Regional Round-Up: Myanmar Q4 2023 (Year in Review Edition)

Looking Back: 2023 and Gazing Into: 2024

Although the SAC extended the state of emergency for six months until February 2024, it is likely to maintain the current state for an unforeseeable future due to the ongoing escalation of armed conflicts nationwide. The escalation in fighting since October 2023, including in the main trade corridor between Myanmar and China, is likely to further challenge the turnaround of Myanmar’s economy.
