A seminar on “Geopolitics, Geoeconomics, Myan­mar’s Strategic Future and the Role of Hluttaw” was held yesterday afternoon in Nay Pyi Taw as part of ca­pacity-building training for Hluttaw representatives.

 

In his remarks, Pyithu Hluttaw Deputy Speaker Joint Coordinating Com­mittee on Hluttaw Devel­opment (JCC) Chair U Maung Maung Ohn said this seminar was the very first activity of the JCC, as its objective is to enhance the dignity and standards of Hluttaw while further strengthening the knowl­edge and capabilities of Hluttaw representatives. He encouraged partici­pants to examine Myan­mar’s current situation alongside global develop­ments and discuss how Parliament should con­tribute to addressing these challenges. He also called for interactive discussions between experts and rep­resentatives, expressing the hope that such capaci­ty-building seminars would enable the representatives to work together more ef­fectively for the benefit of the Hluttaw and the nation.

 

Three experts dis­cussed under different top­ics regarding geopolitical changes, geoeconomics and international affairs, and the Hluttaw repre­sentatives raised questions about what they wanted to know.

 

Following this, the Pyithu Hluttaw Deputy Speaker and JCC Chair­man reviewed and com­mented on the key issues discussed during the sem­inar.

 

The Deputy Speaker and JCC Chairman pre­sented honorariums to the experts who delivered the lectures. — MNA/KTZH
