Union Minister for Immigration and Population U Myint Kyaing met Ms Gwyn Lewis, United Nations Resident Coordinator and Humanitarian Coordinator ad interim for Myanmar, and her delegation at the ministry’s reception hall in Nay Pyi Taw. They discussed visa and stay permit procedures for UN agencies working in Myanmar, the tripartite memorandum of understanding among the ministry, UNDP, and UNHCR on repatriation of displaced persons from Rakhine State, and temporary residence permissions granted in Yangon to UN and international NGO staff and their families from Rakhine State.

The two sides also spoke openly about ongoing cooperation with UN agencies, including UNFPA, which has supported the ministry on population and development programs for years, and explored ways to strengthen future collaboration with other UN bodies in Myanmar. Deputy Minister U Htay Hlaing, Permanent Secretary U Min Hein, Director-General of the Department of Immigration U Ye Tun Oo, and other officials also attended the meeting.
