Burma Economic Watch
Burma Economic Watch is a periodical that aims to provide up-to-date and reliable data, analysis and commentary on the economy of Burma. Information on the Burmese economy is both difficult to obtain and notoriously unreliable. Comment and analysis is often only scarcely less so. Our aim is to make a modest contribution to improving each, and to encourage informed debate.
Burma Economic Watch is produced by an editorial team of scholars devoted to the study of Burma and its economy. Our team is Wylie Bradford, Sean Turnell and Alison Vicary.
