Danish parliamentarians give their support to 
Burmese 10 member Committee


Parliamentarian leaders from five political parties represented in the
Danish National Assembly have today given their support to the
establishment of the 10 member Committee set up to represent a People's
Parliament in Burma.
 
The Committee was formed by the opposition party the National League of
Democracy (NLD), led by the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi. 
The roll call, released today, expressed a joint stand from these five
political parties.

The NLD has urged the international community to give their support to
the forming of the Committee in order to strengthen the democratic
development in Burma and to increase the pressure on the Burmese
military junta. 

Aung San Suu Kyi has expressed hope that more national and international
organisations, unions, parliaments and political movements will give
their moral and political support to the Committee.
