Description
Due to the establishment of the Special Economic Zone in Thilawa, this first phase targets improvement of logistics - specifically port development, in order to accommodate the growing development of the Thilawa district. The project is intended to develop necessary infrastructure in the Thilawa area in order to promote foreign direct investment and contribute to job creation and economic development of the Greater Yangon area. The three main aspects of this project relate to the development of the port terminal, electric power facilities, and consulting services.
