Abstract

Myanmar is an important partner country of China on the timber trade.With the advantage of differences in forest resources endowment and geographic neighbor,the timber trade between China and Myanmar has developed rapidly.But since the international society has paid more and more attention to illegal logging and related trade,and the government of Myanmar banned the export of logs,timber trade between China and Myanmar would face strong uncertainty.The timber trade between China and Myanmar develops quickly but with some fluctuation,and there is some difference in different products;the prospects of timber trade between China and Myanmar are that shifting log trade to processing trade,shifting natural forest timber to manmade forest trade,shifting imperfect timber trade system to perfect timber trade system and shifting wood products trade to FDI.And finally this paper puts forward the revelation of the transformation of the China's timber trade.
