The Burmese Spring

I delivered a lecture in the country in December 2009. At that time, one had to be careful, given the government?s sensitivities, even about how one framed the country?s problems ? its poverty, lack of rural productivity, and unskilled workforce. Now caution has been replaced by a sense of urgency in dealing with these and other challenges, and by awareness of the need for technical and other forms of assistance. (Relative to its population and income, Burma is one of the world?s smallest recipients of international assistance.)
