An official from the Myeik Public Corporation said that land reform will begin next open season as a fish auction has been approved in Myeik, Tanintharyi Region.

Sandawat Village Tract in Myeik Township has been proposed to build an international standard fish auction with an investment of US $ 300 million (500 billion kyats) and has now been approved.

Prime Minister Sr. Gen. Min Aung Hlaing, Chairman of the State Administration Council, spoke at a meeting of the State Management Council on September 24 regarding the permission to build a fish auction market.

“I heard that they have given permission to set up a fish auction,” he said. Thank you for working for the development of the fisheries sector and regional development. We have to deal with land issues first. We have to discuss with farmers. Land reclamation work will begin next open season. It is also important for banks to speed up their investment, ”said an official from Myeik Public Corporation.

Officials have already inspected the international standard fish auction to be built in Myeik, so the work can start.

The project is scheduled to run for seven years and will create tens of thousands of jobs from the start of construction, according to a director of the Myeik Public Corporation.
