PYITHU Hluttaw Speaker U Khin Yi yesterday welcomed the chairperson, secretary, and members of the Farmers Livelihood Development Foundation, joined by former Myanmar national athletes, during the 28‑day sitting of the Second Regular Session of the Third Pyithu Hluttaw.
The foundation officials and former national athletes reported on their work plans.
Speaking at the meeting, the Speaker said the Hluttaw’s responsibilities are broad, and that 22 committees have been formed to carry out their duties effectively. Among them are the Farmers Affairs Committee and the Health and Sports Committee. He encouraged those present to submit any difficulties they face or matters they wish to address through the relevant committees so that the Hluttaw can assist them. He noted that the Hluttaw serves as a bridge between the people who raise concerns and the government responsible for addressing them. He added that the Hluttaw’s doors are always open to those wishing to present their concern, and expressed his appreciation for their visit to observe the parliamentary proceedings.
In the same afternoon, he accepted the Sarpay Beikman Manuscript Award and the Pakokku U Ohn Pe Manuscript Award-winning books written and donated by Pyithu Hluttaw Representative Dr Aung Gyi from Kyaiklat Constituency. — MNA/KTZH
