\ud83d\udccc\ud83d\udccc 2. NLD Rejects the Junta\u2019s Sham Election and Urges the International Community Not to Recognize It<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

October 28<\/strong>
Radio NUG<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The National League for Democracy (NLD)<\/strong> issued a statement on October 28<\/strong>, declaring that it completely rejects and will not recognize<\/strong> the sham election<\/strong> planned by the military junta. The party also urged the international community<\/strong> not to recognize the election, not to provide any technical or financial assistance<\/strong>, and not to send observers<\/strong> to monitor it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In its Central Executive Committee statement<\/strong>, the NLD reaffirmed that the November 8, 2020 general election<\/strong> was free, fair, and internationally recognized<\/strong> by world leaders, diplomats, and the United Nations<\/strong>. The statement condemned the military coup of February 1, 2021<\/strong>, which was carried out based on unsubstantiated allegations of voter fraud<\/strong>, as illegal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement further highlighted that since the coup, the junta\u2019s systematic human rights violations<\/strong> have caused over 3.6 million internally displaced persons<\/strong> and more than 19,000 political prisoners<\/strong>. It also stressed that the election the junta is attempting to organize could only take place in about one-third of the country\u2019s territory<\/strong> and would not meet democratic standards<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the 2020 election<\/strong>, voting successfully took place in 1,171 constituencies (95.38%)<\/strong>, with a voter turnout exceeding 71%<\/strong>, and the NLD won 82.36% of constituencies<\/strong>, the statement detailed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The election was recognized by international observer organizations including ANFREL<\/strong>, PACE<\/strong>, The Carter Center<\/strong>, and a Japanese observer mission<\/strong>, all of which affirmed that it was free and fair<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement recalled that international leaders<\/strong> \u2014 including Chinese President Xi Jinping<\/strong>, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo<\/strong>, British Foreign Secretary Nigel Adams<\/strong>, Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga<\/strong>, and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi<\/strong> \u2014 all congratulated the success<\/strong> of the 2020 election. The Union Election Commission<\/strong> officially certified the results as valid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reports from IFES<\/strong>, ANFREL<\/strong>, and IDEA<\/strong> confirmed that the junta\u2019s allegations of voter fraud were baseless<\/strong>. According to the Myanmar Peace Monitor<\/strong>, since the coup, 75,938 civilian homes<\/strong> have been destroyed and 8,101 civilians<\/strong> have been killed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NLD noted that the junta\u2019s planned election would not allow free expression of the people\u2019s will<\/strong>, would be limited to only one-third of the territory<\/strong>, and would include more than half of the seats reserved for military representatives<\/strong>, making true civilian representation impossible<\/strong>. Surveys by ISP Myanmar<\/strong> and the Blue Shirt Initiative<\/strong> showed that over 81% of the population<\/strong> opposes the junta\u2019s election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement emphasized that the junta\u2019s election plan is not included<\/strong> in the ASEAN Five-Point Consensus<\/strong> or UN Security Council Resolution 2669<\/strong>, and that both the European Union and ASEAN parliamentarians<\/strong> have expressed opposition<\/strong> to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NLD reaffirmed its firm commitment to the path of establishing a Federal Democratic Union<\/strong>, and stated that it is collaborating closely with ethnic allies<\/strong> to draft and implement the Interim Federal Constitution<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udccc\ud83d\udccc 3. Malaysia to Convene Pre-Election Dialogue in Kuala Lumpur with 27 Ethnic Armed Organizations and All Opposition Forces on Myanmar Issue<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

October 28<\/strong>
Radio NUG<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim<\/strong> announced that Malaysia<\/strong> will invite 27 ethnic armed organizations and all opposition groups<\/strong> to Kuala Lumpur<\/strong> for an inclusive dialogue on the Myanmar issue<\/strong>, to be held before the junta\u2019s planned election<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the ASEAN Chair<\/strong>, Malaysia stressed that the Myanmar crisis must be resolved by the people of Myanmar themselves<\/strong>. Prime Minister Anwar also noted that ASEAN is still considering the junta\u2019s invitation<\/strong> for election observers to be sent to Myanmar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the ASEAN Foreign Ministers\u2019 Meeting<\/strong> held in Kuala Lumpur on October 26<\/strong>, a 28-point joint statement<\/strong> was released. It reaffirmed that since the junta has made no meaningful progress<\/strong> in implementing the ASEAN Five-Point Consensus<\/strong>, military leaders will continue to be barred<\/strong> from attending ASEAN summits and related meetings<\/strong>. Only non-political representatives<\/strong> would be allowed to participate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement emphasized that the Five-Point Consensus must be implemented and all violence must cease<\/strong> before any election is held, and that the political crisis must first be resolved<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

