INTERNATIONAL MINING MYANMAR 2016
Myanmar is now seeing real and significant transformations to its politics and economy and is making the reforms necessary to open up the country to the world; including in relation to its mining law and environment for new mining investment.To coincide with this positive trend, the secondInternational Mining Myanmar Conference, hosted by the Myanmar Federation of Mining Association (MFMA), will be held on 14th/15thOctober 2016 at the Myanmar Event Park, Yangon. The conference will run during the Mining Myanmar 2016 exhibition at the same venue, organised by our partners BES and Allworld Exhibitions.
Momentum in the country is again building and there have been a couple of new Exploration Licences issued to foreign companies so there is growing interest and investor confidence. The government is also in the process of drafting a new Mining Law which is expected to be much more investor friendly; and is due to be finalised by April/May, so the October conference will be an ideal opportunity to find out the latest news on this as well as progress with existing projects.
The conference will again last a day and a half and will focus on three main areas – government, legislation and development potential; existing projects and mines; and technology, transportation, equipment and contractors. We are seeking good quality presentations in all three of these areas. Interested potential speakers should send a short abstract of 100 words to Paul Moore paul@im-mining.com or John Chadwick john@im-mining.com; and there are also sponsorship opportunities associated with the conference.
