“Everyone are fighting with sincere. But now we don’t have genuine freedom yet, therefore, we have to fight for our nation’s liberty. We need cooperation and support our people because this is not someone’s mission. To end the war, it’s not our business to speak but you need to ask the person who attacks us.”, said the representative.
Zipporah Sein, KNU vice-chairperson, gave a speech at the event stating that all groups of Karen people still need to stand up to protect their freedom. With 65 years of struggling resistance, the people do not want to be oppressed. Even though the Burmese Government has been trying to talk about peace and negotiation, in reality it has made little progress. They have tried to tell the world that the country already gained peacefulness but in it does not. Holding the event today proves that their claim is not true. Our aim is to bring happiness to the people which would take long time to reach. Therefore, we need to be patient and the people should not misunderstand. We all need to create understanding.

Gen. Baw Kyaw Heh also mentioned about the peace talk with Burmese
government that no progress yet because KNU specified the areas for
Burmese soldiers to be stationed and where to withdraw their personnel.
Especially along the Salween River Bank, Burmese soldiers are not
necessary as the KNU can look after the area. However, the they were not
agree but sent more troops to station in 10 spots. This is unreliable
and Karen army have to fight with our best against their invasion.လာေရာက္ကျပခ့ဲသည့္အျပင္ ေတာ္လွန္ေရးေန႔ အခမ္းအနားအၿပီး၌ ဒံုးအကမ်ားျဖင့္ ေဖ်ာ္ေျဖခဲ့ၾကသည္။

“Burmese Government tells the outside world that the country is peaceful
and asks rebel groups to sign ceasefire agreement. But they never
prepare details as agreed. Moreover, they put more troops to many areas
which is dangerous for ethnic groups”, said the general. He stated that
their aim is to restore the rights and freedom of the Karen people in
their own land, to have democracy which is worldwide recognized. No
matter it is federal state or another. (translated from Thai article)
