Description

The last census showed that around 7.35 million people live in Yangon region with 70% in the urban area. Yangon region has the highest densities of population per square kilometre in Myanmar (723 per sq. km). Population in Yangon is expected to grow exponentially with population densification expected to grow in line with other large cities in Asia. Yangon is the key economy of Myanmar, and the economic growth of the country is dependent on robust economic growth in Yangon. Yangon's economic growth is severely hampered by a lack of reliable electricity. It is already experiencing major traffic congestion with a pressing need to provide more public transport. Like other major cities it also has significant housing pressures, with pinch-points around access to low cost and affordable housing. Yangon is prone to seasonal flooding and also has significant risk of seismic activity. The area in question does not have strong supply of underground water, which is used in other areas of Yangon. Yangon Regional Government is seeking to develop 30,000 acres in Yangon Region in order to release space for new commercial and business activity, new housing and new government offices: essentially an extensive urban expansion. The aim is to drive 2,000,000 new jobs, particularly through the development of a new industrial corridor.
