Chairman of the State Security and Peace Commission and Commander-in-Chief of Defence Services Senior General Min Aung Hlaing, accompanied by Commander-in-Chief (Navy) Admiral Htein Win, Commander-in-Chief (Air) General Tun Aung and officials, inspected progress in the construction of the war veteran housing in PyinOoLwin yesterday morning.

Quartermaster-General Lt-Gen Zaw Hein reported to the Senior General on extended construction of war veteran housing in relevant financial years, settlement of war veterans and families, and work progress.

In his response to the reports, the Senior General gave guidance that it is necessary to systematically settle war veterans and their families in the completed housing. He stressed that it is necessary to supervise the construction of housing to be completed on time, meeting the standards. The housing estates must be facilitated with areas where people can take physical exercise to help their health. The construction of high-rise buildings must be calculated systematically to have resilience against natural disasters.
The Senior General and the party visited the war veteran housing compound. He cordially greeted the war veterans and their families and asked about their requirements.

A total of 10 four-storey two-unit housing for other ranks, 10 six-storey four-unit housing for other ranks, three six-storey four-unit junior officer housing, and one six-storey four-unit senior officer housing have been built at the war veteran housing in PyinOoLwin. Plans are underway to build housing for senior officers, junior officers and other ranks.
The Senior General also inspected functions of the railway station in PyinOoLwin, where Union Minister for Transport and Communications U Mya Tun Oo and officials reported on keeping the station clean and pleasant, and removal of illegal residents and vendors from the station yard.

The Senior General gave guidance to carry out systematic management for the station and viewed around the station.
