The Mon National Network and anti-authoritarian Mon youth forces on April 3 urged the Committee Representing Pyidaungsu Hluttaw (CRPH) to draw up an interim constitution as quickly as possible and to create a national unity government.
They said Part 2 of the CRPH’s recently published Federal Democracy Charter focuses on the CRPH and is weak in its plans for inclusivity, with the Mon groups adding that the plans for an interim constitution are vague.
They are worried that there will be weakness in cooperation activities to end the military dictatorship, they said.
On March 31, the CRPH declared that the military-drafted 2008 Constitution was abolished. In its place the CRPH put forward a Federal Democracy Charter, made up of four chapters, that lays out an “interim constitutional arrangement” to rebuild the country and pave the way for a replacement constitution.
A full English-language version of the Federal Democracy Charter can be found here.
The Mon youth forces said they welcome and agree with Part 1 of the charter, and abolishing of the 2008 Constitution.
Only a nationally united front bringing together all like-minded forces both at home and abroad can successfully revolt against the dictatorship, they said.
