📌📌 4. Thinni District Police Accelerate Burmese Language Learning to Overcome Communication Barriers
October 27
The Thinni District Police Force in Special Region 1 of the Union of Myanmar has been intensifying its Burmese language learning program to address communication difficulties, according to Kokang News Network, the media department of the Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army (MNDAA).
The district police reportedly recognized the importance of ethnic languages in carrying out their duties and have therefore strengthened their Burmese language and daily speaking courses.
The training aims to help officers overcome language-related challenges they encounter in field operations, enhance inter-ethnic communication and cooperation, and ensure that police officers perform their duties effectively and professionally.
In the course, deputy police chiefs, departmental officers, and instructors are actively participating as learners, setting an example for 20 police personnel who are also taking part attentively.
The program is conducted in the evening hours to avoid interference with regular duty schedules.
Since Thinni District is home to many different ethnic communities, the ability to overcome language barriers is seen as essential to improving public service quality, ethnic unity, and social development. The Thinni District Administration Committee had also previously organized similar Burmese language and communication courses, the report added.
This report was filed by Radio NUG correspondent Ko Khant.
