I would like to share with you some of the photographs taken during my visit to Myanmar from October 29 to November 11, 2020, to head the Japanese government’s special delegation to observe the Southeast Asian country’s general election on November 8. After undergoing a week-long quarantine at a Yangon hotel as a precaution against the novel coronavirus, I started work as the mission chief by meeting with government and military leaders.
