YANGON, July 10 (Xinhua): Myanmar's biggest business organisation and the International Labour Organisation (ILO) will launch a project for boosting the capacity of employers' organisations in Myanmar and promoting work principles and sustainable enterprises, state media reported today.
According to a memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed between the Union of Myanmar Federation of Chambers of Commerce an Industry (UMFCCI) and the ILO, the project, aimed at solving disputes between employers and employees and promoting skill of labourers, will be implemented up to April 2016.
Under the project, the ILO Chief Technical Adviser and UMFCCI officers will jointly conduct business training and workshops for employers in a bid to create harmonious relations between employers and employees.
The ILO officials stressed the need for efficient member representation and the role of private sector in Myanmar's economic, social and democratic development.

A Myanmar industries association leader said that Myanmar doesn't has enough skilled workers compared with other countries and the workers need more technical knowledge and other supports.
