Myanmar will exhibit its agricultural
products for the first time overseas when it holds a fruit and vegetable
expo in Singapore this month.
A source says the move is to expand the international market for Myanmar’s agriculture sector.
Organised by local agricultural firm
Malar Myaing Co, the expo will last two days beginning November 17.
Aside from fruits and vegetables, flowers will also be on display at the
expo.
“This is the first for us to hold such
an expo abroad. We will take fresh fruits and vegetables from local
farmers to Singapore so that their products can penetrate the global
market,” said Yin Yin, one of the organisers.
Myanmar currently exports melon, mango
and cucumber to China, Thailand, Hong Kong, India and Malaysia. Melon
export to Singapore in air-conditioned containers started in August.
