Reforms since 2010 have paved the way for Myanmar's reintegration into the international
community, after having been isolated from a large part of the global economy for many years.
Consequently, real GDP growth has been rising; it was estimated at 5.9% in 2011/12 and 6.4% in
2012/13. Myanmar's per capita GDP was around US$900 at the end of March 2012.
