Some good news from Myanmar. We are delighted to share this announcement that Thalun International School, one of our investee companies, has received full WASC accreditation. It's a great endorsement of the quality US-style education available to Thalun pupils in Yangon. It's a terrific achievement for such a young school and a testimony to School Director James Joubert and all the Thalun team.

We have just completed the second day since the military coup in Myanmar. There has been a flurry of announcements by the new regime, the deposed NLD, and foreign governments. Overall, the situation in Yangon remains calm and the streets quiet. We note a new line-up of ministers including several business-friendly faces. For Anthem Asia, Day Two has been one of again talking and listening to our staff and those of our portfolio companies as well as reaching out across our networks. Our message remains one of being patient and not rushing to make any drastic decisions. We hope for better days ahead.

The military has taken over here in Myanmar this Monday morning. Yangon is quiet. We are safe, but the Internet and mobile links are cut. We are focusing on ensuring our team and our portfolio companies are safe.

An important tracker of how step-by-step, year-by-year the corporate world in Myanmar is becoming more open. Congratulations to Vicky Bowman, MCRB & Yever.

The 2020 Report assesses information disclosure on the corporate websites of 260 large Myanmar companies, including listed, and public ones, and for the first time, includes all banks.
