Rohingyas are Arakanese Muslims. Whatever they are doing, they do in their country, Arakan. This has nothing to do with BD.

Myanmar Tourism Federation sets up rep office in Tokyo
October 7, 2015 by Thiha
THE Myanmar Tourism Federation (MTF) last week opened its second overseas representative office in Tokyo, following the launch of the first one in the US earlier this year.
“MTF now has a mutual agreement with the Japanese Public Diplomacy Association (PDA) with an aim to encourage the growth of Japanese travellers to Myanmar,” said Sai Kyaw Ohn, deputy minister at the Ministry of Hotels and Tourism Myanmar.
Phyoe Wai Yar Zar, joint secretary general at MTF and chairman of Myanmar Tourism Marketing, added: “By opening this office in Tokyo, we will promote destination Myanmar through PDA’s services.”
The move to attract more Japanese tourists to Myanmar is derived from MTF’s goal to support sustainable, long-term growth by attracting high-value, low-impact travellers.
“Japanese tourist arrivals are currently at 58,527 with a growth rate of 12 per cent so far this year. This means approximately US$1.8 billion of direct tourism income,” said Sai Kyaw Ohn.
According to MTF figures, international tourist arrivals from January to August this year reached nearly three million, a 50 per cent growth over the same period last year.

Angry Jamati jealous that Burma is bigger, more resource rich and much lower population density than his overpopulated about to be flooded delta swamp.
This is why this fool wants a "greater" Bangladesh if you look at his proposterous theories of N.E India and "Indian occupied Bengal" being integrated into Bangladesh.
Laughing at his desperate, delusional statements is the absolute best thing to do...and also the constant stream of pictures and developments of Burma. Well done @Aung Zaya.
Keep reminding this idiot @asad71 of the reality of the situation.
@asad71...!!?? let him shout what he want.. bro.. i also response just with a laugh whenever he post something idiotic here.. LOL

MIC forecasts Mandalay foreign investment boom

Foreign investment projected at US$12 billion

The country’s foreign investment is projected at US$12 billion for this fiscal year, Dr Aung Tun Thet, presidential economic adviser, told the Myanmar Global Investment Forum in Nay Pyi Taw.
The Myanmar Investment Commission member said: “The country has the potential for a massive inflow of foreign investment. Last fiscal year’s total foreign investment amounted to US$8.1 billion. This year will see more investment. It may reach US$12 billion. We welcome non-traditional investment. We accept investment in the media and entertainment sectors.”
Foreign investment is expected to rise if the November 8 election is completed successfully.
Dr Aung Thura, CEO of the Thura Swiss research and consulting firm, said: “The current foreign investment is just what is permitted. But businesses are still unable to start. Investment is not in cash. Investors will start businesses if there is a healthy environment after the election.”
Pyae Wa Tun, CEO of Parami Energy Group of Companies, said: “Whichever party wins the election must deal with many issues. For instance, taxes cannot be fully collected on goods imported through the borders. We must tackle such issues. Civil service reform is needed. The country needs investment in human resources if it is going to catch up with other nations. We need to develop small- and medium-sized enterprises. These issues need to be tackled whatever party comes to power.”

Wow 8 billion FDI and 12 billion projected for this year.
Great job to Myanmar!
What are the major investments going on and which countries are the sources?
India, Burma, Thailand and China must further increase the connectivity between them by using Burma as the crossroads.
Some news to provide heartburn to @asad71

Thz.. bro
Singapore is top in list of investment with approx $2B for Q2 of this year followed by Netherland with $430M (up from $302 M for the whole year) , India with approx $300M ( up from $208M) , Japan with $150M ...
Myanmar also attracted the new investors even from loas , Samoa , Maritius , Republic of Marshall Island..
China is surprisingly bottom of the list just with $53M but HK and Macau is top 6 and 8..
Hottest sectors are oil and gas , manufacturing and infrastructure..
Investments will see more from Thialand and Japan coz Dawei SEZ is also on track.. we also received over $500M via Thilawa SEZ which was inaugurated last 3 days..

Good good. I was half expecting China to be the biggest yearly investor (I think they are probably the biggest investor in accumulated amount).
Are relations between Myanmar and Thailand more improved now you feel? I remember back when I was in Singapore many years back and there was always some news story about the wary tension between the two countries.
India must invest more in Myanmar...but the trend is good now. I read that up to 2013 the total accumulated investment from India was something like 270 million USD into Myanmar....so now we are investing such amounts every year.
Myanmar must finally realise its unlocked potential! These will be exciting times for sure.
I was wondering looking at the UNCTAD info for Myanmar the figures seem off:
http://unctad.org/sections/dite_dir/docs/wir2015/wir15_fs_mm_en.pdf
Is this some difference in accounting or the figures from your article also include FII....or UNCTAD seems to classify greenfield investments seperately?
