Burma Democratic Concern (BDC) Statement on Burma’s Independence Day

4th January 2010

Burma Democratic Concern (BDC) sends our warmest wishes to the people of Burma on this 62nd Anniversary of Burma’s Independence from British rule.

Burma Democratic Concern (BDC) would like to reaffirm our position on this auspicious occasion that we will work until democracy, human rights and rule of law, restored in Burma. We strongly believe that we will win. Justice will prevail and we can do it.

Throughout the history, Burmese people showed their bravery in fighting against invasions, fighting against imperialism and fighting against fascism, etc. People of Burma –Kachin, Kayar, Karean, Chin, Mon, Bamar, Rakhine and Shan – students, peasants, workers, farmers, monks, men and women; working together to victory.

Burma is facing the very critical challenge ahead especially this year since junta claims that they will hold election in 2010. Current ruling junta which came to power in 1988 after gunned down more than 3000 demonstrators who are peacefully calling for democracy and human rights in Burma.

The very junta held the election in 1990 in which Aung San Suu Kyi led party won the landslide victory. Junta ignores to honour the 1990 election results until now and again they are planning to hold election in 2010 trying to nullify 1990 election result as well as in order to legitimise military rule in Burma.

It is our duty to implement 1990 election results in which people voted for their leaders, it is our duty to review junta’s sham 2008 constitution, and it is our duty to boycott junta’s planned sham 2010 election which will legitimise military rule in Burma.

Burma Democratic Concern (BDC) is launching “Yes We Can” Campaign in order to implement 1990 election result in Burma, to change junta’s sham 2008 constitution and to boycott junta’s planned sham 2010 election.

We must do everything we can to restore democracy, human rights and rule of law in Burma. Together we can restore the democracy in Burma and build the better world. Let’s work together. We will win and we can bring justice realities in Burma. Yes we can since what we believe is what we achieve.
