Pakistan, Myanmar Vow Cooperation in Religious Tourism, Cultural Exchanges

  • Delegation-Level talks in Islamabad on Monday saw Pakistan and Myanmar reinvigorate ties, reaffirming commitment to deepen multi-sectoral cooperation during discussions between Senator Mohammad Ishaq Dar and Than Swe.
  • A gap dating to May 2015 and 2012 persists, but Than Swe arrived on January 24 for a four-day visit, part of efforts to restore high-level engagement.
  • Both sides reviewed the full gamut of relations and signed a Memorandum of Understanding on Political Consultations between the Foreign Offices, covering religious tourism, people-to-people and cultural exchanges, trade, economy, science and academic linkages.
  • They agreed to advance capacity-building initiatives and pledged to strengthen coordination for consular assistance to nationals, including victims of scamming gangs, ahead of the 77th anniversary of diplomatic relations in 2026.
  • Invoking shared independence-era leaders Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah and General Aung San, both countries noted their century-long British colonial past, while Myanmar urged investors and said it was safe for foreigners.
