CLEAN CLOTHING/ DIRTY CLOTHING Close Window

"MkOne, a 'value fashion store', has withdrawn a range of clothing after it was informed that the clothes were made in Burma. The items were labelled 'Made in Myanmar' but the company claimed ignorance of the country of origin. They have withdrawn the offending articles (March 2007). Other retailers who refuse to stock clothing from Burma include M&S, Next, Debenhams and House of Fraser. However, it is unusual for clothing from Burma to be labelled accurately. Clothing manufactured under sweat shop conditions in Burma represents a valuable export for the military junta.
