On Tuesday, Myanmar’s acting Civilian President, Duwa Lashi La has called Southeast Asian leaders at the Annual ASEAN Summit to reject the Myanmar Junta’s plan for elections next year and engage with his National Unity Government (NUG) to end regime atrocities.
Duwa Lashi La was quoted in a statement, “Excellencies, I greatly appreciate that this leaders’ summit will consider recommendations, to take further practical action and to help end the suffering of the people of Myanmar. Instead of continuing to allow the junta to waste time and destroy lives, we urge you to take meaningful action with those of us who truly wish to end the crisis.”
Duwa Lashi La also added that, the NUG and other stakeholders have prepared a serious roadmap for Myanmar, based on the rule of law, democracy, peace and a commitment to an inclusive new Myanmar that protects everyone, including the Rohingya.
“Our people will never forget those who stand with us,” he wrote.
NUG has so far taken efforts to state that they recognize the Rohingya right to citizenship. Apparently, the NUG has been labelled as “terrorists” by the Junta although the European Parliament has recognized NUG as the legitimate government of Myanmar.
