Influence of Kela Canal Construction on Myanmar

In terms of physical geography, digging canals will undoubtedly destroy the ecological environment of Kela isthmus and cause vegetation damage. From the humanistic and social point of view, digging canals will inevitably lead to a large number of engineering immigrants in Myanmar, which will cost a lot, and this group will also produce certain social problems, which should not be underestimated.

In terms of economic development, the construction of canals can create employment opportunities in Myanmar. At that time, convenient transportation and busy canal industry could also promote the surrounding economic development and form a number of cities developed by traffic conditions, oil refining industry and tourism.
