In November 2005, the Myanmar government transferred its seat from Yangon to Naypyidaw. At present, the former capital of Yangon hosts 38 embassies. Although the government has been encouraging other nations to move their Embassies to Naypyidaw, the new capital is yet to host any embassies which all remain in Yangon. Other countries have ambassadors accredited to Myanmar, with most being resident in elsewhere, usually in either New Delhi or Bangkok.
