Yet this week Mr Thein Sein was welcomed to the White House, chatting with Barack Obama and soaking up the American president's praise for Myanmar's bold and fast-moving reforms. As our special report this week shows, Myanmar has undergone a remarkable transformation. Ruled by the generals, the country, which many know as Burma, was a blank space. Now it is finding its place again at a nexus between China, the Indian subcontinent and South-East Asia. The neighbours are pouring in with road- and port-building projects to reconnect Myanmar to its region. And now that they have lifted nearly all sanctions, Europeans and Americans are also excited, sizing up a country of 64m people that is rich in resources and market potential. The precursor to this was a profound change in Myanmar's politics under Mr Thein Sein. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini! Kembali
