Statement on the ceasefire agreement between Burmese government and RCSS/SSA

10 December 2011

1. President U Thein Sein governments olive branch offer (announcement No. 1/2011) was officially announced on 18

August 2011. Restoration Council of the Shan State (RCSS)/Shan State Army (SSA) also has the policy to solve the

political issues through political and peaceful means. Therefore, RCSS/SSA sent a letter to the government for

negotiation while the latter opens the opportunity for every ethnic to join in solving the longstanding political problems

and build peace in the country.

2. As arranged by Sao Harn Yawnghwe, the meeting took place for the first time betweenRCSS/SSA peace committee led

by Lt. Gen. Yawd Serk and Burmese government peacemaking delegations led by Union Minister for Rail Transportation

U Aung Min as a special representative of President U Thein Sein, at a Shan-Thai border on 19 November 2011.

3. At the first meeting, Minister U Aung Min presented a 4 point proposition:

a. Cessation of hostilities

b. Opening liaison offices

c. To roam freely if without arms

d. To discuss politics at Union level

RCSS/SSA presented a 4 point proposition for peace process:

a. Cessation of hostilities

b. To solve political issue through political dialogue

c. Setting up of a RCSS/SSA headquarters area to improve the living standard of the people and the families of its troops

d. Cooperation in the drug eradication

4. After the meeting, the two sides made an appointment to officially meet again in Taunggyi, the capital of Shan State on

2 December 2011. The State level peace group from Shan State Government led by Minister U Aung Min and Minister

U Khin Maung Soe consists of the following members:

a. U Sao Aung Myat, Shan State Chief Minister

b. Col. Aung Thu, minister, Ministry of Security and Border Affairs, Shan State Government

c. U Maung Maung, State Chief of Justice, Shan State Government

e. Lt. Col. Sai Ngern, secretary

f. Sai Moe Kyaw, camera man

5. The two sides officially signed ceasefire agreement on the basis of the 8 point proposition at the second meeting held at

Taunggyi Hotel in Taunggyi on 2 December 2011.

6. As the main point of the signing of the agreement at this meeting is only ceasefire, the points that could not be decided upon

will further be discussed through political negotiation at Union level for peace building. In order to build and achieve true peace,

we need to wait and see the actions and attitude of President U Thein Sein government towards the country and ethnic

nationalities.

7. If the actions of President U Thein Sein government do not correspond to the announcement of peace building made and there

are still violations of human rights and the rights of ethnic people, RCSS/SSA is always ready to go to war by taking up arms to

protect ourselves, our people and our country.

8. Ceasefire is meant the starting point for peace building and the development of the living standard of our people so that one can

make progress and taste the sweetness of democratic rights as one of the people in the world. Therefore, as a citizen of the Union,

we all share the same responsibility to build a peaceful and developed nation.

For a person who has been campaign-

ing for honour, truth, justice and free-

dom, and watching closely all the

events that is enfolding between the

Burmese military regimes and the

Tai/Shan and other ethnic nationals,

I sometimes feel so helpless and dev-

astated. There is always an obstacle to

stop every forward step made by the

Tai/Shan and other ethnic nationals;

most of the obstacles are caused by the

enemy, but some of the obstacles are

their own making.

Now is a very crucial time for all non-

Burman ethnic nationals. It is a time

to hit or miss the opportunity of being

free from the bullying and aggressive

rule of the dictators. The dictatorial

Government is calling for peace, and

all the resistant groups will be meet-

ing with Thein Sein's Government to

negotiate terms.

Please be reminded by this advice of

F J Kennedy Let us never negotiate

out of fear-but let us never fear to ne-

gotiate

I feel that some of the leaders have

not thought far ahead of what criteria

will bring real peace to their country

and people. Every time some of them

meet up with the dictators they accept

rewards and give in to the terms im-

posed on them, but afraid to negotiate

for the terms that will bring real peace

to their homeland and people.

Although all the ethnic groups say that

they are allies, and in reality want the

same things, they do not work together

as one body, and tend to give in to the

terms the dictators throw at them. They

shout for unity but do not know how

to promote unity and fight together for

what they want.

As long as the dictatorial armed forces

are in their territory peace cannot be

achieved, and their people will never

be free from human rights violations.

In order to achieve peace all the dic-

tatorial armed forces will have to be

withdrawn from the ethnic homelands.

Some ethnic nationals are afraid, hesi-

tating and wasting time.

Unless the dictators change their men-

tality and believe that all human beings

are born equal, there can never be good

relationship between them and other

ethnic nationals, so peace is unachiev-

able.

