maritime borders with India a crucial
Myanmar is the only ASEAN country sharing land and maritime borders with India, a crucial link between India’s northeastern states and Southeast Asia. The 1,643 km shared border with Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, and Mizoram integrates isolated India’s northeastern region with ASEAN markets. Myanmar’s Sagaing Region and Chin State are key trade hubs. Bilateral trade facilitated through Moreh-Tamu and Zowkhathar-Rhi volume remains modest, reaching $2.175 billion in 2016-17. Myanmar exports beans and pulses ($809 million) and timber ($156 million) while importing sugar ($424 million) and pharmaceuticals ($184 million), highlighting untapped potential in the trade relationship. สล็อตเว็บตรง
