B'desh-Myanmar commerce secy level meeting begins Wednesday
Talha bin Habib

A two-day commerce secretary level meeting between Bangladesh and Myanmar will begin from Wednesday in the capital where the signing of preferential trading arrangement and settlement of trade disputes will prominently come up for discussion, officials said.

Reviewing the implementation status of the 7th JTC meeting, cooperation in exchange of trade figures and prevention of smuggling of goods and establishment of Kanyinchaung Trade Zone will dominate the agenda in the meeting.

The two sides will also review issues on trade, banking, tariff and progress in coastal shipping agreement.

"We will discuss different trade-related issues and measures for promoting trade between Bangladesh and Myanmar," senior secretary of the ministry of commerce (MoC) Hedayetullah Al Mamoon told the FE.

The coastal shipping line between Bangladesh and Myanmar was supposed to be launched much earlier, but this was not possible because of political tension in the bordering areas in recent years.

A coastal shipping line will help Bangladesh send readymade garment items to Myanmar, according to business circles.

Now Myanmar's customers buy garment items made in Bangladesh from Thailand.

Myanmar is rich in wood. Once the coastal shipping line is in place, Bangladesh can import it from that country to meet the demand for the local furniture sector.

Bangladesh will also discuss other topics like banking transactions as Myanmar's commercial banks have already opened the Asian Clearing Union (ACU) accounts with correspondent banks from the Bangladesh side, according to a report of the seventh joint trade commission meeting held in Myanmar in 2014.

The two countries will seek cooperation in the areas of oil, gas and mineral resources.

Bangladesh will also discuss import of hydroelectric power and pulses, food grains, timber and other items from Myanmar, while the southeast Asian nation has demanded tax reduction on its exports of betel nus, dried and salted fish as it has a lot of stock of those goods for exports, according to the report.

A joint statement will be issued by the two sides on November 10 regarding the outcome of the meeting, according to commerce ministry officials.

Hydroelectric power, pulses, timber and salted fish the import of which benefit both the countries. BD's fast economic growth needs timber. Burma has tens of thousands of acres of forests. Why it should overthink of depletion of this merchandise?

Hilsha fish is very expensive in BD and quite cheap in Burma. The river Irawardy is full of this fish. BD may think of importing this. In Japan, we do not find any more the BD Hilsha. All come either directly from Burma or via Thailand.

Like he said, if you want furniture you are welcome to import it (as finished product). You are NOT getting raw timber. What timber (non-teak) that Burma has not banned export of, much larger more important customers bid much higher than what weak BD consumer market can afford.

Don't make me humiliate you with just how measly your demand for timber is.

As for all the rest, best settle your Rohingya problem with Burma before they are interested in economically cooperating with BD in any major way. They are very reluctant to even build a road to allow connection of you with China and you want hydropower....when you are a loan dependent country reliant on 3rd parties for such technology. Yeah, good luck little man. Solve rohingya border problem, then talk big.

It seems that the GoI has appointed you as the Governor of Burma. But, since when? Burmese do not like a blacky Indians among them. They may lynch you in the open.

Put up the numbers or shut up. I only see BD people getting slapped around at the border with Myanmar.

And you want to buy hydropower and all sorts of other things from them :rofl:

Never do Indians these days face similar in Burma....they are active and integrated trader community in Yangon.

So first take back your illegals (Rohingyas) from there and then they may think of talking trade with you.

100 million dollars of stagnant trade compared to around 2 billion dollars in trade between India and Myanmar that is going to increase many magnitudes in the coming years. You still intent on comparing?:lol:
