Asked to comment on the situation
that led to Mr. Bill Richardson’s dropping out of the Advisory Board to the
Committee for Implementations of the Recommendations on Rakhine State, Deputy
Information Minister U Aung Hla Tun said: “I’m so sorry that he brought up a
hidden agenda that was beyond the mandate of the Board he belonged to.
Actually, as far as I understand the President is the only person who has the
power to deal with an ongoing court case. For other people, it could be
tantamount to demonstrating outright contempt of court.”
“Nobody should use this case for
their personal advantages such as popularity or publicity.”
“I’d like to request all not to
apply any pressure on the government in connection with this case because
pressure can be counterproductive at times.”
