Members of parliament are to meet voters in their respective constituencies and brief them on what has been done while the parliament is in recess, Pyithu Hluttaw Speaker U Win Myint told representatives in Kayin State on June 18, 2016. The speaker urged the representatives to meet public needs through coordination with the departments concerned, stressing that a strong parliament begets a strong administrative system. He also gave guidance on the submission of motions and bills, saying that these proposals must be in the interest of the country and the people. “For the democracy to flourish, there must be the rule of law. And there is no guarantee of human rights without the rule of law,” he said, calling for concerted efforts to enable everybody to enjoy the fruits of democracy.
