The Session was opened by the Governor of the Province, who in his speech to the nobles told them that in choosing occupants for posts they should show no partiality, but should choose according to merit and for the welfare of the country, and that he hoped the honourable Nobility of Kashin would strictly fulfil its duty as it had done in previous elections, and would justify their sovereign's high confidence in them.
La sesión inaugural la abrió el Gobernador con un discurso en el que exhortó a los nobles a que eligieran los funcionarios, no por simpatía personal, sino por sus méritos y mirando el bien de la Patria. Añadió que él, el Gobernador, su esposa y la alta nobleza de Kachin, cumplirían, como en otras ocasiones, tan sagrado deber y no traicionarían la honrosa confianza del Monarca.
