▲Asterisk-marked
questions▲
U Saw
Sein Tun of Kayah State constituency 4 raised the first question asked if there
is a plan to upgrade Dawtama Nge Basic Education sub-High School in Dimawhso
Township.
Deputy
Minister for Education U Win Maw Tun replied that there were only 177 high
school students in the sub-High School and since it is only about a mile away
from Dimawhso Basic Education High School there it is not in the priority list
for upgrade in the 2019-2020 Academic Year. Furthermore at the moment the
school is permitted to teach high school subjects.
Similarly
U Myint Naing of Rakhine State constituency 5 asked if there is a plan to
upgrade Sin Oh Chaing Village Basic Education sub-High School in Kyauktaw
Township during 2019-2020 Academic Year. Here too Deputy Minister for Education
U Win Maw Tun replied that there were only 67 high school students in the
sub-High School and it is only about six miles away from Apaukwa Basic
Education High School and thus it is not in the priority list for upgrade
during 2019-2020 Academic Year. As in the reply made to earlier question the
school too is permitted to teach high school subjects said the Deputy Minister.
U Hla
San of Magway Region constituency 1 on the other hand asked if there is a plan
to provide teaching aid cars to government technical institutes and government
technical high schools in the same way as provided to No. 5 Industrial Training
Center (Magway). Deputy Minister for Education U Win Maw Tun replied that the
matter was submitted to the President’s Office and as permission was granted,
arrangements were being made to provide a total of 30 old vehicles for use as
teaching aids at a rate of 5 cars per school to government technical institutes
in Insein, Shwepyitha, Mandalay and PyinOoLwin, Japan-Myanmar Aung San
vocational school and teachers training school. More submissions were made to
do the same for remaining schools and it will be provided once permission is
