The economic and political changes in Myanmar over the last two years, along with the Act East policy initiated by the Indian government, have provided impetus to the need for integrating one of the least developed regions of South Asia namely—India’s north eastern states, Bangladesh and Myanmar, which share borders with each other. The
book emphasises how greater trade in the sub-region can be a vehicle for economic integration and raise living standards of the inhabitants. It also highlights the challenges of cross-border connectivity, investments, infrastructure and logistics, and suggests policy options for governments in the sub-region.
