The temple was reconstructed in the 19th century by Tan Tock Seng and Tan Kim Seng, highly respected personalities in the history of Singapore. The entrance inside the temple is guarded by the statues of two imposing lions, symbols of strength and fertility in Asian culture. At the temple gates, “door gods” provide further protection against evil spirits, purifying temple visitors from malignant energies. In front of the altar is the statue of Ma Po Cho, flanked by statues of the Protector of Life and the God of War.

The current resource development in Myanmar

A country with potential

For a very long time Myanmar has been a country who has been in economic and political isolation. However this situation are changing because today there are indications that economic growth is increasingly possible in this region. Myanmar could very well turn out to be one of the most spectacular performers in the Asian region if they could find a way to optimize its resources. There are a few areas which has been identified as the most viable options such as the strategic geographical location which Myanmar enjoys between some of the emerging giants in the region and many people are in agreement that Myanmar will also benefit from the current integration process in Asia. The population of Myanmar are increasingly youthful and this provides Myanmar with an effective labor force which are likely to attract foreign investment.

Valuable resources

Myanmar actually possesses various types of natural resources and it has a reasonably competitive agricultural development program. Then they have the ability to generate renewable energy and in particular hydropower. Myanmar are becoming increasingly popular for the foreign investor because of the investment opportunities which exists in various sectors such as telecommunications and also in the tourism industry. In order to make the best of the available resources it is vital that effective long-term planning be done in order to ensure that the current sources remain sustainable and that they will continue to provide benefits to this country.

Currently Myanmar is still a very poor country

Regardless of all the potential which exists in Myanmar it is still one of the very poorest countries in the Asian region and the government will have to overcome many challenges in order to bring about real and lasting change. Although this situation are no longer as desperate as it used to be in previous decades a lot of work has to be done in order to sustain the current development momentum. This is exactly why it is necessary to do an accurate analysis of the available resources in Myanmar and then to devise a long-term plan that will ensure maximum growth that can be maintained over many decades thereby allowing Myanmar to develop as much as possible and to become a serious competitor with in the Asian region.

Myanmar is receiving a lot of attention

In 2011 a special report has been released where in most of the opportunities which are available in Myanmar have been thoroughly investigated. It was during this time that the country initiated some significant economic and political reforms and that is why the 2011 report endeavor to examine the strengths and weaknesses of Myanmar and to determine the specific risks and other challenges which will have to be considered when an investment in Myanmar is considered. It has however become abundantly clear that there are many opportunities and with a substantial investment very lucrative profits may be possible and the rewards of such an investment could possibly be extended over several decades. It may however be best to partner with local entrepreneurs which are more familiar with the opportunities that exists in Myanmar. Read more!

Strategies on Land usage in Myanmar

Traditionally Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, had a secondary level of land use for agriculture, with most inhabitants experiencing sub si stance farming for their own families and community. Little else was done on an organised basis although the country became famous for it's natural wealth of rubies. Whilst rubies may arouse thoughts of fabulous jewellery, anyone who has seen a laser scanner in use at a shop or market will know that rubies have a rather more prosaic value. The government of Myanmar is presently conducting a resource audit to establish just what is beneath and on the surface of the earth in it's farming and agricultural land but also in the highlands and mountains. What ever todays world financial climate brings tomorrows problems will need joined up thinking a, if the Country is to prosper and b, if the people are going to prosper.

Commercial and industrial behemoths stride the globe placing pressure, upward pressure, on prices and physical pressure on the land. Consider the Amazon region of Brazil, until relatively recently the Amazon basin was virgin forest. Flyover now and many millions of hectares are under agriculture producing ethanol producing vegetation and soya beans to feed the World Wide demand for reductions in the carbon footprint of entire nation states and the dietary requirements of populations seeking dairy free foods.

Industrial development in Myanmar is, of course, essential and necessary to propel the nation into the business league of rapidly growing nations. Industrial expansion requires land, Myanmar has land in plentiful supply, but Government, and populations may resist an industrial land grab, or simply if the price escalates rapidly as people see a Brazilian style land grab coming to Myanmar then economics may halt that progress. Do we want rape of forests, intensive farming driving indiginous people off the land, as happened there. Sensible management must surely prevail. Arguments such as these will be in the mind of those who have ordered the Resources (Land) audit.

With the prospect of such pressure having a downward effect, or backwards even, it is essential to have an alternative plan of action. With the assurance that Land will always be there, as will resources beneath the ground, and as long as they are left there they will not  depreciate but will conversely appreciate in value, land use can stay pretty much as it is.  Wisdom may suggest that industrial growth, expansion, and with it land use will gather pace.  With Industrial infrastructure comes population growth, demand for housing, demand for intensified food production, mining of natural resources on a major scale, transportation and processing, national wealth and prestige.

Proven wealth in metals such as lead, gold, copper, plus coal and lignite, and precious stones, rubies, as mentioned, and sapphires. Proven wealth in potential growing land, that if properly managed will feed the population expansion and people across the globe. These are matters of great significance, so however, is tourism. Tourism brings Dollars and Pounds Sterling and every other currency of note right into the countrys who encourage cultural tourism and holidaying visitors from around our shrinking world. There are vast opportunities whatever  the proponents and their adversaries have to say. One thing is certain. Land will always be there, it is a fixed asset, it has immeasurable value, not least to the people who live on it.
