Investment in Myanmar's construction sector touched USD 38 million as of June this year, and is expected to increase further. According to official figures, Myanmar's local companies alone have invested 713 billion Kyats, while foreign companies from across Asia and other regions continue to announce their investment plans.
Mega construction projects such as Yangon 2040, Thilawa SEZs, airports, highways are all underway. Along with it are questions and doubts such as - Is there enough supply of construction material in Myanmar to support the huge demand? Since Myanmar sits on an highly active earthquake zone, are the construction companies adhering to seismic resistant building norms?
