Executive Summary: "In January 2012, an Asia Society delegation
visited Burma/Myanmar to engage in a Track
II dialogue with the Myanmar Development
Resources Institute (MDRI), a newly created,
independent think tank based in Yangon. The
MDRI participants in the dialogue include
advisors with a mandate to provide policy
advice in the areas of political, economic,
and legal affairs to President Thein Sein and
his government. The goal of this informal
dialogue is to establish an ongoing channel
of communication between experts from
both countries and to explore opportunities
to advance U.S.–Myanmar relations during a
particularly fluid and fragile period of transition
in Myanmar.
The Asia Society group includes specialists
in the areas of political affairs, rule of law,
democracy building, economic development,
and environmental sustainability. In addition to
the Track II meetings with presidential advisors,
our group held in-depth discussions with senior
officials in the following ministries: Foreign
Affairs, Culture, Commerce, Environmental
Conservation and Forestry, Health, Science
and Technology, Education, and Information.
Our group also met with business leaders;
members of civil society; representatives from
the National League for Democracy (NLD),
including Aung San Suu Kyi; and a wide array
of community activists, including minority
nationalities.
This effort builds on the work carried out
by Asia Society?s Task Force on U.S. Policy
toward Burma/Myanmar, as well as seminal
meetings convened by Asia Society in New York
in September 2011 that brought together for
the first time policy makers from Myanmar, the
United States, and the broader international
community to informally discuss prospects for
reform in Myanmar.
This report provides our assessment of
the nature of the changes that are under
way in Myanmar and the challenges and
vulnerabilities that the country faces. We
conclude by recommending measures that the
United States can undertake at this critical
moment to encourage, support, and advance the
institutionalization of sustainable democracy in
Myanmar."
