The major instruments of trade control are license,\r\nquantitative restrictions and foreign exchange control rather than through high import duties or export levies.\r\nMoreover, investment restriction, trade sanction and several restricted measures imposed by the United States and\r\nEuropean countries also had large impact on the structure and direction of Myanmar’s trade.\r\nThis paper has attempted to identify the factors that affect on the directions and trends of Myanmar’s imports\r\nand to provide trade policy implications under the framework of basic gravity model. In order to quantify the\r\ndeterminant factors of Myanmar’s imports, actual bilateral import volume is compared to the predicted volume\r\nestimated by the gravity equation.\r\nDuring a decade, Myanmar has more relied on the neighboring and other Asian countries for its external\r\ntrade. However, actual import volume of Myanmar from its neighboring countries are much lower than the potential\r\npredicted by the gravity equation, thus it can be envisaged that there are existence of trade barriers and unrecorded\r\ninformal trades in border area. Even though tariff rates of Myanmar is relatively low in line with CEPT scheme of\r\nAFTA, effective tariff rate is supposed to be high and thereby creating low volume of actual trade recorded. These\r\nfindings suggest that having large extent of informal trades in border areas, Myanmar needs to take possible measures\r\nto regularize and institutionalize such trade activities in order to promote formal trade and improve government\r\nrevenues."}]}, "item_1583103108160": {"attribute_name": "Keywords", "attribute_value_mlt": [{"interim": "AFTA"}]}, "item_1583103120197": {"attribute_name": "Files", "attribute_type": "file", "attribute_value_mlt": [{"accessrole": "open_access", "date": [{"dateType": "Available", "dateValue": "2020-05-05"}], "displaytype": "preview", "download_preview_message": "", "file_order": 0, "filename": "Nu Nu Lwin, Dr. Myanmar Import(MAAS)_Vol.X_No.11.pdf", "filesize": [{"value": "6956 Kb"}], "format": "application/pdf", "future_date_message": "", "is_thumbnail": false, "licensetype": "license_free", "mimetype": "application/pdf", "size": 6956000.0, "url": {"url": "https://meral.edu.mm/record/2748/files/Nu Nu Lwin, Dr. Myanmar Import(MAAS)_Vol.X_No.11.pdf"}, "version_id": "c7c53a47-69c4-483c-9940-9ddd17879291"}]}, "item_1583103131163": {"attribute_name": "Journal articles", "attribute_value_mlt": [{"subitem_issue": "11", "subitem_journal_title": "Myanmar Academy of Arts and Science", "subitem_volume": "x"}]}, "item_1583103147082": {"attribute_name": "Conference papaers", "attribute_value_mlt": [{}]}, "item_1583103211336": {"attribute_name": "Books/reports/chapters", "attribute_value_mlt": [{}]}, "item_1583103233624": {"attribute_name": "Thesis/dissertations", "attribute_value_mlt": [{"subitem_supervisor(s)": []}]}, "item_1583105942107": {"attribute_name": "Authors", "attribute_value_mlt": [{"subitem_authors": [{"subitem_authors_fullname": "Nu Nu Lwin, Dr."}]}]}, "item_1583108359239": {"attribute_name": "Upload type", "attribute_value_mlt": [{"interim": "Publication"}]}, "item_1583108428133": {"attribute_name": "Publication type", "attribute_value_mlt": [{"interim": "Journal article"}]}, "item_1583159729339": {"attribute_name": "Publication date", "attribute_value": "2012-06"}, "item_1583159847033": {"attribute_name": "Identifier", "attribute_value": "https://ecor.yueco.edu.mm/handle/123456789/858"}, "item_title": "AN ANALYSIS ON INFLUENCING FACTORS OF MYANMAR’S IMPORTS*", "item_type_id": "21", "owner": "1", "path": ["1582965639643"], "permalink_uri": "http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12678/0000002748", "pubdate": {"attribute_name": "Deposited date", "attribute_value": "2020-03-05"}, "publish_date": "2020-03-05", "publish_status": "0", "recid": "2748", "relation": {}, "relation_version_is_last": true, "title": ["AN ANALYSIS ON INFLUENCING FACTORS OF MYANMAR’S IMPORTS*"], "weko_shared_id": -1}
