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

Further, two other investors stated that they were already engaging with companies that were not included in our letter but regarding Myanmar

On the other hand, Japanese investors, with one exception, sent us feedback that did not correspond to our request, such as an explanation of the investor’s human rights policy. 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.
