Peace-talks Creation Group (PCG) will be providing the transportation access to the ethnic armed groups’ leaders who will attend the summit of Nationwide Ceasefire Coordination Team (NCCT), according to the PCG.
The three-day meeting will be held in headquarter of Kachin Independence Organization (KIO) in Laiza Township, Kachin State.
The PCG also supported transportation from Myitkyina to Laiza Townships to the leaders from ethnic armed groups who had attended the very first conference of ethnic armed groups held in Laiza by the end of October last year.
“Regarding the transportation services, PCG will be coordinating with the Kachin State Regional Government Committee, officials from Northern Command Headquarter as well as KIO,” said La Maing Guan Jar from PCG.
“We have known that the meeting will be held on July 24, 25 and 26. We have to be prepared on July 15 or 16. We, PCG, plan to hold a discussion at Myitkyina Township on July 15 or 16 matters on preparing of transportation services and accommodation of ethnic armed groups including those who will attend a meeting,” La Maing Guan Jar added.
He continued that we are going to use Myitkyina-Laiza motor road. When the time comes, we will present a schedule to the regional government and the Northern Command as well as the KIO.
Moreover, PCG will support the transportation services to the reporters who will cover the Laiza’s summit.
The Union Peace Working Committee is now drawing a ceasefire draft together with the delegates from NCCT.
Although the draft (second phase) had been drawn after ceasefire discussion held in April and May, the approvals of ethnic leaders concerning the disagreements are still up in the air; this summit is hoped to unify the differences.
“The government will assist those who want to hold the conferences and meetings between ethnic armed to bring positive views on nationwide ceasefire agreement,” Union Minister Aung Min told the ethnic delegates after a discussion between government and NCCT held on May 23.
