In the same way that various countries in the world are experiencing difficulties due to high commodity prices, we are also experiencing high commodity prices, State Administration Council Chairman Commandar-in-Chief of Defence Services Senior General Min Aung Hlaing said.
He made this comment during his meeting with officers, other ranks and their families from Sittwe Station of the Western Command at the local battalion on 26 February, according to the Information Team of SAC.
The Senior General said although there are natural resources and human resources, it is seen that progress is lagging behind due to the lack of willingness to work and continuous effort. Therefore, efforts are being made to improve domestic manufacturing and develop the country’s economy.
To promote the education standards of personnel, they are required to study at Tatmadaw education school properly. If individual personnel can enhance their capabilities and power of arms and equipment can be boosted, the Tatmadaw will be stronger. The capabilities of the entire Tatmadaw must be enhanced by boosting the capabilities of individual personnel, the Senior General continued.
Moreover, the Senior General explained the step-by-step procedures including on-ground data collection to ensure correct voter lists in the coming election after taking a lesson of electoral fraud in the 2020 election.
Together with the Senior General were his wife Daw Kyu Kyu Hla, Commander-in-Chief (Navy) Admiral Moe Aung and wife, Commander-in-Chief (Air) General Tun Aung and wife, senior military officers from the Office of the Commander-in-Chief and their wives, Commander of Western Command Maj-Gen Htin Latt Oo and officials.
