LegalEntity:notes | The Myanmar Office of the Quarter Master General is a department under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Defense (MoD) that is involved in arms and military equipment procurement for the Myanmar Armed Forces (Tatmadaw). As such, the Quarter Master General Office is organically under the control of the Myanmar Armed Forces including since the 1 Feb 2021 coup. It acts as a key enabler of the violence and human rights violations the Myanmar military has inflicted upon Myanmar civilians and therefore has contributed to fuelling the spiral of violence that has engulfed Myanmar/Burma since the 2021 coup. The office of the Quarter Master General is also involved in the management of economic assets that benefit the junta. The Office of the Quarter Master General is linked to several figures and entities listed by the EU, including commander-in-chief Senior-General Min Aung Hlaing and Myanmar Economic Corporation (MEC). | ch_seco_sanctions | ch-seco-60182 | ||||
