China will have to work to regain the goodwill of Myanmar’s people, a local business leader said, after years of poor behaviour by mainland businesses soured local opinion.
Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi (王毅) met with his Myanmar counterpart Aung San Suu Kyi on Tuesday, to discuss recent stalled infrastructure developments including a US$3.6 billion dam project.
It was her first official meeting since being appointed Myanmar’s foreign minister after the recent change of government.
But Union of Myanmar Federation of Chambers of Commerce and Industry vice-president Dr Maung Maung Lay said unethical Chinese businesses and a close relationship with the previous regime had created problems.
“Many unscrupulous traders dump substandard, spurious products in Myanmar and that has tarnished the image of China,” he said. (Courtesy of South China Morning Post)
