There are reviews and discussion among political circles regarding whether a peace talk could emerge.

A political dialogue was needed to be held after which it was necessary to build the peace before the election, Dr.Aye Maung, chairman of the Arakan Front Party (AFP) told CNI News.

" The post-election government is important. If a general election is held in December, 2025, peace and stability is important to the five-year tenure government which will start from 2026. The situation before the election is important. To tell you frankly, it's necessary to build the peace through a political negotiation so that a post-election government will be stable." he said.

A census-taking would be conducted this year and an attempt would be made in order to hold a general election in 2025, said chairman of the SAC.

 It would be better if a peace talk which contained the SAC, the EAOs, political parties and other organizations was held, Sao Khun Sai, a person participating in the peace process, told CNI News.

" It would be very good if a peace dialogue emerged. We should encourage those who will lead the dialogue." he said.

Because of political disagreements which started on 1st February 2021, armed conflicts are widely taking place across the country.

It was necessary to persuade EAOs to make them participate in the dialogue and political parties got ready, said Dr.Aye Maung.

" Political parties alone can't succeed in political negotiation. EAOs are needed to take part in the negotiation as well. The NCA channel emerged in this way. In the channel, there is a 7 EAO alliance. There are non-NCA signatories as well. Can we persuade them? Moreover, I'm not sure how the political parties which have not got registration will go on." he said.

Because of armed conflicts that are currently taking place in Myanmar, Myanmar people are facing economic decline, inflation, higher commodity price and lack of employment.
