- Myanmar has been a fully-fledged member of ASEAN since July 1997 and agreed to the implementation of the ASEAN Free Trade Area in January 1998. During the implementation of the AFTA tariff reduction goals and other objectives, the ASEAN countries are likely to face the opportunities and challenges. Myanmar also would have to face the challenges in the implementation of the economic reforms towards the direction of the ASEAN Free Trade Area (2015). In order to achieve the goals of AFTA, Myanmar needs to make some preparation in the common sectors of the promoting of their manufacturing sectors and export trade, enhancing SMEs competitiveness, and also integrating the trading activities of co-operatives and private entrepreneurs by inviting the foreign direct investment.
