Description:
Agenda Item 9: Question of the violation of human rights and fundamental freedoms in any part of the world.
"... I am Dr. Sein Win, an elected representative of the 1990 general elections from Paukkaung Constituency of Burma. I usually
take this floor at each session of the UN Commission on Human Rights since 1991 to present the case of 1990 general
elections in Burma with the hope that the commission could help accelerate the process of democratization which is vital for the
improvement of overall human rights situation in my country. I fully agree with the concluding remark of former UN Human
Rights Special Rapporteur, Judge Rajsoomer Lallah, who said, "The lack of respect to the rights pertaining to democratic
governance is the root cause of various forms of human rights violations in Burma"..."
