China companies move there because of cheaper labour costs. But they moved to Myanmar before the Miltary Coup. Previously, they provided the land free for a number of years while the companies set up their factories. Ukraine war has diverted most of the attentions.

For car parts, some products are made in China but imported and rebranded in Thailand and sold to the US and the Middle East.
