    SHAPING A BRIGHTER SHARED FUTURE THROUGH HIGH-QUALITY COOPERATION PAGE-8 (OPINION) The Global New Light of Myanmar NEXT GENERATION PLATFORM 28 APRIL 2019 THE GLOBAL NEW LIGHT OF MYANMAR INTERVIEW ITTLE are we aware that, often in life, our very fears are capable enough to bring out our greatest strengths to limelight. Only in L the face of the mightiest obstacles can we discover our fortes. Life is full of ups and downs, and there really is no man who can outwardly claim that By Sandy D life for him has been a bed full of roses. Consequently, it Grade 11, ICEC is wise to keep in mind that the most beautiful flowers MoHT: Showcasing unique culture, way of life, traditions on have concealed underlying pricks and thorns. Indeed, it is wistful thinking to wish for a life free from hardships. However, “Sweet are the uses of adversity, which, like the toad, ugly and venomous, wears yet a precious jewel in its head,” and so the great playwright William Shakespeare had suggested. One can firmly say that dreadful they may be, adversities actually turn out to be blessings in disguise. In Darwin’s theory of evolution, it is stated that there takes place a struggle for existence, and through the process of ‘survival of the fittest’, the dominating party of our planet is ultimately determined. Surely, a man is who he can be due to the difficulties he has duly encountered and overcome. Perhaps, if he were to give up midway, he would only be left with the bitter taste of defeat as a result.

  • Burma's 2015 Parliamentary Elections: Issues for Congress
    Burma’s 2015 Parliamentary Elections: Issues for Congress March 28, 2016 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R44436 Burma’s 2015 Parliamentary Elections: Issues for Congress Summary The landslide victory of Aung San Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy (NLD) in Burma’s November 2015 parliamentary elections may prove to be a major step in the nation’s potential transition to a more democratic government. Having won nearly 80% of the contested seats in the election, the NLD has a majority in both chambers of the Union Parliament, which gave it the ability to select the President-elect, as well as control of most of the nation’s Regional and State Parliaments. Burma’s 2008 constitution, however, grants the Burmese military, or Tatmadaw, widespread powers in the governance of the nation, and nearly complete autonomy from civilian control. One quarter of the seats in each chamber of the Union Parliament are reserved for military officers appointed by the Tatmadaw’s Commander-in-Chief, giving them the ability to block any constitutional amendments. Military officers constitute a majority of the National Defence and Security Council, an 11-member body with some oversight authority over the President. The constitution also grants the Tatmadaw “the right to independently administer and adjudicate all affairs of the armed services,” and designates the Commander-in-Chief of Defence Services as “the ‘Supreme Commander’ of all armed forces,” which could have serious implications for efforts to end the nation’s six-decade-long, low-grade civil war. For Congress and the Obama Administration, the election results and a transition period that will last several months raise a number of questions for U.S.
