Military chief has just released an
official announcement (Picture attached) that the military would honor the
election results and that the meeting would take place with Aung San Su Kyi
once the election results/announcements are officially concluded and winner is
officially declared.
This is, in my opinion, a very
professional, positive and pro-active action by the Military. Well done.
This action would go a long way to give much
needed reassurance to the general public and to all the stakeholders in the
country’s economy/businesses including local and foreign owners, employees, and
their families.
What more could we ask for?
Speaker of the House and former Military Chief, General Shwe Mann, had
officially acknowledged in the press regarding his election defeat to the NLD
candidate a few hours after polling stations were closed.
Moreover, he had called to the winning NLD candidate to congratulate him officially (at 6:30am!!!) and offered any assistance the new incumbent candidate might need from him. This
shows his sincerity and willingness to help build the country, not about
himself, but about the progress of the country. My deepest respect to General
Shwe Mann.
Acting military linked party
chief, U Htay Oo (a close friend of President U Thein Sein), within 24 hours after the votes, acknowledged his
defeat in the press openly. At the same time he and his other colleagues re-assured
that the current government would honor the election results. This shows that
he too is going to put country and people ahead of himself. Thank you, U Htay
Oo and colleagues.
