Chin National Day is a distinguished day on which the Chin ethnic people, together with their ethnic brethren born of the Union, strove with unity and a strong Union spirit to oppose colonial rule, fight for independence, abolish the feudal system, strengthen solidarity among all hill and plain ethnic na­tionalities, and transform the system of rule by traditional chiefs into a democratic system of governance.

Under the current circumstances, the occurrence of riots and violent acts, violations of the rule of law, and numerous destruc­tive actions that could lead to the disintegration of the nation in various parts of the country, including some areas of Chin State, poses a grave danger to the country.

It is necessary to be mindful that when unity collapses, and people take up arms driven by misguided ideas and self-interest, fighting one another, the nation may fall into decline and ulti­mately lose its sovereignty. To prevent such a situation from arising, the one essential re­quirement is the strengthen­ing of the spirit of the Union.

In ethnic regions and in rural areas far from urban centres, it has been observed that due to language barriers, limited educational support, and other challenges, there are low levels of education and limited access to learning opportunities. At present, in some areas, including Chin State, armed violence, disrup­tions, destruction, and threats have prevented schools from reopening. As a result, many local ethnic students are suf­fering significant losses in their education.

In reality, Chin people live dispersed across various parts of Myanmar together with other ethnic nationali­ties. Likewise, in Chin State, people of different ethnic backgrounds—including gov­ernment staff and religious personnel—are residing and dutifully serving while work­ing together with goodwill for the development of Chin State. Since the development of Chin State cannot be achieved by the Chin ethnic people alone, the national brethren are col­lectively contributing their efforts in unity. They are also sharing knowledge and skills to support the State’s progress.

Just as Chin ethnic people and various other national races live together hand in hand across the country in both hill and plain regions, so too in Chin State, Chin nationals and ethnic people from different regions are serving in their respective duties. Therefore, all ethnic people should cooperate in various sectors with a spirit of fraternity, emphasizing the development of Chin State and improving the social and economic lives of future generations. They must also be able to overcome attempts by external elements to incite division and create discord among ethnic nationalities.
