State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi gave the opening speech at yesterday’s UPDJC meeting in Nay Pyi Taw, saying Myanmar’s economy cannot be sustained without peace in the long term.
“This meeting is very important for all of us. Only peace can make our people harmonious and progressive. If there is no peace, any economy would collapse, no matter how highly developed it is. No economy can be sustained if there is no peace in the long term. That’s why peace is very important for us. However, we will not disregard social and economic sectors because of the peace process. We will handle them concurrently,” she said.
“We want to build a strong and genuine Union. For that, support from all ethnic people is the key,” Suu Kyi said. (Courtesy of elevenmyanmar.com)
