New Year messages for the people

On January 1, Notable Myanmar officials delivered New Year’s messages to the people of Myanmar on the official website of the President’s Office. The following are excerpts:

President U Thein Sein:

“I am confident that the year 2016 will create golden opportunities, both in politics and economics. However, seizing these opportunities requires unusual effort.

“People must be involved in the political process to achieve success in democratic reforms, to ensure sustainable peace, to guarantee freedom for each and every citizen, to ensure equal protection by the law and to promote the quality of life. All citizens are required to exert effort, preserving the patriotic spirit and being willing to be involved in nation-building tasks, performing whatever duties assigned on them. I make an earnest request to each and every citizen to struggle hard to achieve correct thinking. I wish all the people of Myanmar great success.” (Courtesy of Mizzima)
