The authors of the chapter on Myanmar are currently in Austria and in the United States of America. Nor was it always possible to get an author from the country covered. There was a trade-off in this decision: in some countries, researchers must sanitize their remarks under direct or indirect pressure from government and/or colleagues. The intention was to provide greater local flavor and insight, greater familiarity with local events as covered by local media, and access to information in the first language of the researcher. My first decision as editor of this book was to seek out local prestigious authors rather than international experts established in English-speaking countries.
It will also interest the layperson wishing to expand his or her knowledge of this part of the world. It is a first step that may bring the reader to pursue deeper and more specific research. It is aimed at businesses looking to expand into the region and at academics interested in international business and in economics of the region. This book is an introduction to the ASEAN Economic Community and the economies of Southeast Asia.
