A report by the Environmental Investigation Agency exposes the still flourishing trade. Teak is supplied to the rest of Europe, mainly in boatbuilding, such as luxury yachts. In Chin State, the military set fire to houses in a city abandoned by its residents because of the violence.


Yangon (AsiaNews) – The Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA), an international NGO dedicated to investigating environmental crime and abuse, found that more than 300 tonnes of timber worth € 2 million (US$ 2.3 million) arrived in Italy from Myanmar, this despite the impositions of sanctions by the European Union last June.

The economic sanctions, which the international community imposed after a military coup on 1 February, target the state-owned Myanmar Timber Enterprise, which is responsible for the teak trade. This type of hardwood is used mainly in luxury boatbuilding.
