NLD hosts ‘Road to Change’ photo exhibition
YANGON - The National League for Democracy organised a photo exhibition covering its recent election campaign titled ‘Road to Change’, featuring the photos of its chairwoman Aung San Suu Kyi, NLD patron Tin Oo and the candidates in Yangon Region.
All were taken by photographer Lin Wah. From 97, 30 photos were sold at the price range of Ks10,000 to Ks350,000. The one claiming the highest price featured Suu Kyi. The buyer was Kyaw Si Thu.
Lin Wah said: “I went to Southern District of Yangon Region and took photos during the election campaign period. I didn’t intend to hold the exhibition. The main purpose of the exhibition is to show the involvement of the public in the election."
He said that he would donate half of the money to the NLD’s social assistance charity.
He continued: “I named the exhibition ‘Road to Change’ because Suu Kyi uses that expression, and I like it. The public got involved in the campaign in order to change the whole country. The exhibition shows a total of 97 photos.”
The NLD won 255 seats in the Lower House, 135 seats in the Upper House, 475 seats in state and region parliaments and 21 ethnic representative seats.
