four compartments and which would be built in the plot of lands owned by the
Ministry.
Union Minister for Labour,
Immigration and Population U Thein Swe replied that the Ministry has to
implement the sector-wise prioritization due to the budget constraints. In
doing so, the ministry took top priority to the construction of rooms for
storing records and other offices, and the second priorities went to housing
units for the civil servants. The budget allocation, to renovate and construct
the building, would be requested and which would be implemented those processes
once the funding request had been granted.

constituency asked if there was a plan to open a police outpost or a police
station in Varlone (Wayluwon Camp), Thesae Village- tract, Falam Township, Chin
State. Regarding this query, Deputy Minister for Home Affairs Maj-Gen Aung Thu
