Myanmar - Oct 3

The Burmese Investigation Commission for the Letpataungdaung copper mine has been reviewing the project to ensure it meets certain standards. The Burmese government, through the commission, has taken careful steps to enforce compensating those displaced by the project and providing proper equipment. Since copper is the 3rd largest export of Myanmar, the addition of the new copper mine is particularly important for economic growth. Source: The New Light of Myanmar, Page 3
