Nwe Oo, a senior attorney-at-law in Tilleke & Gibbins’ Myanmar office, and Sher Hann Chua, a consultant in Tilleke & Gibbins’ Myanmar office, address these issues and more in the Myanmar chapter of The Asia-Pacific Investigations Review 2018, a guide to the important issues in internal and government investigations across the Asia-Pacific, published by Global Investigations Review.
