MNJP) is a political party of the Kokang ethnic group in the Kokang Self-Administered Zone and Shan State, Myanmar. Its affiliated armed forces are the Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army (MNDAA). The party was established on June 29, 2013, and its current general secretary is Peng Deren.
The party also participates in the Federal Political Negotiation and Consultative Committee (FPNCC) composed of local ethnic armed organisations and political parties of various ethnic groups in northern Myanmar.[1]）
History[edit]
After the mutiny of the Communist Party of Burma (CPB) in 1989, most of the former armed forces of the CPB and their jurisdictions continued to use the CPB system. Only the Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army (MNDAA) was committed to absolute family rule and further expanded the system inherited from the CPB. In the later period of the drug trade, the latter also experienced several splits (such as the Yang Maoliang mutiny in 1992, the "Black Menglong Incident" in 2000, and the "8·8" incident in 2009), especially the "8·8" incident in 2009 The incident caused the MNDAA to retreat into the Kokang Mountains.
in order to change the phenomenon of alliance family rule, drug trade, and no political program, the first national party member congress of the MNJP was held from June 28 to 29, 2013. The meeting elected members of the Central Committee and alternate members of the Central Committee, and Peng Deren was elected as Acting General Secretary; from June 28 to July 1, 2015, the Second Plenary Session of the First Central Committee was held, the Central Political Bureau of the Myanmar National Justice Party was established, and the Politburo was elected. There are 5 members, and several additional members of the Central Committee and alternate members of the Central Committee have been implemented to implement the political construction of the army and maintain and adhere to the "principle of the Party's absolute leadership over the army"; from February 15 to 16, 2016, the Third Plenary Session of the First Central Committee was held. Through the election, the Congress unanimously approved Acting General Secretary Peng Deren as General Secretary, and also added 4 alternate members of the Central Committee; from January 17 to 19, 2020, the Fourth Plenary Session of the First Central Committee was held, and the meeting proposed to modify the party flag and emblem, and New arrangements have been made for party affairs, government affairs, and military work under the new situation.[2]
Under the leadership of the MNJP, a military conflict broke out between the MNDAA and the Myanmar government forces in Kokang in 2015.
On October 27, 2023, it launched Operation 1027 with the Arakan Army (AA) and the Ta'ang National Liberation Army (TNLA) in an attempt to regain control of Kokang. At that point the three had formed the Three Brotherhood Alliance.[3]
Logo[edit]
The background of the first version of the flag of the Myanmar National Justice Party comes from the Myanmar national flag, and the three colors have the same meaning as it, that is, yellow symbolizes unity, green symbolizes peace, tranquility and represents a lush and green country, and red symbolizes bravery and determination. In the center of the party flag is the emblem of the MNJP.
The emblem of the MNJP is a white pattern with two rice ears surrounding a gear. The ears of rice symbolize farmers, the gears symbolize workers, and the middle is the shape of the territory of Myanmar, which represents that the party is composed of the broad working class and peasants of Myanmar and people of all ethnic groups, and is united to pursue a new country of national equality, harmony, democracy, and prosperity.
From January 17th to 19th, 2020, the Fourth Plenary Session of the First Central Committee was held. The meeting revised the party flag and replaced the three colors of the Myanmar flag in the background with pure red to symbolize revolution.[4]
