It won't help anything that is going on now. It's not like the Myanmar government is going to lose sleep over sanctions. They'll just take what they need from the mouths of the people.
The only thing it serves to do is cut off any influence we might have in the region and basically give a death sentence to the locals who are employed by the company. In Canada, if a person gets laid off, there is a safety net.... in Myanmar, you can die from hunger and disease, especially considering their situation right now.
