Currently, the Tat­madaw focuses on hold­ing a free and fair elec­tion and restoring peace and rule of law across the nation, said Chairman of the State Ad­ministration Council Command­er-in-Chief of Defence Services Senior General Min Aung Hlaing at the meeting with Tatmadaw members and families from Monywa Station at Zeyathiri Hall of the North-West Com­mand Headquarters yesterday afternoon.

Speaking on the occasion, the Senior General said as strength can make good chang­es and better progress for the State as well as the Tatmadaw, military unity and the united strength of the State must be built without fail.

Political progress of the State

The Senior General ex­plained leading of the Tatmadaw for implementing the multiparty democratic system the entire people aspire to, initiating the multiparty democratic system as from 2011, political changes of the State in successive eras, difficulties in period of Covid-19 in its tenure of the Tatmadaw in serving the State responsi­bilities, and endeavours of the Tatmadaw for development of political, social and all-round de­velopment measures, policies for peace and stability and objec­tives amid the destructive acts of those not wishing to restore peace and stability of the State.

Ensuring peace and stability of entire nation, holding a free and fair election

The Senior General contin­ued to say that the Tatmadaw is primarily to serve safeguarding the sovereignty against the for­eign dangers and serving nation­al interests of the State and the citizens. Currently, the Tatmadaw focuses on holding a free and fair election and restoring peace and rule of law across the nation.

In order to successfully hold the election, the country needs to restore peace. So, an emphasis is being placed on ceasing the armed conflicts and peace talks are being held with ethnic armed organizations. In this regard, the Tatmadaw adjusts the peace talks for having deserved measures for the State based on the wishes of meeting participants. Ethnics must have the rights to partici­pate in the political platform so as to demand their entitlements under the law as the Hluttaw is the highest political platform in the democratic system.

The peace talks with ethnic armed organizations could bring positive results to the State, and remaining measures to be talked in detail are being discussed.

Sharpening military capacity under disciplines

Only when the Tatmadaw members fully apply their mili­tary tactics and martial arts will they have the upper hand in the battlefields with lack of losing casualties. Hence, they have to be fit for duty on a daily basis. They have to follow the rule of engagement and obey military disciplines to be good soldiers.

As endeavours will bring success in all jobs, all Tatmad­aw members need to culture strength. Only when they forge the military unity will they can unite the strength in order to achieve success in all assign­ments. Hence, they have to fo­cus on military unity. A fair and united administrative system can fortify the military unity. All Tatmadaw members need to be loyal to each other, their families, the Tatmadaw and the State.

Encouraging education pro­motion

During the summer holi­days, Tatmadaw members are to manage their offsprings to ef­ficiently use their spare time by reviewing their school lessons, attending cultural, computer and other training courses.

Self-control needs to manage drinking, indulgence and bet­ting

Individual indulgence and betting without rationality may affect daily needs of families, so they have to control themselves. Officials should supervise sub­ordinates not to commit betting.

Welfare for all

Military owned agriculture and livestock farms aim to initiate welfare of Tatmadaw families, not focusing on profits. Tatmadaw has fulfilled the requirements of Tatmadaw members at differ­ent ranks as much as possible.

If Tatmadaw members and families in individuals make efforts for forging the strength, military unity will improve with securing success.
