Summary on 2 July
· The military junta has printed a large amount of money, causing hyperinflation and the sharp rise of general expenses. As they have failed to resolve the root cause, they have made traders and sellers sell products with fixed prices. In reality, they themselves have not been able to sell enough quantity all over the country and the same is true for dealers. However, they have arrested those who cannot sell using the reference prices. In addition, they have done the same to Japanese business people with foreign investments. Consequently, foreign investors in the country might leave Myanmar soon.
