A workshop on land resources management for rural and urban development projects was held in Nay Pyi Taw, yesterday. President U Thein Sein gave a speech, saying that the government will be able to settle landless people on newly-developed plots in accordance with urban and rural development plans after identifying the real landless people.  

Granting land to landless people is an important task in the process of socio-economic development and poverty. Regarding some of the main challenges in villages and towns, the President highlighted shortage of drinking water, lack of proper drainage and traffic congestions due to population increase, influx of migrant workers and increase of squatters along roads and railway lines.

In conclusion, he urged the participants to invite the public to help draft rural and urban development plans and to adopt systematic measures for land use in accordance with policies, laws, rules and regulations. At the meeting, Vice president U Nyan Tun also said that land resources management should be more transparent and link social and environmental issues, solves land disputes and set up a common goal for land-use. The land resources management should be taken into consideration of local requirements, the values of land alternative ways of land use in order to develop an effective system. The economic experts and officials from various ministries also discussed socio-economic development, environmental conservation and land-related cases.
