The Framework for Political Dialogue (FPD) was reviewed at the National Reconciliation and Peace Centre in Yangon Saturday as part of ongoing efforts to organise national-level political dialogues this year, state media reported on 18 September.

The Union Political Dialogue Joint Committee (UPDJC) Secretary Dr Salai Lian Hmung Sakhong was quoted as saying the meeting focused on what sections of the agenda should be treated ethnically, regionally and topically at the launch of the national-level political dialogue.

The national-level dialogue is expected to commence in January as the Union Peace Conference is reportedly scheduled for February.
