With the intention of attracting investors from the US, the Myanmar Investment Outreach Business & Investment Forum will be held for the first time in June 2014, according to U Aung Naing Oo, Director General of the Directorate of Investment and Companies Administration (DICA).
The forum will discuss Myanmar’s investment laws and regulations to provide an overview of the penal and legal code surrounding the business environment as well as the investment opportunities in the country’s evolving sectors, said U Aung Naing Oo.
Organised by US-based Peninsula Press, the forum is mainly sponsored by local companies such as KBZ Bank, City Mart Holdings, Loi Hein, Delco Mining, Shwe Taung Development, Myanmar Citizens Bank, Green Construction Group and UMG.
According to Kathleen Delacy, manager of Peninsula Press for Southeast Asia Region, a newsletter with emphasis on Myanmar’s political and economic changes is soon to be published in over 160 countries.
