General Maung Aye looks into development of Rakhine State
Yangon, 22 May? Vice-Chairman of the State Peace and Development Council Deputy Commander-in-Chief of Defence Services Commander-in-Chief (Army) General Maung Aye, accompanied by Commander-in-Chief (Navy) Rear-Admiral Kyi Min, Commander-in-Chief (Air) Lt-Gen Kyaw Than, the ministers, senior military officers, officials of the State Peace and Development Council Office and departments concerned, left here by Tatmadaw flight yesterday morning and arrived in Sittway, Rakhine State, at 10 am.
At Sittway Airport, the General and party were welcomed by member of the State Peace and Development Council Chairman of Rakhine State Peace and Development Council Commander of Western Command Maj-Gen Aung Htwe, Vice-Chairman of Rakhine State Peace and Development Council Brig-Gen Phone Swe and members and departmental officials.
In the hall of Sittway Station, General Maung Aye met members of Rakhine State Peace and Development Council, Sittway District and Township Peace and Development Councils and Rakhine State-level departmental officials.
General Maung Aye said their visit to Rakhine State is to render necessary assistance to exceed the targets of the third short-term five-year plan and to explain the nation?s economic situation.
At present, the practice of hegemonism can be seen in the world. The big nations are giving human rights, democracy and drug elimination as excuses in applying various means to dominate the small nations.
At this juncture, the government while building all sectors including the political, economic and social fields is exerting utmost efforts to stand firmly on the correct path.
Moreover, science and technology is advancing with high momentum in the world; thus, the nation is striving to get abreast of other nations. Due to such efforts, the nation was able to successfully implement the first short-term four-year plan and the second short-term five-year plan.
Efforts should be made with greater momentum to exceed the targets of the third short-term five-year plan beginning fiscal 2001-2002. Priority should be given to boosting production and minimizing wastage. Myan-mar can exist as a sovereign nation only when its economic, political and social sectors are developing on all fronts.
There are independent countries sovereignty of which is not firm or perpetual. The government is striving on all fronts to enable the one to stand firmly as a sovereign one and to protect it from falling under the domination of the big nations.
The government will not let an inch of the nation?s territory be lost and at the same time, it has no wish to intrude into or occupy other?s territory.
The nation is maintaining her cordial relations with other countries in accord with the five principles of peaceful co-existence and the 10 principles of Bandung Conference.
As Rakhine State is rich in natural resources, if all should strive to fully utilize them and to minimize wastage, it will surely become a developing state and will effectively help the national progress.
Rakhine State should strive to become a model region setting records in the agricultural and livestock breeding production sectors.
Commander Maj-Gen Aung Htwe noted the population of the state and efforts to ensure the rule of law, saying that the state is always striving to boost its production sector.
Paddy cultivation was carried out on 900,000 acres in 2000-2001. Plans are under way to exceed its monsoon and summer paddy cultivation targets during the five-year plan from 2001-2002 to 2005-2006.
Due to the cooperative endeavours of local authorities, departmental personnel and farmers, cultivation of beans and pulses, edible oil crops, kitchen crops and vegetables have exceeded the
respective targets.
He said efforts are being made to develop the farming sector including prawn breeding and poultry farming and explained the situation of border trade, tax revenues, services of the state and regional transport undertakings.
Brig-Gen Phone Swe, members of Rakhine State Peace and Development Council Commissioner U Khin Maung Myint and Rakhine State Police Commander Police Col Nyo Win and Secretary of Rakhine State Peace and Development Council Lt-Col Thein Kyaing explained regional deve-lopment endeavours.
