We,themovementfordemocracyandrightsofethnicnationalities,successfullyheldour15
th strategicconsultationmeetingon20thand21stMarchon theThaiBurma
border. Participants from 10 major alliances discussed and debated the current
politicalsituationofBurmaatthemeetingandcametoacommonposition. Weare
all in complete agreement inour position to reject the five electoral laws and the
technical regulations issued by the SPDC. In our opinion, these laws have been
developedforthesolepurposeof institutionalizingtheoppressionof thepeopleof
Burma.
WealsorestatethatwedonotaccepttheprocessoftheNargisConstitutionnordoweacceptthesubstancesoftheconstitution.Moreoverwereaffirmourpositionon

Theelectoral lawshavebeen created Inorder to force theprodemocracypoliticalparties and forces to give up their political stands including the Shwegonedaing
Declaration.Accordingtothese laws,politicalpartieswouldbe forcedtoexpelDaw
AungSanSuuKyi,UHKunHtunOo,andallothercolleagueswhohavebeen falsely
imprisonedby the regime. Inaddition,according to these laws,before registering,
thepolitical
parties
have
to
pledge
to
uphold
the
Nargis
Constitution.
Therefore
we
find it impossibletoaccept these lawsandwestronglydenouncethem. Moreover,
webelieve thatpoliticalparties shouldnot registerat the commissionaccording to
theunfairpoliticalpartyregistrationact.
In addition, we state our strong objection to the regimes plans to transform theethnicceasefiregroupsintoborderguardforces. Thisplansultimateaimisclearlyto

believe that the rejections of ceasefire groups to this plan are critical to the
