1. We
are
determined
to
continue,
under
the
unity
and
the
righteous
leadership,
the
quest
to
end
the
dictatorship
and
to
pursue
democracy,
human
rights
and
national
reconciliation,
which
the
people
of
Burma
want.
2. The
2010
elections
and
results,
held
under

2008
constitution,
will
not
bring
any
change
towards
democracy,
human
rights
and
national
reconciliation
for
the
people
of
Burma.
Under
the
leadership
of
Daw
Aung

an
inclusive
dialogue

all
ethnic
nationalities
and
national
reconciliation
must
be
implemented.

Conference
must
be
held
to
establish
a
Federal
Union
based
on
democracy
and
equality
for
all
ethnic
nationalities
dwelling
in
Burma,
rather
than
a
centralized
country
or
separatist
states.
All
ethnic
nationalities
must
work
together
for
the
conference
to
occur.
We
pledge,
as
