Abstract

The article discusses the condemnation by Myanmar's opposition leaders and ethnic representatives regarding the military's planned election, which they claim lacks legitimacy and will not foster peace or political stability. During an online panel discussion, key figures, including Zin Mar Aung from the National Unity Government (NUG) and Khun Myint Tun from the Pa-O National Federal Council (PNFC), expressed that the election does not reflect the people's will and highlighted widespread public resistance, including Silent Strikes. They criticized the exclusion of major political parties from the electoral process and raised concerns about the military-controlled Union Election Commission's ability to conduct a fair election. The panelists emphasized that the election would not resolve ongoing conflicts and reiterated their commitment to establishing a federal democratic system in Myanmar. [Extracted from the article]
