About 5.7 billion U.S. dollars of investment from over 70 foreign enterprises have entered Myanmar's Mandalay region so far since the regional investment committee was founded in 2017, Xinhua reported.

The investments went into the manufacturing, tourism, power sectors and other services in Mandalay region.

Investors are invited to invest in the region's culture-based tourism sector as it is a home for over 300 intangible cultural heritage assets including the gold embroidery business and traditional arts and crafts, Mandalay Region Chief Minister U Zaw Myint Maung was quoted as saying.
