Abstract

Korean Abstract: 2015년부터 미얀마가 제2기 중점협력국으로 새롭게 선정되었다. 미얀마를 중점협력국으로 선정한 배경에는 서방세계의 경제제재 완화 이후 미얀마의 개방이 빠르게 진행되고 있고, 지정학적 요충지라는 점 이외에도 풍부한 자원보유와 향후 발전 잠재력이 크다는 점 등이 반영되었을 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 신규 중점협력국으로 선정된 미얀마를 대상으로 국가협력전략(CPS) 수립 시 고려해야 할 대상국의 기초 환경과 개발 수요, 분야별 개발 현황을 조사·분석하고, 우리나라의 비교우위와 전략적 협력 방향을 연구하여 주요 협력분야에 대한 지원방안을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위해 대상국 현황 및 개발전략·정책 문서, 개발지표 현황 관련 자료 등 관련 문헌을 광범위하게 조사하고, 수원국 정부 관련 부처 및 공여기관, 현지 사업 이행기관과 면담 조사를 실시하여 향후 협력전략 및 지원방안을 수립하기 위한 유용한 시사점을 도출하였다. 미얀마에 대한 개발협력전략은 기본적으로 한국 ODA의 차별화를 위한 원칙과 틀을 갖추고, 원조효과성과 관련된 국제원조규범에의 부합도를 제고하며, 한국 원조체제의 문제점을 해소하는 것이어야 한다. 이러한 점들을 반영하여 미얀마에 대한 CPS는 지역연구 및 기존 원조성과 분석, 지원 목표와 원칙, 지원 분야 및 이행수단, 포괄적 이슈, 성과관리 시스템 등을 핵심 구성요소로 하여 한국 ODA의 차별적인 특성과 국제원조규범을 반영하도록 작성되어야 한다. 한국의 경제개발 성공 경험을 단순히 경제성장률 제고의 의미로만 해석하지 말고 사회적 합의를 토대로 제도, 사회, 교육 등을 포함한 광의의 개념으로 이해해야 한다. (후략) English Abstract: 2015 Korean government selected Myanmar as a new Priority ODA Partner Country. As western countries has eased the economic sanctions, Myanmar has opened its economy and made important reforms, including FX system. In addition to its strategic geopolitical location, Myanmar has abundant resources and young population which are important factors for future development. Since Myanmar is newly selected, it is necessary to prepare Country Partnership Strategy(CPS). This study aims to provide the background information about Myanmar. As Myanmar is politically in the transition period, it is very important to understand the governance structure of Myanmar, including ODA implementing system. It is expected that National League for Democracy(NLD) will take over the political power next year. Economic liberalization is likely to be pursued more rapidly under NLD regime. Economic cooperation and investment from the western countries will increase, which will bring both more competition and more chance. Despite the political changes, the direction of economic policies is likely to be maintained. This research has reviewed the Myanmar's national economic development plans and economic indicators in order to figure out the 'needs' of Myanmar. Since the official documents occasionally do not reflect the true needs of Myanmar, the authors interviewed many local professionals, including Myanmar's related ministries, donor agencies and local implementing institution. Basically, Myanmar's Country Partnership Strategy should adhere to the rules and the framework that differentiates Korea’s ODA. The comparative advantage of Korea needs to be reflected. Also, the international norms, such as ownership,alignment, harmonization, mutual accountability, and managing for results should be considered. CPS should be compact and follow the guideline of International Development Cooperation Committee of Korea which emphasizes the priority areas of each CPS. Korea needs to take the role as a ladder builder in ODA. Myanmar also wants to benchmark Korea's economic development. However, successful experiences of Korea's economic development should not be interpreted in a narrow sense. It does not mean just economic growth, rather it contains institutional capacity, education, and social cohesion.
