The Union of Myanmar is focused on driving the national economy through the oil and gas industry. The multi-million investment in the Myanmar Offshore Supply Base (MOSB) to serve the drilling and production activities in the Bay of Bengal is our responsibility and effort to achieve that goal.
We are most happy and proud that both the federal government and the Mon state government fully back the new form of economy arising in the country. In partnering MOSB Ltd. their aim to bring a fresh inflow of infrastructural and economic developments to Mawlamyine and the rest of the country is being effectively fast-tracked.
We are optimistic and confident that the influx of foreign expertise and ideas for operations in the port and marine supply base will bring a host of economic benefits for everyone. The quickened pace of foreign equity coming in to support the oil and gas sector is also bound to accelerate the capital market growth. With sufficient investment interest and participation, it is highly probable that MOSB Ltd. will work towards public listing in the foreseeable future.
