Overview of Author(s): Mathias Bak, [email protected] Reviewer(s): Matthew Jenkins, Transparency International Secretariat, Ondrej Cakl, Transparency International Czech Republic Date: 08 April 2019. Amended 22 November 2019 Myanmar has transformed since moving towards democracy. Anti-corruption is a priority and the government is working to implement an anti-corruption framework. This is at an early stage, but there are some promising initiatives. Nonetheless, the rule of law is weak, and systemic issues enable high levels of corruption and organised crime. Of particular concern is the influence of military-linked cronies and the military is still able to act with impunity. The fragility of the state and disputed state authority in Myanmar’s peripheries are also problems. Despite this, there seem to be genuine attempts to tackle corruption in some sectors.

  • Corruption in Myanmar
    Overview of corruption and anti- corruption in Myanmar Author(s): Mathias Bak, [email protected] Reviewer(s): Matthew Jenkins, Transparency International Secretariat, Ondrej Cakl, Transparency International Czech Republic Date: 08 April 2019. Amended 22 November 2019 Myanmar has undergone a significant transformation since the transition towards democracy. Anti- corruption has become a national priority, and the government has worked towards implementing an anti -corruption framework. This legal anti-corruption framework may be in a rudimentary stage, but adjustments are being made and relevant initiatives taken. Nonetheless, corruption is still rampant in Myanmar, rule of law is weak, and many of the systemic issues that enable corruption and organised crime are yet to be addressed. Of particular concern is the influence of military-linked cronies in various sectors, the continued ability of the military to act with impunity, the fragility of the state and the disputed state authority in Myanmar’s peripheries. Myanmar is therefore likely to continue to face challenges with high levels of corruption. In spite of this, there are trends that could be interpreted as genuine attempts to tackle corruption issues in some sectors.

  • Responses to Questions About the Justice Centres CFP Dated: 06/08/2019
    Responses to Questions about the Justice Centres CFP Dated: 06/08/2019 A Question The guidance note explains that applicants may apply to “operate” justice centres in one or multiple regions and states in Myanmar. We note that the regions, states and districts that MyJustice has identified are locations where justice centres or satellite offices already exist. Will successful candidates be expected to take over entire justice centre offices in these locations, even if they are managed by other organizations – e.g., hire all their lawyers, paralegals, support staff; and take over leases of their physical space? How will MyJustice consider proposals that do not plan to absorb existing justice centres in full or in part, or proposals to operate new justice centres in one or more of the locations indicated? Answer Depending on the relative strengths of applicant organisations, overlap in geographical coverage and the complementariness of proposed activities, MyJustice may accept multiple grantees intending to operate in the same region or state. Successful grantees will be free to determine whether to engage existing staff, assets or operations of any existing Justice Centres in consultation with those organisations. B Question If we set up the training for Ward & Village tract Administrators, are we able to do this training in Sagaing Region? Answer As stated in Section 2.3 of the CFP Guidance (page 9), applicants may propose additional locations near the regions/states indicated, so long as they can demonstrate that their proposal will deliver against the specified MyJustice results, and that there is a demonstrable need for the services offered.
