Manufacturers, sellers and others involved in the supply chain must pay more
attention to quality control, product safety and product liability than at any time in the
past. The Republic of the Union of Myanmar is an agriculture-based country in the
region of Southeast Asia with a total land area of 676,578 square kilometres and a total
coastline of 2,832 kilometres. Myanmar has been transitioning to a market-oriented
economy since 1989. This has involved a series of economic reforms aimed at widening
the range of economic activities in the country while also giving priority to private sector
participation.
Product safety and product liability are important for achieving market access
and improving consumers' welfare. The government has laid down economic policies
with a view to alleviating poverty and enhancing the socio-economic status of the people
by assuring increased market penetration and encouraging the public to follow good
practices regarding product safety and liability. The Ministry of Commerce is the main
department responsible for consumer protection in general, but many other regulatory
bodies are also directly or indirectly involved in securing product safety.
