Forge Union spirit in building a peaceful, prosperous nation

A UNITED country, a harmonious country, and a country that strives together will always be in a state of perpetual development and progress. Without unity and harmony, a country will decay and vanish like salt in water. Therefore, the development and progress of a country must be driven by the unity and harmony of its people.

The fundamental and most essential requirement for a country’s development is peace and stability. Only when the country forges peace and stability will the government initiate the rule of law, ensuring the safety and security of the people’s lives, property, and the protection of their livelihoods, as well as the growth of the social economy.

To ensure that the Republic of the Union of Myanmar remains strong, independent, and sovereign and to prevent it from becoming a puppet state under the control of others, it is crucial for all ethnic people of the country to unite, reject terrorism, and work towards the stability, peace, rule of law, and economic development of the nation. The government, Tatmadaw, and people must remain united in spirit and effort to ensure the nation’s survival and stability.

Between states and regions, as well as within each state and region and between rural and urban areas, the gaps in living standards and the disparities in wealth must be reduced as much as possible. The participation of ethnic people in maintaining harmony and unity is essential to ensure peace and prosperity in the nation, as well as the ethnic leaders’ perspective on national interests, which is equally important.

The State Administration Council will continue to work towards transferring power to a government that emerges from a free and fair multiparty democratic general election following the five-step roadmap. In a democratic system, elections are of utmost importance, and it is necessary to cooperate in maintaining stability and peace to ensure the proper conduct of elections.

As all our national brethren, misunderstandings and conflicts between ethnic groups should only be resolved through dialogue. Consequently, we continuously open the door to peace and welcome efforts to solve political problems through political means. We also request that local ethnic people encourage ethnic armed groups to seek solutions to their desires through political means by engaging in detailed negotiations. If so, the people of the entire nation can see a peaceful, prosperous and progressive nation in the future without fail.
