Senior General Min Aung Hlaing pointed out that just as the government is working to ensure the successful development of Yadanabon Cyber City, the regional government will also systematically implement measures for the development of the Yadanabon Myothit housing project.
Acting
President of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar and State Security and Peace
Commission Chairman Senior General Min Aung Hlaing, accompanied by Commission
Secretary and Joint Executive Chief General Ye Win Oo, members of the
inspection team, the Mandalay Region chief minister and officials, yesterday
morning inspected the Yadanabon Cyber City project near Pyinsa Village in
PyinOoLwin Township.
On
arrival at the Yadanabon Teleport building of the project site, the Senior
General and party heard reports by Union Minister for Construction U Myo Thant
on facts about the Yadanabon Myothit project, implementation of the project,
constrction of residential houses and buildings of the Yadanabon Teleport,
construction of roads, water supply, electrification and construction of
infrastructures in the project area, invitation of expression of interest(EOI)
for the project, implementation of the technological industrial zone, running
of industries and plans of the project, and Union Minister for Transport and
Communications U Mya Tun Oo on facts about the Yadanabon Myothit project,
implementation of the project in phases, administrative buildings of Myanma
Posts and Telecommunications, facts about the staff housing, buildings of the
Yadanabon Teleport Company Ltd, and matters related to industries in the Soft
Base Factories Area.
In
his response to the reports, the Senior General said that the Yadanabon Cyber
City project was originally implemented as a Silicon Valley to support the
development of national communication and information technologies.
He
recounted that during the second democratic government (2015-2020), the project
was transformed into the “New Mandalay Resort City” plan, resulting in the
suspension of Yadanabon Cyber City’s operations. Given that today’s era is an
IT era, the country must continue advancing technological development.
Therefore, in addition to the original visions of the Cyber City project, efforts
must now also focus on the development of artificial intelligence (AI)
technologies.
He
underscored that the project is intended to support the nation’s IT advancement
and serve as a major centre for manufacturing electronic products.
He
added that since the site is located near the Technological University
(Yadanabon Cyber City), it can be linked with the technological universities
and the universities for computer studies in Mandalay, Meiktila, and Kyaukse.
This will enable collaboration and provide the necessary human resources for
the project.
The
Senior General added that the government will restart and further develop the
Yadanabon Cyber City project, inviting both domestic and foreign investors
interested in participating.
He
noted that necessary land plots will be allocated for genuine investors who intend
to carry out actual business operations. The land plots within the project area
that were designated for business operations but remain unused, as well as
plots allocated for residential purposes where no housing has been built, will
be reviewed and regulated in accordance with existing rules and procedures.
The
Senior General underlined that just as the government is working to ensure the
successful development of Yadanabon Cyber City, the regional government will
also systematically implement measures for the development of the Yadanabon
Myothit housing project.
The
Senior General and party visited the Yadanabon Myothit Project by car.
At
the Technological University (Yadanabon Cyber City) under the Advanced Science
and Technology Department of the Ministry of Science and Technology, Union
Minister for Science and Technology Dr Myo Thein Kyaw reported to the Senior
General on construction of the lecture halls, the multipurpose hall, workshops
and gymns, giving lectures to students in relevant subjects, and requirements
of hostels for students and staff housing for teachers.
After
hearing the reports, the Senior General unveiled the plans to construct the
student hostels and staff housing for teachers. A plan is underway to supply
sufficient drinking water for the university.
The
Senior General and party viewed around the buildings and facilities of the
university in a motorcade.
