Deputy Speaker promises legal changes

Laws intentionally enacted to oppress the people must be amended or cancelled, said Aye Tha Aung, the Deputy Speaker of the Upper House.

At a seminar on the new political landscape and the role of civil-society organisations (CSOs), jointly organised by the Thanlyin social organisation and Triangle Women’s Support Group, he said: “The Parliament is influenced by a majority of NLD representatives who are trying to enact new laws necessary for the people.

“When looking back at existing laws, we found many that protect the government and oppress the people. These laws must be amended or cancelled,” Aye Tha Aung said. (Courtesy of elevenmyanmar.com)
