The political form that used the division of power could re-emerge again after the election held by the State Administration Council, chairman of the People's Party (PP), U Ko Ko Gyi told CNI News.
Chairman of the SAC, Sr-Gen Min Aung Hlaing said that the SAC was making preparations so that a free and fair multi-party democratic general election in 2025.
After the election, the political form that used the division of power could re-emerge again and armed groups would need to make preparations so that practical political dialogues could be carried out, said U Ko Ko Gyi to CNI News.
" Although some organizations don't accept the election, if the election has been held, post-election political organization that will come to power will have to solve the current problems, when solving, the way to solve will change. Because now is the state of emergency, three powers are in the hands of the C in C. So, there is no check and balance. But after the election, the political form that will use the division of power will re-emerge. So, individuals who will come to power from the election need to have political knowledge and experience as well as desire to make peace so that peace talks can be effectively conducted after the election. It's very important, I think. Moreover, armed organizations will need to make preparations for how to perform practical political dialogues so that the federalism can be well implemented." he said.

The Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army (MNDAA) requested China to broker in the current situations in September 2024 and the Ta'ang National Liberation Army (TNLA) announced that it was ready to discuss with the SAC on 25th November 2024.
As the peace talks could be conducted based on the Haigen Agreement, it was necessary to take the election into account, chairman of the Arakan National Network, U Tin Htoo Aung told CNI News.
" Because China has intervened in northern Shan State, a peace form or a dialogue might emerge. Based on the Haigen Agreement, a dialogue will arise, I think. But now as China is talking about the election, it might be taken into account because regional powers and the ASEAN are pushing it as well." he said.
In 2025, a general election will be held and the State power would be handed over to the winning party, said chairman of the SAC.
