The Mon Unity Party (MUP) has urged local residents to contact its parliamentary representative offices across Mon State, saying the offices will closely listen to public concerns and help address local needs in a timely manner.
MUP parliamentary representatives announced through their social media pages that the offices were opened to serve as a bridge between the public and parliament while providing direct assistance and responding quickly to local demands.
A source close to the MUP said the offices are intended to allow representatives to work more closely with local communities and help resolve public concerns more effectively.
The offices have reportedly been opened in five townships where the Mon Unity Party won by large margins, including Ye, Thanbyuzayat, Mudon, Chaungzon, and Paung townships.
“Office hours are normally from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Office staff will record discussions with visitors and connect them with the relevant parliamentary representatives. We will try to solve issues as much as possible based on public interest,” a source close to the MUP told IMNA.
MUP representatives also encouraged residents to directly discuss their difficulties and needs with the offices, saying mutual cooperation would help improve regional development.
The source added that residents living in areas without parliamentary offices can also communicate through the Mon Unity Party’s social media pages.
A Mon youth said that if the announcements are genuinely intended to address public hardships, the representatives should provide 24-hour service and include contact phone numbers for easier communication.
The youth added that one of the most urgent issues requiring parliamentary intervention is electricity distribution and that representatives should work together with experts and local business leaders to solve regional development problems.
“The most urgent issue that needs cooperation is electricity. Township electricity departments, local business owners, and experts who can support regional development should work together to find solutions,” he said.
Currently, the military junta’s parliamentary meetings have been suspended and are expected to resume in July.
During the parliamentary recess, some Mon Unity Party representatives from the People’s Parliament, National Parliament, and Mon State Parliament have reportedly been carrying out field activities related to regional development projects in their constituencies.
Other political parties are also reportedly planning to open parliamentary representative offices in areas where they won strong public support.
