Sean Turnell, a former economic policy advisor to Myanmar’s democratic government, recounts his 650-day imprisonment in Myanmar which he served after being wrongfully arrested in the aftermath of the February 2021 military coup. Drawing from his career as an economic analyst and professor, Turnell examines the economic challenges facing Myanmar’s junta four years into the civil war and discusses what policies the international community can take to improve the situation in Myanmar. Meghan Murphy, Schwarzman fellow at the Asia Society Policy Institute, moderates the conversation.
