Abstract: Myanmar is at a critical juncture in time. A shift in the country’s economic policies has taken place since 2012, orienting the country towards a more market led mechanism. The telecommunications sector has undergone significant liberalization, with two international operators being granted licenses to compete with the incumbent. The incumbent too has contracted outside expertise and is investing a significant amount of funds towards improving their services. While the liberalization of the market is a step towards the right direction, it is essential that regulatory best practices are encouraged to facilitate welfare gains to all. However, one size fits all policies may not be the panacea in finding optimal solutions.
