State Peace and Development Council Chairman Senior General Than
Shwe's Union Day message
Esteemed national brethren of
the Union
On the occasion
of the 56th Anniversary of the Union Day of the Union of
Myanmar, I, with goodwill, wish auspiciousness to all the
national races of the Union.
Myanmar is a
Union in which various national races such as Kachin, Kayah,
Kayin, Chin, Bamar, Mon, Rakhine, Shan and so on are living in
all parts. So, every region of the Union itself is a mini-Union,
where the different national races are living together in unity.
The brethren, who were born in the Union, are living in harmony,
in weal or woe and through thick and thin.
