Hluttaw representatives need to have a thorough understanding of their respective constituencies and the wishes of the voters and the public, said U Khin Yi, Speaker of the Pyithu Hluttaw, at the meeting with Pyithu Hluttaw representatives from Mandalay Region at Thabin Hall of the Mandalay Region Hluttaw office yesterday afternoon.

The Speaker continued that Hluttaw representatives must carry out their duties with a focus on the interests of the State and its citizens, without partisan bias, ethnic bias, or ideological bias. They also need to strive to become representatives who address and fulfil the difficulties faced by the people and who are worthy of the public’s trust. Hluttaw representatives have to submit the needs of the people to the Hluttaw for addressing these issues promptly.

He added that Hluttaw representatives should ensure that there are no procedural errors in their activities. A Hluttaw is an institution composed of public representatives who have been elected and entrusted with responsibilities in accordance with the wishes of the people from their respective constituencies.

The Speaker underscored that legislative work is the primary responsibility of the Hluttaw, adding that the Hluttaw has the duty to ensure that citizens can live peacefully and securely under the protection of the law. Therefore, existing laws that are no longer in line with the current era and system need to be systematically reviewed and amended, supplemented, and enacted as necessary. It is also necessary to study and assess the current situation and promulgate laws that are in line with the times.

He revealed that priority will be given to submit the Anti-Online Scam Bill to the second regular session of the Hluttaw to enact the law.

He pointed out that Hluttaw representatives, when submitting and raising questions, need to present and ask about the actual needs of the people.

He highlighted that only when the Hluttaw and the government work together in close cooperation and coordination will it be possible to truly achieve national development and effectively fulfil the needs of the people.

Mandalay Region Hluttaw Speaker U Aung Kyaw Moe reported on the undertakings of the third Mandalay Region Hluttaw. The Pyithu Hluttaw Speaker gave the necessary instructions. After the meeting, the Pyithu Hluttaw Speaker inspected the convention hall of the region Hluttaw.

In a meeting with MSME businesspersons and town elders of Mandalay Region, the Pyithu Hluttaw Speaker said that Hluttaw has the responsibility to ensure that citizens fully enjoy the rights guaranteed under the Constitution. Town elders, respected community leaders, and businesspersons can openly and candidly present any difficulties they are facing, as well as matters that require the State’s assistance and support, so that the Hluttaw can coordinate and facilitate the necessary actions. The Hluttaws will also strive to coordinate with the relevant authorities and, when necessary, amend, supplement, or enact new laws accordingly.

The meeting attendees participated in the discussions. The Speaker vowed that, concerning submissions for individual difficulties, public or collective issues, and MSME-related challenges that contribute to national development, the Hluttaw will review and re-examine these measures under laws, regulations, and procedures. If necessary, the Hluttaw will coordinate and resolve such matters and proceed with enacting them intolaw.
