| Author | Kudo, Toshihiro |
| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The U.S. imposed trade sanctions against the Myanmar military government in July 2003. This action damaged Myanmar's garment industry in particular. This paper concludes that the sanctions' impact was inflicted disproportionately on small- and medium-sized domestic private firms and their workers. |
