She told the CNI, "We have been engaging in politics in the interests of the county and the people since 1988. In our party, like-minded people are doing what they can. Similarly, U Saw Than Myint's party is doing what they can. In my opinion, rules are tighter and deposits are higher. As we are politicians, we have enough money as an organization and focus on a region where we can win the elections. Our aim is peace and the interests of the people. We want peace and prosperity for the people."
