In his speech, the Vice-Senior General said that it was a coordination meeting to review the holding of the Diamond Jubilee Union Day on 12 February. Strong and weak points could be seen although work procedures were made under preparations to successfully hold the ceremony.

It is necessary to improve the strong points better and revise the weak points to be strong ones in similar ceremonies.

As the 75th Anniversary Union Day was a Diamond Jubilee celebration, the Chairman of the State Administration Council Prime Minister assigned duties to deeply and significantly hold the ceremony. Although it was a short time to make preparations for the ceremony, it was successfully held. Likewise, the Union flag which has been spending at the Yangon City Hall since 2016 was successfully conveyed to the Nay Pyi Taw Capital Hall.

Such successful results were based on cooperation and unity among Union level organizations, relevant government organizations, State service personnel and people as a fine tradition.

Some strong and weak points happened in the Diamond Jubilee Union Day despite successful holding. It is necessary to openly discuss sector-wise strong and weak points in order to successfully observe the Diamond Jubilee Independence Day with grander military parades and exhibitions by developing the strong points and improving the weak points from the Diamond Jubilee Union Day ceremony.
