NAYPYIDAW: -- A cross-party committee formed to oversee the transition to the next government of Myanmar held its first meeting in Naypyidaw on Wednesday, with National League for Democracy Leader (NLD) Aung San Suu Kyi telling those assembled that she believed the transfer of power was on track to proceed smoothly.

The meeting was held at the offices of the Union Parliament’s Rule of Law Committee, which is chaired by Suu Kyi, and revolved around how the government’s ministries will hand over their responsibilities, ahead of the NLD’s preparations to take office following the party’s emphatic election win on Nov 8.

Win Htein, an NLD spokesman, said further discussions would continue. The committee wold likely meet about four days per week in order to discuss the power transition, he said.

The committee comprises members of President Thein Sein’s outgoing administration and senior NLD figures, with the next meeting to be chaired by Win Htein ad Union Minister Hla Tun.
