Myanmar Ambassador, Ko Ko Latt, told his guests on Tuesday that his country is actively participating in international affairs based on the principle of peaceful co-existence. Further, speaking at his country’s 67th Independence Day reception at the Diplomatic Quarters, Latt said that since the opening Myanmar Embassy in Riyadh in 2007, the embassy has been getting excellent assistance.
The event was attended by Azzam Al-Gain, deputy foreign affairs minister and chief of protocol at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs along with members of the diplomatic corps.
“I would like to express my deep appreciation to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Abdullah and the royal family, the government and the people of the Kingdom for excellent assistance since the opening of Myanmar Embassy in Riyadh in 2007,” he said.
“I arrived here in 2013 and deeply believe that these developments are reflected in the good relations and cooperation between our two countries and hope to further enhance our cooperation and friendly relations in all spheres,” Latt observed.
“On behalf of the government and the people of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar, I would like to extend our sincere wishes for the personal well-being and good health to Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah and Crown Prince Salman, the deputy premier and the minister of defense,” he said.
