223rd Anniversary of Downfall of Arakan Sovereignty Today is the 223rd anniversary of downfall of Arakan sovereignty or Arakan Kingdom. The Arakan kingdom was invaded and occupied by the alien Burman on December 31, in the year 1784. After the annexation of Arakan kingdom, the bloodthirsty Burman king Bodaw Maung Wyine and its barbaric forces cold-bloodily exterminated hundreds and thousands of non-combatant innocent Arakan people indiscriminately disregarding the Teaching of peace and Metta. The invaders from the other side of Arakan Yoma who pretended to be the defenders of our nation and People did not show slightest mercy even to the Co-religionist Rakhines and other Buddhist People. Moreover, creating a new slogan "Kill the Arakanese first at sight instead of a Cobra (poisonous Snake) if you find both together". Countless Men, women and children were slaughtered alive, raped our mothers and sisters including teenagers and Minors, robbed the valuable assets and Jwelleries, destroyed the Arakan palace, royal Libraries, Pagodas, Monasteries, Temples, Mosques and other Islamic Institutions and all symbols of the honor and dignity of the Arakan people, they have taken away the most revered and symbol of Buddhism the shrine of Maha Muni Para (Statue) from Arakan showing dis-respect to the Buddhist of the home-land. Thousands of peace loving Arakan people were made slaves and carried away to Mandalay to serve the Masters. The extermination of the Arakan people by the Burman king and invading forces was tantamount to the destruction of Jews by the Nazis during the Second World War. To escape the genocidal operations of the Burman king, hundreds of thousands of the then Populace fled into neighboring Bangladesh for asylum who are today found in the name of Moughs (Rakhines) and Rohai (Rohingya) by Bangali name.

Since the fall of Mrauk-Oo dynasty, the last Arakan Kingdom; the people of Arakan have been left without an independent and sovereign country through the present time. Naturally, restoration of our lost Arakan nation is our highest and ultimate political goal. While we do not forget our lost of Arakan nation and the atrocities committed by the inhuman King Bodaw Maung Wyine, we do support the establishment of a genuine Democratic Federal Union of Burma, where the ethnic Burman and non-Burman peoples including Rakhine, Rohingyas ands tribal hilly people of Arakan will all equally enjoy freedom and self-determination. On this tragic day, we strongly urge the ruling Burmese military regime, State Peace and Development Council (SPDC) to: 1. Stop immediately the ethnocentric Burman rule and all forms of discrimination against the ethnic non-Burma peoples particularly the Karen, Karenni, Chin, Shan, Rohingyas, kuki, palaung etc. 2. Stop immediately its entire human rights violations in the country, including its large-scale confiscation of land from the Rohingyas of Arakan to resettle the new model Villages with non-Arakan people from Burma proper. 3. Withdraw immediately all its troops from the ethnic non-Burman territories, including Arakan State; 4. Release all political prisoners, the Burmese democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi, U Tin Oo, U Khun Tun Oo, U Win Tin including U Kyaw Min (aka) Master Shamsul Anwarul Hoque, the leader of NDPHR and CRPP member. 5. Rescind all the undemocratic and unjust laws, decrees and orders particularly 1982-84 Citizenship law that made Rohingyas stateless. 6. Negotiate with all the democratic and ethnic Opposition parties including the leaders of the Rohingyas of Arakan in a genuine Tripartite Dialogue as demanded by the peoples of Burma as recommended by the United Nations, United States, EU and Asain countries. On this Black day -31st December of Arakan historical and unforgettable day, we, the members of the Six Party alliance humbly request and urge the entire people of Arakan disregarding race, religion, color and language to come forward to realize the root

causes of the down-fall of Arakan, degeneration and degradation of Arakan People as well as the failure of our part to restore our lost dignity and honor. If we scrutinize seriously and ponder in cool-mind, we can easily understand that due to lack of national Unity and solidarity, mis-understanding and suspicion of each other on racial line, wrong fear of the threats of friends instead of foes, mis-calculation on siding religious extremism, lack of world-political Diplomacy and above all internal hostility in the homeland. So, we earnestly request all Arakan people in homeland and overseas to forget the past hostility and forgiving each other and let there be a new spirit, aspiration and determination of New Year - 2008 Resolution to rebuild Arakan National Unity and Solidarity to create a congenial atmosphere of peace and stability with united forces of Rakhines, Rohingyas and hilly tribal people. By making disunity and creating chaos in the past we lost our freedom, Independence and Sovereignty, so, by forging unity and solidarity we can reverse to the freedom. The only Solution is it's opposite, that means restoration and rebuilding of our unity like cemented wall to face the enemy who wants to keep us SLAVES forever as a Colonized nation in the world. Saddened with the memory of the Loss of Arakan Sovereignty, independence, dignity and all kinds of honor, Let us rename it as the BLACK DAY - DECEMBER -31st, Day of downfall of Arakan kingdom, First day of Slavery! The day un-forgettable and scar in the hearts! (President) Dr. Than Aung alias Mohammed Ali
