Myanmar


I am pleased to welcome you to the official Website of the Permanent Mission of the Union of Myanmar to the United Nations in New York.

Cooperation with the United Nations is the cornerstone of Myanmar Foreign Policy. Myanmar has keen interest in the work of he United Nations and has been actively participating in various organs of bodies of the United Nations. Myanmar has served as Chairman of the First Committee during the Millennium Assembly. Myanmar also chairs the Special and Political and Decolonization Committee (Fourth Committee), one of the Main Committees of the General Assembly at its current 59th session. Myanmar is also currently on the Governing Body of the United Nations Environment Progtamme (UNEP) as well as on the Executive Board of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF). Myanmar will also become a member of the Commission on Social Development starting from 1 January 2005. With its strong belief in multilateralism, the Permanent Mission of the Union of Myanmar will continue to be actively involved in important works of the United Nations.

This Website is designed to serve as an official source of information about the Union of Myanmar with special focus on the Myanmar’s views and positions on various issues before the United Nations. You may also enter into the world of information about Myanmar through the door of this site, which contains many useful links to other related sites.

In addition, the website also provides business information as well as visa and consular information, which will be of great use for both Myanmar citizens residing abroad and for those wishing to pay a visit to or do business in Myanmar. I am hopeful that the information provided will also facilitate their works in dealing with consular matters.

However, please note that this website is still in its nascent and in the process of further construction and improvement. I hope that the website will be able to serve your needs better over time and the information provided will help you understand more about the reality of Myanmar.
