The National Unity Government sent a message to the Kayan New Year’s Day ceremony on December 13, saying that they are seeing the fruits of the revolutionary victory and that they will surely enjoy the victory in the near future.
“The Kayan people start New Year’s Day with a Feast of the First Crop where the festival is held in order to preserve literature, cultural traditions and music. Due to the offensive attacks of the terrorist military in various parts of Myanmar, no commemorative festival can be held today, and people have to flee to safe places and shelter in great suffering.
However, because all ethnic groups from all over Myanmar, including the Kayan ethnic groups, are united in their revolutionary attack against the terrorist military, we are seeing the fruits of the revolutionary victory that we have cultivated for almost 3 years, and we will certainly enjoy the victory in the near future.
In the period when the goal of eradicating the military dictatorship is about to be reached, we are sending a New Year’s message wishing to work together more closely with the Kayan ethnic groups and enjoy the fruits of the revolutionary victory for the construction of a future federal democratic union,” the NUG stated.
