The All Mon Region Democracy Party (AMDP) and the Mon National Party (MNP), which are members of the Mon Unity Committee, will lead a political dialogue under the title ‘Reviewing the 21st Century Panglong Peace Conference’.

The political dialogue is slated for August 31 and September 1 at Paing Khit Hall in Mawlamyine, Mon State and 150 delegates from the AMRDP and the MNP will be invited to attend the dialogue, the coordinators said.

“Decisions have been set down in the Mon political dialogue, which was held in Ye. Among them, we need to review to what extent practical positions and demands have been obtained in the third session of the Panglong Conference,” said Nai Layih Tamarh, general secretary of the Mon National Party (MNP).

The dialogue will include talks on peace and federal issues given by the New Mon State Party (NMSP)’s vice-chair Nai Hong Sar and the Union Peace Dialogue Joint Committee (UPDJC) members Dr Min Nwe Soe and Min Zayar Oo.

“We will talk about peace and a little about federalism and review the presentations by the attendees,” said Min Nwe Soe.

The Ethnic-based Mon National-Level Political Dialogue was held in Ye for three days in early May, but only some social and land issues from the outcome were discussed in the third session of the 21st Century Panglong Conference, according to Mon delegates who attended the conference.
