Say NO to the military-monopolized constitution

Date: May 1st, 2008

This draft constitution is drafted by some military officers and their hand-picked delegates at the so-called National Convention.

There were very small numbers of representatives from political parties allowed to attend the National Convention. The papers from Non-Burman nationalities leaders and ceasefire-groups had been eliminated several times at the National Convention.

Therefore we, New Mon State Party, urge people of Burma to cast a “NO” vote in the constitutional referendum.

Statement on constitutional referendum that will conduct in May by the Burmese military regime

    Date: March 9, 2008
  1. New Mon State Party believes that referendum might not conduct before having a tripartite dialogue.
  2. The draft constitution should have to amend and discuss with ethnic nationalities and democratic organizations. If not politcal crisis is never solved.

Statement on Burmese military government asking ceasefire groups and political organizations to against political dialogue called by Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and to support the regime's National Convention

Date: November 16, 2007
We believe that Burma's political problems can only be solved through political dialogue. Therefore, we established a ceasefire-agreement with the Burmese military government.

We have submitted our proposals on ethnic nationalities' rights in past sessions of National Convention, but our proposals have been rejected and ignored by the Convention. Thus, we reduced our participating in the National Convention from sending full representatives to observers.

We support Daw Aung San Suu Kyi's statement called for political dialogue in Burma. We will closely observe what would happen in reality. We strongly also believed that political dialogue could only be meaningful if all ethnic nationalities are included.
