(Date of UN designation: 2023-07-20)

Belgian Financial Sanctions,

Pwint San has been Union Minister of Labour since 19 Aug 2022. He was appointed by the State Administration Council (SAC), led by Commander in Chief Min Aung Hlaing, which took over the legislative, executive and judicial powers of the State as of 2 Feb 2021. His position as the Union Minister for Labour was confirmed again on 1 Feb 2023. He was previously appointed as Union Minister of Commerce from the period of 3 Feb 2021 to 19 Aug 2022. As a government Minister, he forms part of the military regime which has seized power in a military coup and overthrown the legitimately elected leaders of Myanmar/Burma. Under his authority, workers’ rights, especially the rights of workers affiliated with the opposition movement, are being systematically violated. As Minister of Commerce, Pwint San facilitated the importation of goods necessary to sustain the regime’s power (e.g. fuel oil importation). Furthermore, through his national activities and international contacts, he contributes to further stabilising the illegitimate power of the military regime. At the same time, the ministry under his authority aggravates supply disruptions within the country by imposing import controls and restricting the transfer of remittances. Pwint San is therefore a natural person whose actions, policies and activities undermine democracy and the rule of law in Myanmar/Burma and who is engaged in actions that threaten the peace, security and stability of Myanmar/Burma.

Function: Union Minister of Labour

Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes,

Pwint San a été ministre du travail de l’Union du 19 août 2022 au 2 août 2023. Il a été nommé par le Conseil d’administration de l’État (SAC), dirigé par le commandant en chef Min Aung Hlaing, qui s’est emparé des pouvoirs législatif, exécutif et judiciaire de l’État à partir du 2 février 2021. Il a été précédemment nommé ministre du commerce de l’Union pour la période allant du 3 février 2021 au 19 août 2022. En sa qualité d’ancien ministre du gouvernement, il a fait partie du régime militaire qui a pris le pouvoir dans le cadre d’un coup d’État militaire et renversé les dirigeants légitimement élus du Myanmar/de la Birmanie. Sous son autorité, les droits des travailleurs, en particulier ceux des travailleurs affiliés au mouvement d’opposition, ont été systématiquement violés. En tant que ministre du commerce, Pwint San a facilité l’importation de marchandises nécessaires au maintien du pouvoir du régime (par exemple, l’importation de mazout). En outre, par ses activités nationales et ses contacts internationaux, il contribue à stabiliser davantage le pouvoir illégitime du régime militaire. Dans le même temps, le ministère précédemment placé sous son autorité aggrave les ruptures d’approvisionnement à l’intérieur du pays en imposant des contrôles à l’importation et en limitant le transfert d’envois de fonds. En sa qualité d’ancien ministre du travail de l’Union et d’ancien ministre du commerce, Pwint San est une personne physique dont les actions, politiques et activités portent atteinte à la démocratie et à l’État de droit au Myanmar/en Birmanie et qui mène des actions qui menacent la paix, la sécurité et la stabilité au Myanmar/en Birmanie.
