Reference news, March 9-British media said, trade sources said 7th, China cracks down on immigration sugar smuggling activities, attempts by Myanmar into China sugar begins to decline, but this year it is still considerable.

Reuters reported on March 7, China's domestic sugar prices last year led to sugar, rampant smuggling activities across the border into China from Myanmar.

Reports that China is the world's largest importer of sugar. Officials of the Chinese Ministry of agriculture said last month that each year as many as 1 million tons of sugar smuggled into China.

Dealers said most of the smuggling of sugar from India and Thailand and Brazil have a much lower proportion of sugar. They said police will step up efforts against smuggling activities by the Chinese authorities, and refined sugar raw sugar and reduce the premium.

Reported that a sugar in Yunnan province, China, brokers say the past few days by border guards against Myanmar smuggling sugar activities. "They have recently blocked smuggling route, which will force some brokers buy sugar from legitimate sources in the coming weeks to increase inventory," the broker said.

Trade sources say, premium on refined sugar raw sugar recently revised down from a peak of $ 110-115 a tonne, implying that smuggling has slowed.

外媒称缅中边境白糖走私猖獗：每年超100万吨|走私_新闻资讯

　　参考消息网3月9日报道 英媒称，贸易领域消息人士7日表示，中国打击入境白糖走私活动之后，企图经缅甸流入中国的白糖开始减少，但今年规模仍将可观。

　　据路透社3月7日报道，去年中国国内糖价高涨，导致白糖从缅甸跨境进入中国的走私活动猖獗。

　　报道称，中国是全球最大糖进口国。中国农业部官员上月表示，每年有多至100万吨糖走私贩运到中国境内。

　　交易商表示，大部分走私白糖来自印度和泰国，巴西糖占比要低得多。他们称，中国当局警将加强打击走私活动的力度，并降低精制糖较原糖的溢价。

　　报道称，中国云南省某糖商表示，过去几日边防部门展开了打击缅甸走私糖的活动。“他们近来阻断了走私路径，这将迫使一些中间商在未来几周从合法渠道购买白糖以增加库存，”这位经纪商称。

　　贸易行业的消息人士说，近来精制糖较原糖溢价从每吨110-115美元的峰值向下修正，暗示走私活动有所放缓。

　　报道称，中国白糖需求增加支撑了精制糖较原糖溢价。国际糖价近来反弹至六周高点，这压缩了走私利润。

　　普氏的一位资深分析师预计，2016年第一季度每月走私到中国的白糖不会超过15万吨，低于2015年第四季度的每月逾20万吨的数量。

　　另一位分析师说，走私导致两个群体遭到打击——一个是持有白糖进口许可证的人，另一个是炼糖商。
