Today, due to the concepts of multi-faceted warfare, battles are no longer fought only in the jungles, but also in urban areas, making the front lines more spacious, SAC Chairman said.
Ceremony to present Tatmadaw gallantry medals and certificates was held at Zeyathiri Beikman here on 4 January, graced by Chairman of State Administration Council Commander-in-Chief of Defence Services Senior General Thadoe Maha Thray Sithu Thadoe Thiri Thudhamma Min Aung Hlaing with his presence.
The efforts of the talented people who carry out national defense duties for the benefit of their own people are the achievements that few ordinary women can achieve. The basis of the emergence of such capabilities is true patriotism towards one’s country. The main reserve forces of the Tatmadaw, who are the female family members, have been the guardians of the family honour and the honour of the Tatmadaw in the event of an emergency, the Senior General urged.
Those who have been awarded the honorary medals for their bravery and courage in carrying out their national defense responsibilities have been persistent and have not hesitated to risk their lives. They are those who diligently performed their duties and made a good record, so they will always be remembered and respected as the good martyrs of the people.
Ceremonies to present honorary degrees/medals and certificates are held at the annual Independence Day celebrations for those who performed their duties at the risk of their lives. Twenty-five gallantry medals, 9 Ye Thura medals, 99 Ye Bala medals, 14 Management Excellence Medals (first class), 28 Management Excellence Medals (second class), 34 Management Excellence Medals (third class); 3 Social Excellence Medals (first class), 6 Social Excellence Medals (second class), 3 Social Excellence Medals (third class), 5 Technical Excellence Medals (first class), 10 Technical Excellence Medals (second class), 33 Technical Excellence Medal (third class), 111 gallantry certificates of the Commander-in-Chief of Defence Services, and 480 honorary certificates of the Commander-in-Chief of Defence Services are also being awarded at the same time by the relevant regional commanders on behalf of the Commander-in-Chief of Defence Services.
