. Despite its great natural resources and progress made at reversing some decline in forest cover, there remain many challenges for the country’s environmental stability, from soil degradation to water quality. This environmental performance assessment (EPA) encompasses seven key environmental concerns: forest resources, biodiversity, land degradation, management of water resources, waste management, air pollution from mobile sources, and climate change. The prime purpose of the second Strategic Environmental Framework (SEF II), initiated in 2003, is to promote sustainable development in the GMS through the creation of a national and subregional environmental performance assessment system and the building of capacity to implement such a system. Supported by a detailed and transparent database, the EPA report draws a picture of principal environmental trends, assesses the degree of success in achieving specific targets, and makes key recommendations. In this way, EPA assists the process of policy adjustment and becomes a tool for public accountability, as well as a device for the wider GMS to implement on a subregional picture. This national EPA was prepared under the guidance of a national coordination committee. Like all assessments of performance, assessment of environmental performance demands a retrospective look at what has happened, not what might happen in the future. Here, the present EPA draws on the “P-S-R” model pioneered by Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). In the model, indicators are chosen to capture the state of the concern being studied, the underlying pressures, and the responses, to counter the pressures and improve the state. -
