| Beschrijving voorzijde | A finely engraved intaglio vignette of a Chinthe — the mythical lion-dragon guardian figure of Burmese temple architecture — occupies the left half of the note in dark brown tones, set against a multicolour guilloche underprint in red, blue, and tan. The numeral "5" appears in the upper left corner and is repeated in a decorative cartouche at the lower left, while Burmese script denominations are centered to the right of the Chinthe against an elaborate rosette guilloche background. A serial number in red is printed at the lower right, with a microprint legend reading "SECURITY PRINTING WAZ" running along the bottom margin. |

Myanmar's Security Printing Works came under the direct authority of the military government — the State Law and Order Restoration Council had renamed the country from Burma in 1989, and by the mid-1990s the central bank was firmly subordinate to SLORC's economic directives. The 5 Kyat denomination had limited practical purchasing power by this point; chronic inflation and a vast gap between the official exchange rate and the black-market rate had already gutted the lower denominations.
A print run just over twelve million is modest for a circulating low-value note, suggesting this issue was never intended as a workhorse denomination. Watermark security only — no security thread, no color-shifting ink.
