YANGON, Aug 9 (Bernama) -- Some 23 parliament representatives in Myanmar have voiced support for the government's peace efforts, calling on the people who want peace to work with goodwill in the interest of the nation and stay away from acts that may break up the nation.
In their open letter for peace proposal published in all official media Tuesday, the 23 representatives of the House of Representatives and ethnic minorities expressed acknowledgment of the endeavors of President U Thein Sein's government, Xinhua news agency reported.
The letter also expressed shock over a recent gunfire incident in Kachin state in which the Kachin Independence Army (KIA) killed seven people, condemning the act as a menace to the peace process.
However, the letter said the government on its part continues to work in the interest of the people and peace with great benevolence.
