Esteemed ethnic parents and the people, We will all be here soon on the occasion of Thadingyut and I wish you all peace of mind and good health. In our Myanmar culture, the Thingyan New Year festival and Thadingyut festival are sacred festivals. Although these ceremonies cannot be held due to the presence of the COVID-19 crisis, I would like to say that we take these ceremonies seriously. As you all know, there were a lot of electoral frauds in the multiparty general election held on 8 November 2020. This shameful dishonesty of the election is a disgrace to the country. Let us learn from this so that this will not happen again and we will continue to work not to let this happen again in the future. The examination of the fraudulent incidents revealed that both the State and the people were affected. Therefore, I would like to say that action is being taken against those responsible under the law.
