The 88
Generation Students (International) and the Democratic Forces
Statement of the Joint
Action Working Committee on organizing a political forum between the 88
Generation Students (Burma and International) and the Democratic Forces
Date: 31 May 2013
1. The Joint Action Working Committee (JAWC) has come together to work toward
enabling cooperation among the 88 Generation Students (Burma and International)
and the Democratic Forces, since the release of leaders of the 88 Generation
Students Burma. The efforts of the JAWC
were primarily focused on convening a political forum between those inside
Burma and international and the democratic forces after more than 20 years
apart.
2. Subsequently, the JAWC established an organizing committee tasked with
finding ways for responding to current situations andfor formulating future
workplans as for preparation for convening the political forum. Hence, the Organizing Committee was
established with the following terms of reference:
a) Reflection on the struggles for regime change and democracy restoration
over the past 25 years
b) Analysis and evaluation of the military’s imposed 2008 Constitution and
present situations
c) Ways forward for responding to future challenges and for formulating
workplans.
3.
The aim of the JAWC to enhance international collaboration for convention
of an international conference. It
negotiated with all parties, including those in Fort Wayne and the Canadian
Friends of Burma. Though the parties
agreed to collaborate, the JAWC ceased its collaboration (with the two mentioned
parties) due to disagreement on the primary aims and missions of the conference
and the lacking in transparency and dishonesty and insincerity.
The party in Fort Wayne proposed ‘Citizenship
rights in Burma of the exiles’ as the primary aim for the conference. This is politically immature and against the
aims of the JAWC.
Similarly, the Canadian Friends of Burma
(CFOB) displayed its dishonesty and insincerity in negotiation with the
JAWC. In addition, the CFOB showed
little understanding of the conference’s aims and lacked good negotiation
spirits.
4.
However, the JAWC continues its efforts to implement its original
aim of convening a political forum focused on high level and mainstream
discussions. The JAWC states that it has
disassociate d with the Party in Fort Wayne and the CFOB.
