Myanmar exports fishery products to Japan, European countries, China, Thailand and neighbouring countries through maritime and border trade channels.
Myanmar’s fishery export has returned to normal conditions. Yet the export volume still declines compared to that of the pre-COVID.
More than 20 fish species, including hilsa, rohu, catfish, and seabass are exported to foreign markets, according to Myanmar Fisheries Federation. Myanmar ships fishery products to over 40 countries, mainly to Thailand and China. — NN/EM
