China has defended a copper mine project in Myanmar following protests at the site and called for society to respect the law.
China's Embassy in Yangon said that the Monya Copper Mine Project, a joint venture between Myanmar and Chinese businesses will bring benefits to both sides. Issues regarding relocation, compensation, environmental protection and profit sharing were settled through negotiations.
We hope all levels of Myanmar society can create a favorable environment for the project's smooth operation based on respect for laws and regulations of Myanmar.
