The Congress reflects the concerted efforts and achievements of academia, researchers and service personnel in the field of basic, applied and health systems research. Multi-stakeholder involvement under favorable conditions while implementing the research projects may lead to constructive approach of evidence-based findings towards formulating strategies for health and health-related policy and programmes. Each and every year, the Congress brings both national and international researchers together for exchanging their views, thoughts and innovative ideas to serve as a driving force in their future plans to meet the specific health needs of the country. This is indeed an essential platform for mutual exchange of knowledge, expertise, experiences, opinions and lessons learned between senior and junior scientists from various disciplines through the responsible conduct of health research. Ministry of Health encourages health systems strengthening efforts alongside with built-in operational research component for maternal, new-born and child health, emerging and reemerging infectious diseases, non-communicable diseases, and environmental health issues as well as for technology development. The complex nature of research problems in the country calls for multi-sectoral actions that require strong political commitment and health sector reforms at multi-level such as national, state/regional, and township levels, down to the grass-roots.

    Children in Burma (Myanmar)

    Children as Beneficiaries and Participants in Development Programs: A Case Study in Burma (Myanmar) Karl Goodwin-Doming Faculty of Arts Department of Social Inquiry & Community Studies Victoria University Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy June 2007 Abstract This study seeks to understand the dynamics and processes of community development programs for children in Burma (Myanmar). It examines the ethical dimensions of children's participation, critiques the extent of participation of young people in community development activity, explores the barriers and avenues for increased participation and presents recommendations based on lived experience which can be used to formulate policies that will enable/encourage greater participation. The development industry reaches to almost all areas of the globe and is not confined by national boundaries, ethnicity, age, gender or other social stratification. One of the most topical issues in contemporary development regards the rights of the child. It is an area of increasing interest to United Nations agencies and to human rights groups such as Amnesty International and the International Labour Organisation. In addition, a number of international programs have been created to focus upon improving the global situation of children, such as the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and Mandela and Machel's "Global Movement for Children." Such interest in the situation of children, however, rarely includes discussion of the ethical issues involved in the construction of children as appropriate subjects of development. Even rarer is examination or discussion of the culturally and historically contingent nature of assumptions about children and childhood that are built into many programs that focus upon children.

CONTENTS Foreword 6 Burma: The Quiet Violence - Introduction 7 The Quiet Violence 9 My Outlook and Attitudes Towards Art and Life by Myint Swe 18 PLATES: Paintings of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi 19 PLATES: Other Paintings 41 Myint Swe’s Biography 98 FOREWORD Jørn Middelborg Thavibu Gallery Thavibu Gallery is pleased to present the collection of political paintings, “Burma: The Quiet Violence,” by Myint Swe. The collection features 38 paintings that reflect the artist’s concerns about the detention of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and the discouraging socio-political environment in Burma. The paintings were executed in Rangoon between 1997 and 2005 and secretly transported to Bangkok where they have been stored for some years. However, due to the worsening situation in Burma, it has become necessary to remind a wider audience of the atrocities of the military junta. And while the paintings of artists such as Myint Swe will not change the political climate of Burma, we applaud his courage as he and other artists risk their lives and the future of their families by commenting on their country’s grave and tragic state.

    Burma's 2015 Parliamentary Elections: Issues for Congress

    Burma’s 2015 Parliamentary Elections: Issues for Congress Michael F. Martin Specialist in Asian Affairs March 28, 2016 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.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.

Two years after its inauguration, the BMRI organized its first Research Conference in which researchers from the BMRI, medical institutes, and the Burma Army Medical Crops presented a total of twelve scientific papers. Since then, the Research Conferences were organized annually in the various categories such as in the form of Research Congresses, Research Conferences or Research Paper Reading Sessions amounting to a total number of forty events by the year 2012. It has been almost fifty years since the publication of the Index of the first Medical Research Conference. It is felt that the listing of the Indexes of all Research Conference is needed to be made available to researchers and medical students who wish to obtain information for reference. This Index Book is compiled to consolidate the indexes of all research conferences which will serve as a data base and covers all research papers presented at the Health Research Conferences during 1965 to 2011.
