NORTH Korea’s Kim Jong Un would face the end of his regime if he used his nuclear weapons against the South, its president said Tuesday, as Seoul staged a parade showcasing its military prowess.

Fighter jets flew over downtown Seoul and tanks rolled through the streets, as South Korea displayed weaponry including its largest ballistic missile, the Hyunmoo-5, which is capable of destroying underground bunkers, for the first time.

The event, which marks Armed Forces Day in the South, comes as relations between the two Koreas are at one of their lowest points in decades, with Pyongyang declaring the South its “principal enemy” and moving nuclear-capable weapons to the border.

“If North Korea attempts to use nuclear weapons, it will face the resolute and overwhelming response of our military and the US and Republic of Korea alliance,” Seoul’s President Yoon Suk Yeol said.

“That day will be the end of the North Korean regime,” Yoon said, addressing thousands of service members gathered at Seoul Air Base for the event.

The Senior General altogether provided the needed data.

Similarly, the enumerators conduct census collection on the families of SAC

Vice-Chairman Deputy Prime Minister Vice-Senior General Soe Win, Pyithu Hluttaw Speaker U T Khun Myat, SAC Secretary General Aung Lin Dwe, Joint Secretary General Ye Win Oo and SAC Member General Maung Maung Aye at their respective houses.

Every country takes a national census every ten years as it has to set policies and projects to ensure proportionate development in social, economic, and management sectors, depending on the population received from the census.

The data from the census-collecting process is concerned not only with the government and ministries but also with each and every citizen of the country as they are the focal information for political, economic, social, defence and public affairs management sectors. The Ministry of Immigration and Population is leading the enumeration process of the population and household census, and it can be done successfully with public participation.

The 2024 enumeration process of the population and household census is being conducted to collect accurate population and socioeconomic data in time, adopt policies, projects, strategies and tactics for social, economic and management measures by conducting research on population and socioeconomic changes between 2014 and 2024, compile the necessary index in implementing the Myanmar Sustainable Development Plan (MSDP) and develop the national statistic system to contribute the national strategy. Although there were 41 questions in the 2014 census, there were 68 questions in 2024, adding 27 new questions to receive more precise data. Some of the examples of additional data questions are the main reasons for not joining school in the education sector and waste system or sanitation system for household data. These questions are practical facts for the government to consider in order to fulfil the needs of the people in the education, health, and social sectors. The census team will collect data at homes from 7 am to 6 pm, and they will inform the date in advance. The census-taking process is not concerned with whether the people have a household census form 66/6 or from 10, CSC, or whether they are ethnic people or citizens. However, all the data of the people in Myanmar territory will be enumerated within the census reference timeframe except for those who are not included. Moreover, the tax will not be levied, and action will not be taken against the possessions based on the census. There is no need to worry about the family members residing abroad as there is no occasion to take action. —MNA/KTZH
