Press statement by the
Special Adviser to the Secretary-General on Myanmar
Yangon, 28 November 2010
During my visit, I had the opportunity to meet with the Government and a range
of stakeholders, including Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and members of the NLD, as
well as representatives of some of the major political parties who participated in
the 7 November elections, including the Democratic Party, National Democratic
Force, Rakhine Nationalities Development Party, Chin National Party, National
Unity Party, and Union Solidarity and Development Party. In addition, I met with
representatives of Myanmar civil society groups.
In the wake of Myanmar’s first elections in twenty years and the release of Daw
Aung San Suu Kyi, my visit focused on three main aspects:
The first was to listen to as many parties as possible about their hopes,
expectations and concerns at this critical juncture for the country’s future
direction. In this process, strong concerns were expressed by many
parties about the process and outcome of the recent elections, which I
have urged the Government and the Union Election Commission to
address as transparently as possible. This is important for laying the
foundation of a credible transition.
