Notification

1. The National League for Democracy is a legal political organization
with full authority to operate and participate in all political activities.
Together with other legally constituted political parties, it contested
in the legally held multiparty general elections in 1990.
2. Dr. Thein Lwin, was the NLD candidate for Meiktila township, No (2)
constituency and won an overwhelming 28913 votes at the polls (62.09%).
This was acknowledged by the authorities and accordingly gazetted as the
legitimate Pyithu Hluttaw representative.
3. Despite this, at the behest of the authorities and in violation of
provisions of the Political Parties Registration Law, Pyithu Hluttaw Elections
Law and Order 2/88, a group of persons acted wrongfully and dishonourably
in declaring that they had lost confidence and support for him.
4. A shouting demonstration at Payangasu Hill, Saigone Village, Mwei Village
Tract against Dr. Thein Lwin was orchestrated by Township Judge U Tin
Htay, Township legal officer Daw Khin Win Phyu, Sergent Tin Aye (MI 15),
U Maung Maung Thant (Special Investigation Bureau officer), Deputy Superintendent
and members of the police force, and members of the township PDC.
5. This illegally orchestrated demonstration lasted six minutes only.
The residents of the area were threatened, given false information and
forced to attend. Because many refused to attend, children under the age
of eighteen were dragged there to swell the numbers, which was less than
two thousand.
6. The main stage actors in this 6 minute vociferous charade were:- Patrons
- U Pya and two others. Master of Ceremonies - Daw Pyu Pyu Win and Daw
Ohnmar Swe Speaker for the demonstration - U Kala (trader) Presenter of
the record - U Kyaw Hlaing (cultivator) Recipient of the record - Township
Judge U Tin Htay (member of the multiparty elections commission.)
7. Another 20 minute illegal charade that was orchestrated in the village
of Theingone, A-le-ywa village tract was an empty show where Daw Khin
Sanda Kyi and Daw Myint Myint Nwe,( teachers who reside in the town) acted
as master of ceremonies in this illegal performance.
8. The illegal shouting demonstration that was held in Ye-way village
lasted only11 minutes. The leading figures in this senseless performance
were middle school teachers Daw Than Nwe and Daw Win Kyi.
9. At Ti-bin-kone, a similar senseless and illegal shouting function was
orchestrated by school teachers Daw Khin Nwe and Daw Khin Htay Maw and
lasted 15 minutes.
10. These activities destroy the notion of "rule of law". It
encourages the people to loose their respect for law and order. We urge
the people to act in accordance with the law.
