YANGON, 27 November (BelTA) - Chairwoman of the Belarusian state concern for production and sale of light industry goods Bellegprom Nadezhda Lazarevich told journalists about the practical results of the Belarus-Myanmar business forum, BelTA has learned.
“Everything is good in terms of supplying our products. But we are not just delivering goods: we are delivering technologies,” she said. “We had a productive meeting with the industry minister [of Myanmar], where we discussed our further potential in developing the light industry. We presented the capabilities of the Kamvol enterprise, including the supply of high-tech fabrics. The light industry here is very well developed, accounting for more than 30% of the country’s export share.”
In addition, the Belarusian side provided detailed information on opportunities for training specialists from Myanmar. This included training medical personnel, which is particularly relevant given Myanmar’s interest in purchasing Belarusian pharmaceutical products. Discussions were held on training medical personnel from Myanmar in Belarus, who would later be able to work in their own country. Nadezhda Lazarevich noted that Belarus has very strong universities with the knowledge and expertise to train specialists in English. “As our president says, we do not simply sell goods – we sell technologies. That is our strength,” she emphasized.

“Belarus is interested in establishing and expanding supplies of Myanmar’s rubber, cotton, rice, coffee, and other products. The Belarusian side is focused not only on increasing bilateral trade with Myanmar but also on developing cooperative ties and seeking new partners,” Nadezhda Lazarevich streesed. “Our task is to convert dialogue at the highest political level into concrete economic projects.”
