William Hague urges further reforms during visit to Burma

William Hague urges further reforms during visit to Burma
Foreign secretary William Hague has told Burma’s leaders that Britain expects it to make further progress on human rights and democracy.

Mr Hague met president Thein Sein and opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi as he became the first British foreign secretary since 1955 to visit the south-east Asian nation.

He used the talks in the capital Naypyidaw to emphasise the importance Britain placed on the unexpected reforms the president had made in the past six months.

These include the release of Ms Suu Kyi and 200 other political prisoners along with legalising trade unions.

Mr Hague added: ‘I made clear that the British government expects to see the release of all political prisoners, credible by-elections in April, and a genuine alleviation of the suffering in ethnic areas, including through humanitarian access and peace talks.

‘I spoke of the long-standing friendship that exists between our two peoples, one that can and should form the foundation of improved relations across the board between our two countries.

‘I made clear that the British government stands ready to respond positively to evidence of further progress towards that lasting improvement in human rights and political freedom that the people of Burma seek.’

Mr Hague’s visit comes a month after one by US secretary of state Hillary Clinton, signalling a thaw in relations with the Burma’s hardline leadership.

Ms Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy has re-registered as a political party and will contest parliamentary by-elections on April 1.

But critics of the regime estimate up to 1,700 political prisoners remain behind bars and abuses against ethnic minorities continue.

Burma Insight: 05 Jan 2012

Yangon, January 6 — William Hague, the British Foreign Secretary held
nearly one and a half hour long meeting with pro-democracy leader Aung
San Suu Kyi in Yangon this morning.

The meeting took place inside Aung San Suu Kyi’s compound in Yangon.

“Of course much more need to be done and that is vital in our view
that remaining political prisoners should be released. And it is not
possible to say a country is free and democratic while people are
still in prisons on the ground of their political beliefs,” William
Hague told reporters.

“We also looked to the government to improve humanitarian access to
areas of ethnic conflict and to ensure that the by-elections that will
take place on the 1st of April are freely and fairly and visibly free
and fair in the eyes of the world,” British Foreign Secretary said.

“The long held dream now has the chance of being realized but so much
more work to be done. The long darkness through which the people of
this country have lived may be coming to an end,” said William Hague.

“Make a dream a reality. I don’t believe dreaming for the sake of
dreaming. We have to have a goal and we have to know how we intend to
realize our dream. If we work hard, we are sure fulfilling the dream
of the people of Burma,” Aung San Suu Kyi declared at the end of the
meeting with William Hague.

When asked by a reporter about the way of the release of prisoners,
Aung San Suu Kyi said: “All political prisoners should be released and
there should be all efforts made put an end to the ethnic conflict
within the country and certainly we would like to see free and fair
by-elections. I must add I would like to see the NLD winning very well
in those elections.”

Yangon, January 6 — A total of 6656 prisoners – 569 women and 6087
men – enjoyed amnesty as fro January 3, 2012, after the order from the
President, according to the state-owned newspapers.

“The order was issued as a gesture of hailing the 64th Anniversary of
Independence Day and for the sake of State peace and stability, the
rule of law, national solidarity and on the grounds of humanitarian
and the President has granted an amnesty for the prisoners,” the news
item said.

“Besides, the death sentences of 33 prisoners – 31 men and 2 women
were commuted to life imprisonment, over 30 years sentences of 1118
prisoners – 988 men and 130 women were reduced to 30 years sentences,
from 20 year sentences to 30 years sentences of 2702 prisoners – 2300
men and 402 women were commuted to 20 years sentences and under 20
years sentences of 35111 prisoners – 29855 men and 5256 women were
reduced by a quarter of their prison terms,” the news item mentioned.
