ASEAN Initiative Spurring Rebranded Burma

Category: Tourism, Posted:10 Jan 2011 | 06:00 am

It's like that classic line “I call it tomato, you call it to-mato” but here comes the country with two names.
Be it Burma or Myanmar, branded or rebranded, shaken or stirred.

For economists and entrepreneurs the country poses a great question mark as once political stability occurs and a free market approach takes place a veritable gold rush for businesses is likely to occur.
