Objectives of holding the conference of democratic forces

Objectives of holding the conference of democratic forces
June 19,2009

1.       We are democratic forces, defying relentlessly against the military dictatorship with determination to totally obliterate dictatorial system and restore government of the people, by the people and for the people in Burma. We are comprised of religious and ethnic leaders, veterans, former comrades of All Burma Students Democratic Front, members of various political entities and exiled students of 1988 generation.

2.       Only after the current military dictatorial system can be totally removed and replaced by the legitimate government of the people will there be a genuine solution to Burma’s multidimensional crisis of economy, society, ethnicity and national reconciliation.  This is the strategy as old as our revolution itself and the ethos of our revolution that we believe with all our hearts.


3.       We believe the election of 1990 and its results are still legitimate and a sole venue for military dictators to relinquish the power gracefully.  For the last 21 years, military dictators have consolidated their power using strategically formulated plan characterized by systematic and brutal crushing of democratic forces, manipulation of international communities through resource diplomacy and denying dialogue by forcefully fostering alternatives such as National Convention, Referendum, and forthcoming 2010 election.

4.       Throughout the history of our revolt against this tyrannical regime, we have wholeheartedly upheld the belief that our country would go through a transition to a new federal union of freedom and democracy through peaceful and non-violent means. However, history has made us learn that our good faith and sincere modus operandi have consistently been taken advantage by our enemy. For this reason, we are now determined to use every means at our disposal without any exception to crush the regime’s stronghold, believing that end justifies the means.


5.       Furthermore, against the backdrop of evolving global political landscape, we feel the need to crystallize and consolidate our guiding principles and strategy of our revolution by setting the following goals:
a.       To completely oppose 2010 election
b.      To confront and defy the regime using every available tools with no exception
c.       To create a federal union in Burma.
This need prompts us to hold this conference that will serve as a significant milestone towards the achievement of aforementioned goals.
6.       Thus, we, hereby, announce that a conference based on aforementioned principles and beliefs will be held. This conference will formulate a new strategy of our revolution and assure unanimously adopted resolution will be passed. Toward the achievement of this goal, our preparation for the conference has already begun.
