Labour Laws in Myanmar

Issue 83, May 2014

Since 2011, Myanmar has been one of the main countries to draw international attention.  Before that  year,  international  news  coverage  on  the country  was  mostly  related  to oppression and  political turmoil caused  by  military  dictatorship. However,  after  2011, the reasons were quite different. Several political and legal reforms brought by the civilian-led government, although backed by the military group, have made a drastic shift of international climate towards the country.
