1. Union Minister U Tin Tun Naing says that all of the Early Partnership Program of the National Unity Government is guaranteed by the success of the Spring Revolution
January 15, 2023
Union Minister U Tin Tun Naing told Radio NUG that all of the Early Partnership Program of the National Unity Government is guaranteed by the success of the Spring Revolution at the press conference on the future work to be carried out by the Ministry of Planning, Finance and Investment on January 15, as follows:
“We sold Treasury Bonds. Next, we sold the properties that were illegally occupied by the terrorist military leader, and then we sold plots of land and housing projects on the land owned by the military. All of these are guaranteed by means of the revolution. Individual people invest in the success of this revolution. Those are all guaranteed only by the success of the revolution.”
The Union Minister U Tin Tun Aung also said that domestic and foreign investors will be invited for the Mogok gem mining rights as the first project of the NUG-MoPFI Early Partnership Program, and that affordable housing and high-end condominium investment projects will be introduced and sold in the last week of January.
Union Minister of Electricity and Energy U Soe Thura Tun also clarified:
“The government has 51 percent of the rights in the Mogok gem mining partnership program. The entrepreneur who is granted permission will be allowed to operate with a 49 percent share. In doing so, we make sure that the mining block will be beneficial to the entrepreneur and the investment amount will be reasonable. The blocks are also arranged systematically.”
Moreover, Union Minister U Tin Tun Naing said that the Spring Development Bank, the first bank to be founded by the National Unity Government, will sell ICO tokens to the general public, as follows:
“Regarding the Spring Development Bank, we will operate it with modern technology rather than the usual conventional banking system. In this regard, the bank will start selling initial coin offerings (ICO) tokens to the public, which are based on blockchain technology. At the same time, the bank will accept deposits from the public.”
The Union Minister said that the activities of the Spring Development Bank are intended to start by the end of February and that the public will be informed about the bank soon.

“During this period, the NUG government is working to fight the entrenched military dictatorship by setting a one-year strategic plan to conquer it within a year. In our analysis of the past year, we all know that the terrorist military group tried to seize power but failed. Now, in international affairs, the terrorist military council is becoming more and more isolated, and the international sanctions are increasing step by step.”
Moreover, in the NUG one-year strategic plan, five sectors and five formats of combat were said to have been identified and are being implemented in order to win the military council politically, to remove the businesses that support the military council, for the military council not to be internationally recognized, etc.
