"UNION Minister for Social Welfare, Relief and Resettlement Dr Win Myat Aye discussed the latest situations of internally displaced persons in Paletwa Township, Chin State, cooperation between the ministry and Chin State government and continued assistance. Those presented the meeting were Deputy Minister U Soe Aung, directors-general, Chin State government officials, Hluttaw representatives, members of the Khumi Affairs Coordination Council (KACC) assisting IDPs in Paletwa, and members of the Chin IDP Assistance and Rehabilitation Committee. The Union Minister said the conflicts in Paletwa have forced the IDPs to flee not only to Paletwa, but also to Yangon City and Rakhine State as well. He said there are current short and long term processes for the IDPs and COVID-19 needs to be incorporated as an important topic. Dr Win Myat Aye said they are implementing action plans for the five states that have IDP camps and national-level meetings are discussing additional food deliveries to IDPs in Paletwa. He said they regularly share COVID-19 news and information in the IDP camps and supply them woven face masks, soap, body thermometers, and wash basins as necessary. The Union Minister said the 10 guidelines sent by the Ministry of Health and Sports through SMS are the main guidance for the public to follow and requested officials to assist IDP camp residents in following them..."
