SHANGHAI, Nov 10 (SMM) - According to SMM research, the recent resurgence of COVID in Myanmar's Moung Bog County has led to the closure of the city, with the lockdown lasting from 12:00 Myanmar time on November 9 to 12:00 November 12. As Moung Bog is the only port for China to import Myanmar tin ore, the subsequent failure of the pandemic prevention and control, and the expansion of the lockdown time, may affect the subsequent imports of Myanmar tin ore.
