Dear Friends, Investors and Partners,
Please find the latest update from the Yoma Central construction site below.
We are proud to launch this month a brand new Yoma Central website. We invite you to visit us here, to discover new dimensions to our project and how this fully integrated city quarter at the heart of Downtown Yangon will foster a thriving community of business, lifestyle and cultural interests in Myanmar.
We will also use the website platform to publish regular stories, profiles and project updates. So, if you haven’t already, we can recommend following us on social media to stay up to date with all the latest news and feature articles. You can also find links for our Facebook and LinkedIn page.
As always, if you have any questions feel free to get in touch. We would love to hear from you!
