Myanmar: 13 investors respond to CSOs' call to engage with Japanese companies that reportedly continue to finance projects linked to military

They also did not disclose details about their engagement with the companies, including whether they were engaging at all. The four companies are involved in four projects in Myanmar: Thilawa Special Economic Zone (SEZ) development, Yetagun gas project, Landmark Project (Yoma Central Project), and Thilawa Area Port Terminal Operation Project.
