NATIONAL Defence and Security Council Office Executive Chief U Aung Lin Dwe, accompanied by the Kayah State Chief Minister, met town elders at the Loikaw Regional Operations Command in Loikaw yesterday.

After the meeting, the Executive Chief and party visited the model vegetable plantation in Nawngya (Ka) ward, and the relevant officials reported on the awareness campaigns for the farmers to promote the plantation areas, use modern farming techniques, utilize water effectively and adopt proper farming methods.

The Executive Chief and party then observed the perennial crops and vegetable plantations.

They also attended the ceremony to honour security force members at the Kayah State government office.

At the event, the Executive Chief stated that Kayah State is a state that possesses many strong foundations for development. It boasts well-known pagodas, fertile agricultural lands suitable for farming and livestock breeding, beautiful and scenic landscapes – rivers, land, forests, and mountains – and friendly and admirable ethnic traditional cultures.

Although Loikaw suffered damage due to terrorists, it is now being seen once again as a peaceful, pleasant, and beautiful city as a result of collective efforts. Moreover, security can ensure the continuous peace, stability and development of the entire state, including Loikaw. Therefore, the members of the security forces who are carrying out national defence and security duties should double their efforts.

He then provided the security force members with foodstuffs. The Executive Chief and party watched the music concert marking 74th Kayah State Day at the state stadium and cordially greeted the locals.
