  • (BRI) in Myanmar
    MYANMAR POLICY BRIEFING | 22 | November 2019 Selling the Silk Road Spirit: China’s Belt and Road Initiative in Myanmar Key points • Rather than a ‘grand strategy’ the BRI is a broad and loosely governed framework of activities seeking to address a crisis in Chinese capitalism. Almost any activity, implemented by any actor in any place can be included under the BRI framework and branded as a ‘BRI project’. This allows Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and provincial governments to promote their own projects in pursuit of profit and economic growth. Where necessary, the central Chinese government plays a strong politically support- ive role. It also maintains a semblance of control and leadership over the initiative as a whole. But with such a broad framework, and a multitude of actors involved, the Chinese government has struggled to effectively govern BRI activities. • The BRI is the latest initiative in three decades of efforts to promote Chinese trade and investment in Myanmar. Following the suspension of the Myitsone hydropower dam project and Myanmar’s political and economic transition to a new system of quasi-civilian government in the early 2010s, Chinese companies faced greater competition in bidding for projects and the Chinese Government became frustrated. The rift between the Myanmar government and the international community following the Rohingya crisis in Rakhine State provided the Chinese government with an opportunity to rebuild closer ties with their counterparts in Myanmar. The China-Myanmar Economic Corridor (CMEC) was launched as the primary mechanism for BRI activities in Myanmar, as part of the Chinese government’s economic approach to addressing the conflicts in Myanmar.

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 my hope that the main census results will be interpreted correctly and will effectively inform the planning and decision-making processes in our quest for national development. The census structures put in place, including the Central Census Commission, Census Committees and Offices at all administrative 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.

  • First Standard Allocation (2021) Strategy Paper
    First Standard Allocation (2021) Strategy Paper DEADLINE: Tuesday, 1 June 2021 (09:00am Yangon time) Allocation Summary This document lays the strategy to allocating funds from the Myanmar Humanitarian Fund (MHF) First Standard Allocation in response to the protracted humanitarian crises in Myanmar, in line with the Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) 2021. The allocation will address the underfunded situation of humanitarian requirements. By 20 April 2021, only 12.5 per cent of the HRP 2021 requirements had been met1. Looking at the most underfunded sectors as per HRP requirements, Education in emergencies (EiE) has not been funded yet, followed by water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) with 1.3 per cent of requirements met; and shelter, non-food items and camp coordination and camp management (Shelter/NFI/CCCM) with 1.7 per cent reached. This standard allocation will make US$10 million available to support coordinated humanitarian assistance and protection, covering displaced people and other vulnerable crisis-affected people in Chin, Rakhine, Kachin and Shan states and the south-eastern part of Myanmar.2 COVID-19 related actions will be mainstreamed throughout the response to the humanitarian needs. In areas identified by the HRP, additional emergency response for people with humanitarian needs as a consequence of the new context since 1 February 2021 will be considered, as per needs assessment and analysis provided during the prioritization process. Additional emergency response beyond the areas indicated in the HRP 2021, particularly urban and peri-urban areas, as a consequence of the developments since 1 February 2021, will not be included under this allocation.

  • China in Burma: the Increasing Investment of Chinese Multinational Corporations in Burma’S Hydropower, Oil &Gas, and Mining Sectors
    China in Burma: The increasing investment of Chinese multinational corporations in Burma’s hydropower, oil &gas, and mining sectors. Burma Project September 2007 Introductory research conducted by the Burma Project over the past three months has found more than 26 Chinese multinational corporations (MNCs) involved in more than 62 hydropower, oil & gas, and mining projects in Burma. The projects vary from small dams completed in the past decade to planned dual oil and gas pipelines across Burma to Yunnan province announced this year. Detailed information about many of these investments is not made available to affected communities or the general public, and we hope that the information here will stimulate additional discussion, research, and investigation into the conduct of Chinese MNCs in Burma. Amidst the recent attention to China’s moves to secure energy and resources throughout the world, Burma (also known as Myanmar) 1 has too often been overlooked. The Southeast Asian country is rich in natural resources, from dense forests and untouched rivers to vast untapped reserves of minerals, oil, and natural gas. Ruled by one of the world’s most notoriously brutal military regimes since 1962, 2 Burma exemplifies the corruption, misuse of resources, and environmental devastation of the “resource curse.” 3 Many western governments have imposed trade and investment sanctions on Burma, which has resulted in the departure of many western corporations; notable exceptions include Total of France and Chevron of the US. Meanwhile, as many Asian countries have begun to move outside their own territories in search of natural resources and energy, Burma has been a top destination.
