An investigation of ICT development in Myanmar

A theoretical framework with seven domains of expertise including 131 items associated with technologies and ICT professional knowledge and skills is used to examine the development of ICT in the nation of Myanmar. Data collected from 63 organizations spanning government, education, and private enterprise are analyzed to determine the importance of these items at present and within the next 5 years. The findings are compared with predictions made for technologically developed nations, findings from a previous study in Myanmar, and studies in other developing nations (Thailand and Vietnam). Overall, Myanmar is shown to be at an early stage of development with emphases mainly on the use of ICT for day‐to‐day operational activities. The findings contribute to filling the void of information available about ICT development in Myanmar and are highly relevant to interested organizations in the public and private sectors that are internal or external to Myanmar.
