State Counsellor Daw Aung San Suu Kyi has called for a national peace conference within the next two months, the Global New Light of Myanmar reported on 28 April.
Speaking at the second meeting of the Union Ceasefire Joint Monitoring Committee (UJMC) yesterday, the State Counsellor stressed the need to hold the national peace conference like the historic Panglong Conference concurrently with the nationwide ceasefire.
She said would also make efforts to bring non-signatory groups into the nationwide cease fire deal as a priority.
