Bangladesh–China–India–Myanmar Forum for Regional Cooperation (BCIM)


 BCIM is a sub-regional organisation of Asian nations aimed at greater integration of trade and investment between the four countries.

 The multi-modal corridor will be the first expressway between India and China and will pass through Myanmar and Bangladesh.

 The advantages are envisaged to accrue from greater market access for goods, services and energy, elimination of non-tariff barriers, better trade facilitation, investment in infrastructure development, joint exploration and development of mineral, water, and other natural resources.

 BCIM covers China's Yunnan province, Bangladesh, Myanmar, and West Bengal in Eastern India through the combination of road, rail, water and air linkages in the region.

 The Kunming initiative developed into the current form of BCIM Forum.