October 28<\/strong>
Radio NUG<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Ministry of Human Rights<\/strong> of the National Unity Government<\/strong>, humanitarian aid was provided to civilians suffering from hardship in Wetlet Township, Shwebo District, Sagaing Region<\/strong>, due to the junta\u2019s daily military offensives<\/strong> in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout October, essential items such as food supplies, transport expenses, and emergency medical funds<\/strong> were provided through local humanitarian networks<\/strong>, particularly the Township Humanitarian Network<\/strong> and Humanitarian Relief Teams<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, for civilians trapped or displaced by the ongoing military operations, the People\u2019s Administration of Shwebo Township (Pa La Pha)<\/strong>, the Township Human Rights Officer<\/strong>, local humanitarian coordinators<\/strong>, and displacement support groups<\/strong> worked together to distribute food and emergency aid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the junta continues to intensify its violent ground and air attacks<\/strong>, the humanitarian needs of civilians have dramatically increased. The Ministry of Human Rights stated that the National Unity Government<\/strong> remains committed to providing direct humanitarian assistance<\/strong> and coordinating collaborative relief efforts<\/strong> to respond to the people\u2019s urgent needs without interruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udccc\ud83d\udccc 5. Parcels and Letters Delivered to Political Prisoners in Prisons Across the Country<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

October 28<\/strong>
Radio NUG<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Political Prisoners Support Group<\/strong> announced that parcels and letters had been delivered to political prisoners detained in various prisons<\/strong> across Myanmar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the group, supporters who contacted and contributed<\/strong> to assist political prisoners helped make this delivery possible. In October<\/strong>, they sent parcels containing letters, snacks, coffee, curries, and personal-use items<\/strong> to political detainees held unlawfully since the military coup of February 1, 2021<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was reported that in October<\/strong>, such parcels were successfully delivered to political prisoners in eight prisons<\/strong> across the country through the coordination of the Political Prisoners Support Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, over 5,000 political prisoners<\/strong> remain unlawfully detained in various prisons. Many of them struggle to receive parcels from their families<\/strong>, lack access to medical care<\/strong>, or are denied visitation rights<\/strong> and blocked from receiving any supplies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement added that families are facing multiple restrictions and intimidation<\/strong>, preventing them from sending food, medicine, and other personal-use items<\/strong> to their detained loved ones. In response, the Political Prisoners Support Group<\/strong> called on members of the public who wish to help to donate through the group\u2019s coordination channels<\/strong> to ensure assistance reaches those in need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udccc\ud83d\udccc 6. Civil Society Groups Designate October 28 to December 31 as the \u201cPeriod of Boycotting the Sham Military Election\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

October 28<\/strong>
Radio NUG<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Civil society organizations and the general public, who regard the military junta\u2019s planned election<\/strong> as illegitimate and fraudulent<\/strong>, have designated the period from October 28 to December 31<\/strong> as the \u201cPeriod of Boycotting the Sham Military Election,\u201d<\/strong> according to an announcement issued by GSCB<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement explained that since the February 2021 military coup<\/strong>, the junta has relied on violence and corruption<\/strong> to maintain its power. As a result, over 12 million people<\/strong> are now facing food insecurity<\/strong>, while drug trafficking, gambling, and daily violence<\/strong> have spread across the country, plunging Myanmar into a state of lawlessness and instability<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The announcement further condemned the junta\u2019s so-called election as \u201ca dishonorable act of violence, deception, and imprisonment disguised as an electoral process.\u201d<\/strong> It declared that such an election would bring no meaningful change<\/strong> or benefit to the nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement urged all citizens across the country<\/strong> to collectively boycott and oppose<\/strong> the election through various forms of peaceful resistance<\/strong>, reaffirming the people\u2019s commitment to rejecting the junta\u2019s fraudulent political maneuvers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udccc\ud83d\udccc 7. Non-CDM Teacher Arrested for Beating Her Elderly Aunt and Niece with a Hammer and Stealing Gold and Cash in Chanmyathazi Township<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

October 28<\/strong>
Radio NUG<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The junta\u2019s so-called \u201celection commission\u201d announced that a Non-CDM teacher<\/strong> was arrested<\/strong> for attacking her 84-year-old aunt<\/strong> and niece<\/strong> with a hammer in Chanmyathazi Township, Mandalay Region<\/strong>, before stealing gold and cash<\/strong> from their home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The alleged perpetrator, identified as Daw Soe Soe Tun<\/strong>, is reportedly the niece of the deceased<\/strong> and a middle school teacher<\/strong> at Basic Education Middle School No. 4, Ward (3), Pyin Oo Lwin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to reports, on the morning of October 25<\/strong>, she struck her 36-year-old niece<\/strong> three times with a hammer<\/strong> while the victim was sleeping. She then attacked her aunt<\/strong>, who was sitting on a chair, hitting her once on the head<\/strong>, before breaking open a wooden chest<\/strong> and stealing one 10-tical gold bar<\/strong> and 10 million kyats in cash<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result of the assault, the 84-year-old retired librarian<\/strong> died at her home in Myothit (2) Ward, Chanmyathazi Township<\/strong>, while her niece sustained two injuries<\/strong> to the head and left ear<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The junta\u2019s report claimed that the perpetrator committed the crime due to financial difficulties<\/strong> and failure to obtain a loan<\/strong> from the victims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the military coup<\/strong>, Myanmar has experienced a sharp increase in murders, robberies, and thefts<\/strong> \u2014 even in major cities \u2014 as the country continues to suffer under widespread economic hardship and lawlessness<\/strong> created by the junta\u2019s rule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
