This study examines the impact of landlockedness and corruption on economic growth of BIMSTEC, a bridge between blue economy and mountain economy, under panel data. It covers seven countries over 7 years, 2012-2018. The investigation conforms that the presence of landlockedness hampers economic growth rate. BIMSTEC has two landlocked economies: Nepal and Bhutan. Similarly, corruption reveals greasing in the wheel situation, and it will turn into sand in the wheel, when it crosses the threshold level|49 point corruption perception index. The results are robust under the pooled regression. The study is intact for boosting liberal governance, and easy access for landlocked states to the coast.
