Deputy Minister for Information U Ye Tint visited the Department of Information and Pub­lic Relations and the Popa TV relay station in Kyaukpadaung Township, NyaungU District, in Mandalay Region, on 19 November.

 

He encouraged the staff members at the li­brary at Kyaukpadaung Township IPRD to spend more time reading. He then checked the status of the library use and settings.

 

Since the objectives of the Information Min­istry are to inform, to educate and to entertain, he instructed the staff to inform the public of the state’s operations and objectives, bridging the public with Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises through in-person interviews and reporting, of­fering mobile library services to the departments and schools to foster readership, educating the students for physical and intellectual growth through school lectures, and organizing summer classes for youth development.
