Efforts have been made to improve transportation, which is of utmost importance for development of Rakhine State, during the term of the Tatmadaw government, Chairman of State Administration Council Senior General Min Aung Hlaing said at the meeting with officers, other ranks and families of An Station at the assembly hall of the Western Command.
In the past, Rakhine State lagged behind others in development due to various reasons and local residents lacked understanding and familiarity with successive governments due to transportation problems, the Senior General said.
Now, Sittwe-Yangon highway has been built. Moreover, the government is taking measures to enhance the quality of education in the entire country and has been supporting the enhancement of education quality in Rakhine State, the Senior General added.
Residents of Rakhine State lacked engagement with people from plain regions due to difficult access in the past. Misunderstandings among national races were fuelled by instigations of some organizations that look forward to disintegration of national unity and the union.
Therefore, personnel discharging duties in the region are required to understand the background history of respective areas and to serve local residents patiently and tolerantly by understanding the nature of local national races in carrying out tasks for stability, welfare and development of the region, the Senior General continued.
The Senior General urged personnel are required to perform their duties responsibly in the interests of regions and the country. As personnel of the Tatmadaw behave properly in accordance with their disciplines, personnel are required to serve the interests of the people in the same way as the moon and water give pleasure to them in accordance with the code of conduct for public relations. Similarly, it is necessary to carry out community welfare tasks for regional development tasks.
