The website launch event for the Myanmar Competition Commission (www.mmcc.gov.mm) was held on February 28, 2024, atthe Ministry of Commerce.

During the event, Union Minister Mr. Tun Ohn delivered the opening speech, emphasizing the goals and objectives of the Competition Law.

The law also seeks to encourage healthy competition within the market, ensuring that all business operators can grow and thrive together, and to provide equal opportunities for all.

He highlighted the role of the new website as a platform for providing timely information related to competition, as well as a tool for receiving competition-related complaints. The website is also intended to facilitate connections with other competition-related websites in the ASEAN region and partner countries.

The event was attended by officials from the Ministry of Commerce, including Director Generals, Deputy Director Generals, members of the Myanmar Competition Commission, representatives from various government departments and organizations, as well as officials from the Union of Myanmar Federation of Chambers of Commerce and Industry (UMFCCI).
