country. Sanctions hurt the interest of our people. For that reason, there
were no job opportunities in our country. If you would like to see democracy
thrive in our country, you should take the necessary actions to encourage
this by easing the sanctions that were placed on our country.”
The 66-year old added however that the military, which has governed Burma

suggestions that Miss Suu Kyi could join the cabinet after the April
elections. “We acknowledge that reforms have been made in the country
and we welcome the reforms. However, we don’t consider the reforms complete
yet,” Nyan Win said.
