interview with Daughter of late Prime Minister U NU
If Myanmar could hold its Democracy election in 2010, the elected representatives of people and military side will be meeting in senate for the first time in 22 years. It may be the first time people from both side will work together for its own country. On the other hand there are many difference opinions on government approved referendum and coming election. At the same time, Canada-based United Democratic Party of Myanmar (UDP) has announced their executive member list which includes Daw Mya than than Nu, Cho Cho Kyaw Nyein and Nay Si Ba Swe, the children of late leaders. So we explore the ideas of Daw Mya Than Than Nu, who is a daughter of late prime minister U Nu as below.
QUESTION ….. We saw your name in the list of executive members of Canada-based United Democratic Party of Myanmar (UDP).What you would like to say about that? Do you have a plan to enter coming election as UDP member?
Daw Mya Than Than Nu………….It is a just their announcement. I don’t know what is their attitude on it? As far as I know, there is no connection between the exiled political parties and local activists. For me, I have no problem whoever they are. I can cooperate with everyone. Some happy when they heard UDP’s announcement. I really appreciate that their saying about to find a solution together on the issues of difficulties which Myanmar people are facing.
QUESTION …………..If so, will u take place in election?
Daw Mya Than Than Nu… We are still watching the situation. So Far, there are no election committee and no election law. For me, I want to contest in election. I want to show I am the same with the people. I want to take part in election as individual or as a party candidate.
QUESTION ………. There are many difference opinions on coming election. How do we approach to current situation of Myanmar?
Daw Mya Than Than Nu…………..We have to work together. There are many people like me and some will also take place in election after their negotiation with government.
Anyhow, the best answer is working together. After the election, it won’t be a big deal whoever wins in election. The best answer is to take part in election.
QUESTION ……….Not only in you, we also heard the news about other late leader’s daughter
Will take race in election. What do you want to say about it?
Daw Mya Than Than Nu ……….. I don’t know their idea. They might have their own attitude.
If we need to work together, it will be good. We have known each other since our parent.Cho Cho Kyaw Nyein and Nay Si Ba Swe are not strangers for me. But I still don’t know what their own attitude is.
QUESTION ………….Can you estimate how many parties will take part in election?
Daw Mya Than Than Nu ………..It is difficult to say that. We can estimate the number of parties when election law comes out. We can say to enter election or not if only we see the election‘s rules. Now it is difficult to estimate it.
QUESTION ………….Where were you at the time of 1990 election? What do you think about it?
Daw Mya Than Than Nu……………….I was in India. I voted for election through embassy.
QUESTION … Now there are third force groups which try to negotiate between Government and opposition groups in here. What do you think about their role in Myanmar political society?
Daw Mya Than Than Nu……………….It will be great if they can do it. I don’t know exactly about NGO groups and cease fire groups who working on it. But it will be great if they can negotiate between government and oppositions. The biggest issue is conflicts between them. I welcome it if they can work together. I don’t know other people‘s idea. We should not have seen our own benefit. We should not have seen our party.
We should see about state and its people. The conflict is the biggest challenge for us.
We need negioation. Third forces group is good. Even we don’t have third force, we can cooperate each other. We are not the kids. We need to hand together.
QUESTION ………. Former military government seized the power at 1962 and imposed one party polices. But now current government is looking forward to democracy election. They also fixed time schedule. What do you want to say on it?
Daw Mya Than Than Nu……………….It will be good if they can do it properly.
They need to allow the political parties to work freely. It won’t be good if the parties could not work properly.
QUESTION ……….. There will be activities of political parties before 2010 election. Could you tell me how much they can work?
Daw Mya Than Than Nu………… I want to tell you about my experience in India. In India, the role of election committee is amazing. The commissioner is powerful as a cabinet minister .He can decide freely. We need to have this kind of election committee in Myanmar.
The results of India elections are amazing. The results are mostly honest. I wish our election could be like India.
QUESTION ….. You lived in India for many years. Do you find any weakness of India which
is a biggest Democracy country in the world?
Daw Mya Than Than Nu. Yes, they have some weakness. But they are very strong in justice. If you find out any unfair cases in election pools, you can file to high court. They have many advantages in poll system. They use the good quality ink for voting. Each party has two weeks for election campaign. But it is enough because Parties are already founded.
QUESTION …….What do you think about recent detainees?
Daw Mya Than Than Nu………….. As I mention it before, oppositions need to launch their campaign freely in a certain condition. Government always says unity .If they are looking forward the real unity, they should think about it. In India, even detainees can participate in election.
QUESTION…….. There will be the first voting for people who below the age of 37. But they don’t have proper awareness for election. So, what do you think about the role of media in this election?
