Abstract
Burma seems to be emerging at long last from twenty years of economic stagnation and chaos. This is at least in part the result of an influx of loans and grants from abroad and of the economic and organizational reforms carried out in 1976 and 1977 with the advice of the World Bank. Politically, Burma has been trying very hard to cope with its long time insurgency and drug-trafficking problems. However, the government seems confident that the country's political and socio-economic problems are no threat to its continuing authority. Ne Win's retirement from the presidency only reflected a cosmetic change in Burmese politics. Ne Win is still at the helm and appears determined to stamp his imprint on the country and make it indelible.
