The
Emergency Coordination Centre (ECC) has planned to hold a Union level
meeting on May 2 at the offices of the Rakhine regional government in
Sittwe.
Officials
of the ECC, delegations from the United Nations, and members of INGOs
will attend the meeting in Rakhine State, according to the Ministry of
Border Affairs.
The
purpose is to discuss on coordination with international organisations
in Myanmar and to help end the conflict in the region.
The
ECC was firstly meant to control clashes in Rakhine State, but now
includes government personnel, Rakhine elders and members of the INGO
community to help maintain transparency.
In
addition, it is reported that the Arakan Army (AA) and the Arakan
Liberation Party (ALP) have arranged to join forces. During Kyaukpyu
Conference, designations from those parties said the AA is ready to
protect the back door of Myanmar.
At present, security
matters of Rakhine State should be prioritised as the destiny of Rakhine
State affects not only on the Rakhine nationals but also the whole
country.
