The Ministry of Industry of Mynamar plans to set up special zones for textiles and garments in the Yangon and Mandalay regions. The ministry will collaborate with the private sector to implement these pilot projects for industry complexes and clusters.
The Ministry also plans to launch a national level textile policy with the help of German global development organisation GIZ to develop the country’s textile industry, boost investment by inviting foreign trade partners, set up the necessary infrastructure and reduce imports.
The proposed national textile policy is part of the National Export Strategy (NES) which the commerce ministry is implementing with 11 sectors.
