UMFCCI President urges economic sector cooperation, citing rice industry success

27 October 2026

The Central Executive Committee Meeting of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar Federation of Chambers of Commerce and Industry (UMFCCI) was held this afternoon at its meeting hall in Yangon.

It was attended by UMFCCI President U Aye Win, Vice Presidents, the Secretary-General, Joint Secretaries-General, and committee members.

In his opening remarks, the UMFCCI President stated that the honour ceremony held on 22 October  in Nay Pyi Taw to recognize the growers, producers, exporters, and sellers of “Myanmar Paw San”—which won the World’s Best Rice Award 2026—was a crucial initiative that effectively supports the expansion of an essential national product into international markets.

Furthermore, he urged that this success was achieved through the collaborative efforts of all stakeholders, and if other associations work together like the Myanmar Rice Federation, they will be able to create promising potential and progress.

He also highlighted the constructive collaboration discussed with Malaysian entrepreneurs during the bilateral business dialogue held early last month, noting how current trends are shifting beyond mere cross-border trade toward models based on combining complementary strengths between both countries.

Afterward, attendees discussed plans to grandly hold UMFCCI’s 35th Annual General Meeting.
