Negotiations over an agreement on investment promotion and
protection between Myanmar and Singapore have started, according to
Directorate of Investment and Company Administration (DICA) Director
General U Aung Naing Oo.
“During the last 4 or 5 years, Singapore has been the top investor in
Myanmar and thus it is a country with which we have a strong investment
relationship. The objectives of the agreement are to fully protect
bilateral investments, to avoid obstacles in doing business, to provide
more investor rights and to ensure smooth operations. In addition, it
aims to avoid damages as a result of the nations’ policies and programs.
By signing such an agreement, investments between the two countries can
be safely made.” U Aung Naing Oo said at a press conference held at
DICA office in Yangon.
After an initial meeting between Myanmar and Singapore on August 7-8, the second meeting is scheduled to be held in early October, he said.
“We agreed with Singapore to finalise the discussions by the end of 2017,” he added.
Yearly permitted investments by Singapore in Myanmar are US$ 418 million in 2012-13, US$ 2.3 billion in 2013-14, US$ 4.3 billion in 2014-15, US$ 4.25 billion in 2015-16, US$ 1.83 billion in 2016-17 and US$ 1.05 billion in 2017-18 (up to July).
Meanwhile, similar agreements are under way between Myanmar and the EU as well as Hong Kong.
“Negotiations with EU have been completed. EU is now making internal discussions with the negotiated outcomes. It is also being discussed within the ministries on the Myanmar side,” U Aung Naing Oo said.
Subsequently, legal experts from each side will negotiate further to include legal opinions and compatibility with existing laws. Finally, we will submit to the Cabinet for approval. After finishing all the procedures in 2017, we expect to be able to sign the agreement with the EU in early 2018.” he said.
Currently, Myanmar has signed similar agreements with China, India, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, Israel, Kuwait, Japan and South Korea.
A draft investment promotion and protection agreement has been shared with Bangladesh and Russia but negotiations are still at very early stages. Meanwhile, Myanmar has also signed a trade and investment promotion and incentive agreement with Indonesia.

伊江樹報導8月10日出版的《緬甸之光》報發表了一篇署名文章,對緬甸的投資前景作了樂觀的估計。該文章的大致內容如下:
緬甸位在經濟發展最快的東南亞地區及世界兩大經濟強國之間,交通樞紐地位的優勢十分明顯。而且自然資源、人力資源都非常豐富。目前人口比例中,能從事勞動生產的人口占了絕大多數。這些都是吸引外國投資者的良好條件。
在前任政府的最後一個財政年度2015—2016年時,進入緬甸的外資金額達到94.8億美元。 2016—2017財政年度時則由於政府更迭,一些政策有待改革整頓,故進入的外資金額有所降

據商務部數據顯示,服裝出口總額超過3.8億美元,直到今年6月份,比去年增加1億美元。去年同期出口額超過2.78億美元。上個財政年度裡,約33%的出口到日本,德國為25%,南韓為25%,美國為2.4%,中國為2.4%。今年出口歐盟有所增加,雖然美國給予緬甸一般的優惠計劃,但並不影響服裝出口。緬甸服裝協會表示,正在談判最惠國待遇(MFN)地位和減稅。協會主席Myint Soe說,我們呼籲政府力求確保服裝業的最惠國待遇。我們希望稅收低於5%。

Myanmar’s
least developed states and regions have seen no new investment
proposals despite tax incentives having been released this year in a
bid to attract foreign and local businesses in those areas.
The country’s poorest areas have seen little of the billions of US dollars of foreign investment flowing into the country in recent years because of their lack of infrastructure, high logistics costs and ongoing ethnic conflicts.
“No proposal for other regions and states has been received by the office. I think they [investors] care about production and logistical costs more than tax exemptions,” U San Myint, Deputy Director General of the Directorate of Industry and Company Administration (DICA), said.
“Yangon is the main business hub of the country with cheaper logistics costs, so most proposals go to Yangon.”

logistics startup Kargo has won “Seedstars Yangon 2017”, the Myanmar
leg of the global startup competition “Seedstars World”.
Kargo will now head to Switzerland to participate in a 3-day boot camp with international mentors and investors and has a chance to win up to $1 million in equity investment at the annual Seedstars Summit.
“Winning Seedstars Yangon gives us unparalleled access to the Seedstar network of investors, both regionally and globally, in particular at the Seedstars Summit in Geneva in March 2018, as well as the opportunity to win $500k of Seedstar's own fund. But it's also terrific exposure, both through media and across the local and regional start-up scene,” George Oliver, CBO of Kargo, told Myanmar Business Today.

在本專欄首篇文章即指出,禁止外資從事貿易行為 (trading) 是緬甸政府的一貫政策。在外資公司設立過程中,需要簽署一張聲明 (undertaking),承諾不會從事貿易行為。不過這樣的政策近年有些許調整,值得外資注意。
為國家發展過程需要,緬甸政府有限度開放外資參與特定行業的貿易行為(包含進出口)。根據緬甸商務部2015年11月11日發布的96號通知,以及2016年7月7日的56號通知,緬外合資企業
(Joint Venture) 允許從事以下五類商品之貿易: 1. 化肥; 2. 種子; 3. 殺蟲劑; 4. 醫療器械; 5.
建築材料。就醫療器械及建築材料之具體清單,商務部亦在2016年12月20日公佈的85號通知,定有規定。

local and foreign companies have submitted investment proposals for

Puma
Energy Asia Sun (PEAS), majority owned by oil company Puma Energy,
opened its $92 million petroleum product storage facility at the
Thilawa industrial port, as it seeks to consolidate its position in the
fuel-hungry developing market.
The country's “largest” and “most modern” refined products import terminal will enable ships carrying up to 50,000 tones of petroleum products to unload directly at the facility via Thilawa's river port, a crucial juncture for Myanmar's development.
“This is an opportunity for us [PESA] to connect Myanmar and the fuel needs of the country with an international system, so the principle benefits will be the fact that we can bring in competitively priced supply into the country,” David Holden, General Manager of Puma Energy Asia Sun, told Myanmar Business Today.

5月9日據緬甸商務部消息:截止目前本財年木姐口岸的貿易總額與上財年同期相比減少了2000萬美元。
統計數據顯示:截至目前木姐口岸的貿易總額為2.75億美元,而上財年同期的貿易總額為2.96億美元。
緬甸商務部部務委員欽孟倫表示:“造成木姐口岸貿易總額減少的主要原因是出口方面的減少,出口之所以會出現大幅下降的原因是蔗糖出口量減少了20000噸左右。”

It follows the success of the system at shipping ports and the international airport in Yangon region, he added. The government has been trialling the system at 10 locations in Yangon including ports along the Yangon River and commodity checking gates at the Yangon International airport.
The system was developed with technical and financial assistance worth $40 million from the Japanese government’s international development arm, the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). It automatically records information on imports and exports using specialist computer software.
Technicians are planning to add updates to enable the system to be able to recognise which customs channel, red, yellow or green, the goods are passing through. It will be able to automatically calculate the taxes and print the release orders for goods in the green channel.
There are plans to extend the system to the Muse trading gate in Shan state, at the border with China, and the Tatchileik crossing at the Thai border. Officials say MACCS minimises illegal trade and prevents backlogs of shipping containers.
Under the NLD government more than K10.9 billion worth of contraband has been seized across the country, including K5.26 billion from regions and states outside of Yangon.
