As armed conflicts are severely taking place in Myanmar, the State Administration Council could intend to transform in January, 2025 in order find a political answer, chairman of the Arakan Front Party (AFP) Dr. Aye Maung told CNI News.

The SAC could transform in January 2025 and a transformed government could arise in 2026, he said.

" He must have found an answer how to find an answer militarily and how to find an exit politically. He has said a general election will be held in 2025. it's likely that the SAC could intend to transform on 31st January 2025. There is a prospect that a transformed government could arise in 2026. The SAC should initiate to start political dialogues. It must give an opportunity that can solve the Myanmar political problem after an all-inclusive dialogue." said Dr. Aye Maung.

Efforts must be made so as not to make vote list wrong in the coming election, said Sr-Gen Min Aung Hlaing at the meeting of the SAC on 19th November 2024.

Moreover, members of the SAC must carry out by division of duty. Myanmar Electronic Voting Machine would be used in the coming election, he added. 

And then, depending on the security, the election would be held at one place after another, he said.

At present, census-taking could be conducted for over 63 percent of the national population, he had estimated that it could be fully conducted in the end of 2024, he said. 

However, unless it was peaceful, it would not be easy to conduct census-taking in the whole country, chairman of the Arakan National Network, U Tin Htoo Aung told CNI News.

" It's necessary to be peaceful in order to be able to conduct census-taking in the whole country. It's necessary to solve the political problem by the political means. Because they are not pleased with the coup, because they are not on the right track to democracy, our citizens are fighting against one another. Battles are taking place. So, in my opinion, it's not easy to conduct census-taking in the whole country." he said.

Census-taking has being conducted since 1st October and if the vote list was made, a general election would be held in 2025 and the State power would be handed over to the winning party, said Sr-Gen Min Aung Hlaing.

China would provide assistance to the election that would be held by the SAC and want the election that would contain all the stakeholders, said Chinese FM Wang Yi during his meeting with Sr-Gen Min Aung Hlaing on 14th August 2024.
