Gov’t welcomes youth participation in politics ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®® Yangon, 29 May The government is welcoming the participation of youths in the political sector to create a modern developed country in the future, said Union Minister at the President Office U Soe Thane on Thursday at a seminar on youth participation in political parties. He urged the youths to actively participate in building a peaceful and stable nation, with democracy at its core.

During the seminar organized by the Innovation and Action Aid in Yangon, two officials from the Danish Institute for Parties and Democracy- DIPD discussed their political experiences. U Ko Ko Gyi, General- Secretary of the 88 General, Peace and Open Society Group urged the new generation “to work hard to become professionals in their fields with new ideas and liberal views” so that they can build a new democratic nation. The older generations should create opportunities for the new generations and should let them learn from their mistakes, he added. The seminar was attended by members of 58 political parties and organizations. The workshop on youth participation in political parties will be held on Friday at the same venue to discuss sectors of priority for the youth and challenges. ®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®®® ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄
