A "nonsense ritual" not compatible with a democratic traditions.

ကာခ်ဳပ္ကို အေလးျပဳခိုင္းတဲ့အခ်ိန္
ေဒၚေအာင္ဆန္းစုၾကည္ တက္ခဲ့တဲ့ ၂ႏွစ္လုံးလုံး အေလးမျပဳခဲ့ဘူး
အားမနာတမ္းေျပရရင္ ကာခ်ဳပ္ကို အေလးျပဳဖို႔ မတန္လို႔အေလးမျပဳတာ
ဒါပဲ /မေက်နပ္ လဲ ?

In a democratic country , i wonder whether such ritual exists.
(After all HE is a puppet of a dictator ?).
i think such "nonsense ritual" is not compatible with a democratic tradition.
It should be abolished.
OR democratic representatives should walk out during such occasions.
ကာခ်ဳပ္ has to report to President.
President is normally a civilian or a veteran(an elected person).
ကာခ်ဳပ္ is a soldier appointed by the President.
ကာခ်ဳပ္ is not an elected person & does not represent people.
President is elected by the people , not by a dictator.
President is HEAD of Executive branch.
In a democratic country , there are 3 branches of govt., viz. Executive, legislative, Judiciary.
Parliament is legislative branch , one of the 3 highest bodies.
It is very improper to SALUTE a non-elected appointee.
