SECURITY would be considered as the first priority when 29 industrial zones in Yangon Region are upgraded, said Yangon Region Chief Minister U Phyo Min Thein.
He made the remarks at a press conference held by the Yangon Region Investment Committee on Wednesday.
“Security will be our first priority in the upgrade works. We will try to improve security by installing CCTVs and with the help of other technology,” he said.
In addition, squatters in industrial zones will have to be relocated, he said.
The upgrade will include utilities such as supply of purified water, electricity, transportation, and sewage and waste management. “Infrastructure will be a vital part of the industrial zone upgrade, as we will have to deal with the growing electricity needs, road transportation difficulties, and insufficient water supply,” said U Phyo Min Thein. “The Thilawa Special Economic Zone has been developed along international standards, with better infrastructure. It should serve as the model for upgrading the zones,” he added.
Earlier, the zones that will be upgraded were taken over by the Construction Ministry and now, they will be handled by the Yangon Region government.
Yangon Region is aiming to transform itself into a livable economic hub through sustainable development and heritage conservation.
