1. Acting President Duwa Lashi La says that there is no way to progress for the country and its citizens under the military dictatorship
At the Cabinet Meeting (8/2023) of the National Unity Government held on February 28, Acting President Duwa Lashi La said the following:
“There is no way out or way to advance for the country and the people under the military dictators. Our National Unity Government is made up of multi-ethnic groups, and we are willing to expand it to include more diverse ethnicities. Only our government can guarantee the country’s stability and foreign investment”
The Acting President asserted that the stance of the National Unity Government is to abolish the dictatorship and establish a stable government.
“As seen by the numerous coups throughout history, the current military council cannot bring stability to the country,” said the Acting President.

At the meeting of the CDM Success Committee held on February 26, Union Prime Minister Mahn Winn Khine Thann remarked the following:
“Since they [CDMers] have scarified their lives for the future of the country and are moving forward with confidence, for more than two years, the revolution has been at a good pace and has continuing to exert strong pressure on the dictator, the terrorist military. Because they continue to fight with this spirit, now the world is paying more attention to the Myanmar issue without being able to turn its back on Myanmar anymore.”

At a public meeting with Myanmar people in Southern California held on February 23, NUG Foreign Minister Daw Zin Mar Aung said that the National Unity Government is working to ensure the evil political system never re-emerges.
“The revolution will not end with the fall of this military council. Our objective is to never re-emerge this kind of evil political system in the future, which allows bad habits and bad characters to seize power at will. We aim to reform the entire system,” said Union Minister Daw Zin Mar Aung.

“Our fellow public! We would like to request that all drivers of vehicles using the Putao-Myitkyina Highway refrain from transporting their goods under tarpaulin covers starting March 1, 2023, instead using transparent covers if necessary and accepting inspections.”
