Pandemic-Proofing South Korea?s Investment in Myanmar thediplomat.com

This year marks the 45th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between South Korea and Myanmar. Over the past few years of cooperation, the two countries have seen growing connections in all spheres; the ever-increasing South Korean investment in Myanmar clearly attests to this. South Korea is currently the sixth-largest investor in Myanmar, and its investment will likely continue under the banner of the New Southern Policy ? President Moon Jae-in?s signature foreign policy initiative ? which aims to elevate South Korea?s ties with ASEAN and its member states, including Myanmar.
