Overview

Myanmar is located in South East Asia bordering the People’s Republic of China on the North and North East, Laos on the East, Thailand on the South East, Bangladesh on the West, and India on the North West. It is also strategically located between South Asia and southeast Asia. More interestingly, Myanmar is sandwiched between the two most populous nations in the World– China, and India. Bangladesh, 5 times smaller in size with a population 3 times larger than Myanmar, is another of her neighbors. The former, unlike Myanmar, is not blessed with abundant natural resources, in addition to which she has the misfortune to be battered by natural disasters almost every year.
