I've been spending a lot of time in Myanmar over the past 3 years. While there is incredible progress on some fronts, corruption and asset grabbing by those in power is so entrenched that I'm pretty sure nothing will change as a result of this investigation, except perhaps removal of some data from public records.

The country is deeply in need of public revenue to fund the most basic public needs, like functional roads and sanitation, but vast amounts of the natural resource wealth are being misappropriated with no end in sight.
