Vice-Senior General Soe Win has called for immediate preparations for the Dawei Special Economic Zone (SEZ), which is set to receive investment from Russia. Speaking at a Central Committee meeting on Special Economic Zones on 11 March, he stressed the need to advance the project swiftly.


He also instructed that Myanmar, Thailand, and Japan engage in negotiations to formally resolve the dissolution of the Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) previously established for the project.


Soe Win stated that investment opportunities for the Dawei SEZ emerged following Junta Chief Min Aung Hlaing’s recent visit to Russia and Belarus, adding that rapid development is expected soon.
