The battle for control of the Union Solidarity and Development Party is rumbling on. Sacked members loyal to Thura U Shwe Mann have accused former president U Thein Sein’s faction of secretly planning a party congress to formalise their ouster.
They also insist that current central executive committee (CEC) is “illegal”, as its formation following an internal coup last August broke party rules.
“We want USDP to be a prestigious party which obeys its own rules,” U Win Than said at a press conference on May 4.
“The party’s rules state that the highest decision-maker is the party congress. So if they want to dismiss us, they should do it based on the decision of an emergency party congress, attended by all the members,” he said. (Courtesy of Frontier Myanmar)
