Challenges faced in Myanmar
Ever since Myanmar's political reform in 2008, Myanmar has been experiencing robust and exponential economic growth.
Myanmar is one of the world’s fastest growing economy, with an annual GDP growth averaging at 8.73% from 1994 until 2017. With its large labour pool, abundant natural resources and low cost of living, setting up presence in the Myanmar market can be a strategic move for businesses who are looking into maximizing profit margins.
As a fast emerging market, Myanmar has gone through various political and economic reforms to improve the business infrastructure in the country. The government has also been ramping up its effort to increase FDI inflow in a move to boost its economic growth. This includes implementing new policies and providing greater tax incentives for foreign businesses.
