Convention
to Reconvene Nov. 28
Oct. 4: National Convention Convening
Commission Announcement No. 7/95 of
1. The National Convention Convening
Commission designated 24 October (Tuesday) 1995 as the date to reconvene the
National Convention. Accordingly, the National Convention Convening Commission,
the National Convention Convening Work Committee, the National Convention
Convening Management Committee and various sub-committees have been making
necessary preparations and carrying out programmes to
ensure smoothness in all aspects at the National Convention to be reconvened.
2. However, many of the of the delegates of
the respective delegate groups are inclined to attend to their business
undertakings especially agricultural matters as well as charities at a time
when the rainy season is withdrawing, so they have expressed their wish that
the National Convention be reconvened after the Tazaungdine
Festival, instead of reconvening it after the Thadingyut
Festival.
3. Taking into serious consideration of the
wishes of many of the National Convention delegates thus informed, the National
Convention Convening Commission hereby designates 7th Waxing of Nadaw, 1357 ME (28 November, 1995) as the date for
reconvening of the National Convention to enable all the delegates to attend
it.
