MPs from 1990 to form draft committee for new constitution
More than 25 years on, MPs elected in the 1990 election that was set aside by the military regime are taking another crack at changing the constitution. The Members of Parliament Union 1990 want to make radical changes to the military-drafted 2008 charter. Both President U Htin Kyaw and State Counsellor Daw Aung San Suu Kyi highlighted constitutional reform in speeches soon after taking office, insisting it remains the party’s top reform priority.
