US Bans Myanmar Pearl Company
RAPAPORT. The US government has placed sanctions on Myanmar Pearl Enterprise, a key state-owned economic resource for Myanmar’s military regime, amid “violent” repression of pro-democracy protests in the southeast Asian nation.
The company is a “political subdivision, agency, or instrumentality” of the government in Myanmar, which is also known as Burma, the Department of the Treasury said in a statement Wednesday. The order bans all transactions by US persons that involve any property or interests in the property of “designated or otherwise blocked persons” related to the company, effectively ruling it out from doing any meaningful business in the US.
