Myanmar's SNLD not offered vice president position: general secretary

Sai Nyunt Lwin, general secretary of the Shan Nationalities League for Democracy (SNLD), said on March 7 that the SNLD was offered a cabinet position by the National League for Democracy (NLD) but not a vice president position.

He said the offer was made about two months ago.

"Yes, an offer was made. It's a cabinet position, not a vice president position. It's wrong if you say it's a vice president position. It's right if you say a cabinet position was offered," he explained.

He added that the SNLD will send one nominee to the NLD within one or two days and that the nominee will not be an MP. (Courtesy of The Nation)
