ဖော်ပြချက်/အကြောင်းအရာ:
"This policy brief looks into climate risks to three
selected industries (agribusinesses, garment
industries, building businesses) in order to illustrate
potential impacts on and key vulnerabilities of
businesses in Myanmar, dominated by small and
medium enterprises.
Businesses and industries in Myanmar are already
facing enormous losses and damages associated
with climate change. In future, climate change will
likely cause huge production losses and physical
damages to farmers, agro-processing firms, retailers
and other agribusinesses. The garment industry will
face unreliable electricity supply, disruptions in all
transport modes, physical damages to assets, and
declining health and well-being of migrant workers.
Building industries and businesses will be challenged
by more frequent disruption of operations, as well
as losses associated with long-term consequences
of climate change on supply of materials, health of
workers, quality of construction works and market
demand.
•
To enhance the resilience of businesses and
industries, Myanmar should: enforce environmental
laws, regulations and safety standards legislation;
mainstream climate change considerations into
sectoral policies, labour health and safety standards,
and social protection programmes; and develop
tailored information services, stimulate research,
raise awareness, support capacity-building of
businesses, and improve early warning systems.
Public institutions should work with the private
sector to safeguard a resilient future of the nation and
communities, including by engaging private sector
actors in adaptation planning and implementation,
and promoting public-private partnerships..."