Unless the people have a say in the de-

velopment and welfare of their home-

land, there is no hopes for democracy,

and the dictators will forever rule over

them and their homeland.. Without de-

mocracy there can be no peace

The dictators have embraced Daw

Aung San Suu Kyi to increase their

weight against the other ethnic nation-

als, and use her to gain legitimacy from

the UN and the Super Power, such as

America.

Time is critical, and once the dictators

are accepted b y the UN as a legitimate

government of Burma there is very

little the other ethnic groups can do

about it, except remain under the same

old government and hope for change to

come in another half a century. So far,

there is little or no sign of the UN or

powerful Governments to consider the

voice of non-Burman ethnic nationals,

or take their legal rights and grievances

into consideration.

The present government under Thein

Sein is desperate to be recognised as

a legitimate Government and is try-

ing every means to get it. He has the

world's most respected Icon on his

side, and will demonstrate to the in-

ternational communities that the re-

gime has changed, and he might even

release all prisoners, but for certain,

the regime will never release the eth-

nic states out of their control. To have

other ethnic states under their control

has been the obsession of the hard-line

Burmese politicians since the British

and the Japanese Occupation. They

thought that Bogyoke Aung San made

a grave mistake by agreeing with other

ethnic nationals, the principles of the

Panglong Agreement: freedom, equal-

ity and self-determination. He was as-

sassinated.

On 1 October, Capt. Yata Oo and his 20

Burmese soldiers from LIB 332 stationing

in Wan Yeung base forced the villagers of

Wan Yeung village tract Laikha Town-

ship to provide them bamboos and posts

Ethnic Shan forces who signed a truce

with the Burmese government early

this month have vowed to take up arms

against Naypyidaw again if the group's

basic rights are not respected and pro-

tected.

"The cease-fire is meant [to be] the start-

ing point for peace-building and the

development of living standard of our

people so that one can make progress and

the test of sweetness of democratic right

as one of people in the world," the Resto-

ration Council of the Shan State (RCSS)

and Shan State Army (SSA) said in a

statement.

The SSA, which has carried on an armed

struggle for autonomy for decades,

reached a peace agreement with the gov-

ernment on December 2 after rounds of

quiet negotiation.

However, the pact is simply a cease-fireagreement and many different points

needed further discussion, the statement

said.

SSA leader Lt-General Yawd Serk led his

Shan delegation to kick off peace talks

with Rail Transport Minister U Aung Min

near the Thai border in November.

At the first meeting, the government pro-

posed four talking points: cessation of

hostilities, opening a liaison office, roam-

ing freely without arms and discussion of

politics at Union level.

The Shan countered with its own four key

points: cessation of hostilities, solving po-

litical issues through dialogue, setting up

RCSS and SSA headquarters, and coop-

eration on drug eradication.

The sides reached a cease-fire in Taung-

gyi, the capital city of Shan State, but

could did not make any decision on the

remaining points.

Thein Sein's government announced a

peace talk with all armed ethnic groups

in August this year after its initial plan to

force ethnic insurgents to serve as border

guard forces under the military complete-

ly failed.

Before the Shan group, the government

reached peace agreements with many

other armed ethnic groups, including the

United Wa State Army.

The Shan group established contact with

the authorities in late October to begin

peace negotiations.

As some points proposed by both sides

had yet to be agreed upon, the Shan group

said it has to wait and see what actions aretaken by the government toward minori-

ties before it proceeds.

2011 1:00 am

Panglong Township. They also looted 4

viss of fresh fish worth 4000 kyat and 1.5

baskets of rice worth 42500 kyat from the

villagers of Nam Nwang village, Nwang

village tract too.

On 10 September, 30 Burmese soldiers

from LIB 513 demanded 100,000 kyat in

cash from Nwang Len village tract to pay

them by 11 September.

On 11 October, 40 Burmese soldiers from

LIB 510 led by Lt. Col. Tin Oo entered

Nam Aw village, Pansat village tract,

Murng Kerng Twonshp and took a rest

there. At 9 pm, one of Burmese soldiers

raped a 18 year old girl, daughter of Loon

Kya and Pa Nang.

On 12 September, Burmese soldiers from

Kho Mai base under LIB 578 based in

Larng Khur Township ordered local vil-

lagers of Wan Zit village tract to provide

them 100 bamboos and 500 wooden posts

with 5 feet long. The bamboos and theposts had to bring to the base by 13 Sep-

tember or the villagers would be faced the
