- Summary:
- "Developing countries throughout Asia, Africa, and Latin America are grappling with how to deal with China's rising economic influence -- particularly the multibillion-dollar development projects financed through China's Belt and Road Initiative. Myanmar, however, appears to be approaching foreign investment proposals with considerable caution. This report examines the framework the country is developing to promote transparency and accountability and to reserve for itself the authority to weigh the economic, social, and environmental impacts of major projects proposed by international investors, including China" -- Publisher's web site.
