Descriptions

(Date of UN designation: 2021-06-21)

Belgian Financial Sanctions,

Myanmar Gems Enterprise (MGE) is a state-owned enterprise controlled by the Myanmar Armed Forces (Tatmadaw), responsible for drafting rules and regulations and for supervising and granting permits to local private entrepreneurs, organizing emporiums and special sales for the productive hades and gems sale. MGE operates under the instructions of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Conservation (MONREC), whose Minister has been appointed by the State Administrative Council (SAC). The Myanmar Armed Forces (Tatmadaw), has for a long time held significant jade and gemstone interests, especially through MGE’s leadership, which consists almost entirely of former military officials, and activities conducted by two military conglomerates (Myanmar Economic Holdings Limited (MEHL) and Myanmar Economic Corporation Limited (MEC)). The coup of 1 Feb 2021 has put MGE back under military control, allowing the Tatmadaw to significantly control the gem sector. MGE generates revenue for different department of the Myanmar State and through its various activities described above, the Tatmadaw is able to benefit directly or indirectly from the revenue generated by this sector, therefore contributing to its capabilities to carry out activities undermining democracy and the rule of law and to serious human rights violations in Myanmar/Burma.

Type d’entité: entreprise d’État; Lieu d’enregistrement: Myanmar; Myanmar Gems Enterprise (MGE) est une entreprise d’État contrôlée par les forces armées du Myanmar (Tatmadaw), chargée d’élaborer des règlements, de superviser les permis et de les délivrer aux entrepreneurs privés locaux, ainsi que d’organiser des foires et des ventes spéciales de jade et de pierres précieuses. MGE agit sur instruction du ministère des ressources naturelles et de la conservation de l’environnement (MONREC), dont le ministre a été nommé par le Conseil d’administration d’État. Les forces armées du Myanmar (Tatmadaw) détiennent, depuis longtemps, d’importants intérêts dans le secteur du jade et des pierres précieuses, en particulier via la direction de MGE, qui est composée presque exclusivement d’anciens militaires, à travers des activités menées par deux conglomérats militaires [Myanmar Economic Holdings Limited (MEHL) et Myanmar Economic Corporation Limited (MEC)]. Le coup d’État du 1er février 2021 a replacé MGE sous contrôle militaire, ce qui a permis à la Tatmadaw de contrôler dans une large mesure le secteur des pierres précieuses. MGE génère des revenus pour différents services de l’État du Myanmar grâce aux diverses activités décrites ci-dessus, et la Tatmadaw peut bénéficier directement ou indirectement des recettes générées par ce secteur. MGE contribue ainsi à la capacité de la Tatmadaw à mener des activités portant atteinte à la démocratie et à l’état de droit et à commettre de graves violations des droits de l’homme au Myanmar/en Birmanie.
