Myanmar garment exports 'dire' because of US sanctions - Hla Hla Htay
Myanmar's garment exports declined again last year under the weight of US
sanctions, an industry group said, amid questions about whether the
measures will persuade the military regime to reform.
"Our garment exports are still going down because of the US sanctions.
There's been no recovery yet, even though we have tried to turn things
around," an official of the Myanmar Garment Manufacturers Association told
AFP.
"The situation is dire. We've made no improvement at all," he said,
speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to talk
to the media.
