HLUTTAW SESSIONS: Pyidaungsu Hluttaw: Losses of state-run industries dominate
Pyidaungsu Hluttaw discussion: "Regarding the situation
of privatization and
state-owned factories and
industries that have been
making losses, U Thein
Aung, Deputy Minister for
Industry blamed the rise
in production costs on the

trade policies, the uniformity
of foreign exchange
rates, increased salaries for
state service personnel and
high electricity and fuel
bills."...Pyithu Hluttaw: Cultivable lands reclaimed for farmless
people to help reduce poverty: Lower House: "Virgin lands, wetlands

turning shifting plantation
into ladder farming in hilly
regions, the deputy minister
for Agriculture and Irrigation
has told the Pyithu Hluttaw
(Lower House).
U Khin Zaw told the
Lower House on Friday that
permits have been granted to
individual farmers to work
on 50 acres of land in line
with the rules and regulations
by management committees.
Lack of funds has made
some regions and states difficult
to reclaim cultivable
lands, despite a vast stretch
of virgin lands, wetlands and
marshlands there."...Amyotha Hluttaw: Labour ministry says setting minimum
wage is time-consuming process: "Steps are being taken
by means of conducting

minister for Labour, Employment
and Social Security
has told the Amyotha

Deputy Minister for Labour,
Employment and
Social Security, told the

living costs are under way
