However, Burma's economic and trade strength can not be underestimated. From 1 to May this year, the amount of Taiwan exported to Burma amounted to US $40 million, compared with 29 million 700 thousand US dollars in the same period last year, it has grown 34.6%, and the growth rate has exceeded 29% of Vietnam.

Since ancient times, Burma has been the gateway to trade between the East and the West in the southwest China silk road. Nowadays, under the support of "ASEAN 10 plus 1" and the future "ASEAN 10 plus 3 (China, Japan and Korea)", the population with a population of 59 million 880 thousand and natural resources rich Burma has become a market that Taiwanese businessmen dare not overlook.

The average annual economic growth rate in Burma from 2000 to 2004 is over 10%. In particular, this year (2010) will meet the requirements of the European and American countries and hold a national election. If the process goes smoothly, the European and American countries will be able to lift their economic sanctions, and Burma's economy will fly up to the sky.

The total oil reserves have been more than 700 million barrels, and the total reserves of natural gas are 500 billion cubic meters. Foreign capital invested in oil and natural gas exploration and development projects in the country has reached 2 billion 730 million US dollars. France TOTAL and Japan Nippon Oil have invested in Burma.

According to Mr. Zaw Min Win, vice president of the association, it has a large domestic demand market and participates in the regional integration plan of "Mekong River Basin, ASEAN 10 plus 1 and Bangladesh bay". Among them, Burma's "Bangladesh Gulf regional economic cooperation organization" will effectively attract investment from India, Bangladesh and Pakistan, and has unlimited potential for development in the future.

According to Chen Wuyao, director of the factory, the local people believe in Buddhism, good people and good law and order. This is the competitive advantage of Burma.

In view of the optimistic outlook for the future economy of Kampuchea and Burma, and the government of Kampuchea and Burma actively developing people's livelihood and the import substitution industry, the demand for machinery and equipment and components needed for import production will increase.

In addition, with the continuous improvement of the national income of the two countries, the demand for spare parts, communication products and various kinds of consumer goods and raw materials for production will also increase.
