Wild, wild East

Abstract: Abstract In the last twenty years, I have given thousands of presentations and briefings about the Asia-Pacific economies to senior executives of global multinationals as well as to government and business delegations from many countries worldwide. In these meetings I have been asked questions about most of the Asia-Pacific countries at some point, but in all this time, nobody had ever asked me about the Myanmar economy. It was so isolated from the global economy by the autarkic policies of its own repressive government as well as by international sanctions that it hardly existed in the minds of investors.
