Regional Round-Up: Myanmar Q4 2022 (Year in Review Edition)

Looking Back: 2022 and Gazing Into: 2023

Looking Back: 2022

After two years of the military coup, the State Administration Council (SAC) has made several changes in policy in the administrative and business sectors

Gazing into 2023

The national state of emergency was initially set to be lifted by 31 January 2023. The caretaker government led by the State Administration Council (SAC) would have then completed its two-year term and be required to transfer its powers to the National Defense and Security Council (NDSC) according to the Constitution.

However, it has been announced that the national state of emergency will be extended to another six months

It is highly likely that political instabilities in Myanmar will continue, increasing not only tension in the political landscape, but also negatively impacting the means and ways of doing business and investment in Myanmar.