Daw Mya Than Than Nu…………..Medias need to be balance and fairness. We Burmese people still don’t know the result of democracy. We should not have done the wrong thing which does not mean real democracy. We need to work in a certain condition. Authority needs to allow us to work in a certain condition. Medias need to work in certain boundary.

Yangon local journal said their reporter did not breach any ethic or rules and regulations
Weekly Eleven on its website (www.first-11.com) criticized the two media outfits saying it was an “act of violating the journalistic code”, for allegedly using a second source based story related to its reporter Win Myint Kyaw, saying neither sought confirmation from the journal.
that website stated as follow .
The news of Reporter Ko Win Myint Kyaw of the Weekly Eleven News Journal broadcasted by the RFA and the Mizzima News have deviated from the actual event. The followings are the explanation of the Weekly Eleven News Journal about the recent incident.
The report from the RFA was that Reporter Ko Win Myint Kyaw of the Weekly Eleven News Journal bribed to a security employee of the Yangon General Hospital to take the photos of 13-year old A/H1N1 infected girl after saying he was a reporter of RFA; that he was quarantined at the Yangon General Hospital as soon as the incident has just happened; that he met with the responsible doctor after entering the room of the patient; that the authorities have kept him.
Moreover the Mizziama news agency reported with the so-called quote of a senior doctor that the young journalist did not use surgical mask and that he took the photos of A/H1N1 infected girl after bribing the security employee at the scene.
The real incident was that Ko Win Myint Kyaw and Ko Wai Yan Phyo Oo, the reporters of the Weekly Eleven News Journal, went to the Yangon General Hospital to cover the news in the morning of 28 June 2009. On the way, Ko Win Myint Kyaw was wearing the surgical mask. They first met with the deputy superintendent of the hospital. The latter suggested to interview with the medical superintendent of the hospital. Having known the A/H1N1 patient was being accommodated at the Tetanus Ward, they proceeded to there, and where they saw only one security employee. As he did not obstruct them, Ko Win Myint Kyaw went straight into the room of A/H1N1 patient. However, Ko Wai Yan Phyo Oo did not follow him, and waited for him at the outside of quarantine area. Ko Win Myint Kyaw took the photo of the patient at about 12 feet away from the latter for only a few seconds, and then he immediately went out of the room. While a responsible person of the hospital asked Ko Win Myint Kyaw if he was a doctor of a certain ward, he replied that he was just a journalist, not a doctor. Then Ko Win Myint Kyaw and Ko Wai Yan Phyo Oo returned from the Yangon General Hospital.
On the way back to the office, the two journalists went to the house of H1N1 patient located at the Wingaba Road of Bahan Township. They met only with some responsible persons of the quarter outside the house.
One of the responsible persons told them that they could not be allowed to enter the house; that the responsible doctors came to the house; the patient was getting relieved from the H1N1 flu. The responsible person of the quarter asked them where they come from. They replied they are from a news journal. After taking the photo of the house from outside, they returned to office. After that, due to the request of some responsible persons for the welfare of the public, Ko Win Myint Kyaw was sent to the Yangon General Hospital by the own program of the Weekly Eleven News Journal. Then, under the management of Dr. Nu Nu Thar, the medical superintendent of the Yangon General Hospital, he was preceded to Waibargi Hospital.
In this recent event, the RFA and the Mizzima News neglected on the strenuous efforts of a local journalist in covering a breaking news, and broadcasted that the journalist bribed the security employee of the hospital to take the photo of H1N1 patient; that he did not wear any facial protection mask. These news agencies broadcasted such random news without asking the reliable data to the journal, and their reports did not accord with the ethics of media persons. The responsible persons of the Weekly Eleven News Journal can answer to the questions under the rules and regulations of the country. However, these foreign news agencies recklessly posted unconfirmed news on their websites. Therefore, the Weekly Eleven News Journal strongly opposes to such irresponsible reports of RFA and Mizzama News.
It has been learnt that as Reporter Ko Win Myint Kyaw was not infected with A/H1N1 flu, or he did not suffer illness, he will be discharged from the Waibargi Hospital after 10 days of observation.
Wrong report of the Voice Weekly
The news writing of the ‘Voice Weekly’ Vol.5, No.35 (6-12 June, 2009), ‘… a reporter who interviewed with the 13 year-old A/H1N1 infected girl…’ stated under the headline news “A total of 203 people, including one reporter, observed suspect of A/H1N1” did not accord with the actual event.
In fact, Reporter Win Myint Kyaw did not interview with A/H1N1 infected girl.
