Phyo Min Thein, Yangon chief minister, was greeted at Yangon International Airport by 10 protesters on his return from Singapore on July 6.
“The chief minister said in Singapore that the country does not need the ‘Ma Ba Tha’ [Patriotic Association of Myanmar]. There are other religious organisations in the country. We object to the remarks on Buddhism made by the chief minister,” a protester said.
The chief minister paid a four-day study visit to the city-state and met Myanmar migrants. He told them that the country did not need the Ma Ba Tha as there was the State Sangha Maha Nayaka Committee. (Courtesy of elevenmyanmar.com)
