On 3 October, the Myanmar Rice Federation (MRF) issued a public statement urging rice traders to strictly comply with regulations set by the State and relevant organizations, including those prohibiting transactions through multiple layers of rice brokerage channels inside or outside designated rice wholesale centres and irregular trading practices intended to drive up prices.
The federation also issued four mandatory guidelines for rice traders to ensure the stability of Myanmar Pawsan rice prices and promote increased export volumes. The statement stipulates that rice traders operating within wholesale centres must systematically maintain records of incoming and outgoing rice in the prescribed format and submit them daily to the respective wholesale centres.
Furthermore, member rice traders across Myanmar are urged to register their warehouses on the Myanmar Rice Online (MyRo) registration system and update their rice inventory volumes in a timely manner in accordance with the established rules and regulations.
The MRF also reminded all rice traders to fully cooperate with and comply with rice pricing guidelines and regulations issued by the relevant departments and organizations. — TWA/TH
