TERMS of REFERENCE Assignment Title Parliamentary Committee Specialist Type of Contract Framework Agreement Start/End Dates 5 Ma
TERMS OF REFERENCE Assignment Title Parliamentary Committee Specialist Type of Contract Framework Agreement Start/End Dates 5 May 2019 – 15 December 2020 Assignment Bracket Intermediate-level expert / Specialist Number of working days Up to 18 months / 360 days Supervisor Sub-national Parliament Specialist Duty Station Yangon, with travel to Nay Pyi Taw, Rakhine, Mon, Shan, Mandalay, and other Regions and States 1. Background The Constitution of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar (the Constitution) came into force in 2008. Chapter 4 of the Constitution establishes parliaments (Hluttaws) at two levels. The national level- Union (Pyidaungsu) Hluttaw comprises two Hluttaws, Pyithu Hluttaw (House of Representatives) and Amyotha Hluttaw (House of Nationalities), that are generally equal in status. The term of the Union Hluttaw is 5 years from the day of the first session of the Pyithu Hluttaw. The Constitution has also established sub- national Hluttaws comprising one Hluttaw for each of the fourteen Regions and States. The Union and Region/State Hluttaws are independent institutions with different political compositions and mandate, but their administrative support is provided by national-level civil service staff, under the guidance of the Permanent Secretary of the Pyidaungsu Hluttaw. Myanmar’s Hluttaws are very young institutions, currently in their second 5-year term, which has started in February 2016. Under UNDP’s Support to Effective Responsive Institutions (SERIP) and Strengthening Accountability and Rule of Law (SARL) projects, UNDP provides support to developing Myanmar’s Hluttaws committee systems and practices to ensure parliaments are able to use their committees in effective policy review, legislative review, budget review and oversight processes.

Emergence and Features of the Constitutional Review Bodies in Asia: a Comparative Analysis of Transitional Countries’ Development
Discussion Paper No.19 Emergence and Features of the Constitutional Review Bodies in Asia: A Comparative Analysis of Transitional Countries’ Development Edited by Aziz Ismatov and Emi Makino August, 2020 Nagoya University Center for Asian Legal Exchange Center for Asian Legal Exchange (CALE) Nagoya University, Japan Emergence and Features of the Constitutional Review Bodies in Asia: A Comparative Analysis of Transitional Countries’ Development Edited by Aziz Ismatov and Emi Makino FOREWORD This research discussion paper provides a study on theory and practices of constitutional review developments in five selected Asian jurisdictions, Myanmar, Singapore, Korea, including Russia and Uzbekistan, which in some scholarly works are also addressed as Eurasia. The objective is to create systematic narratives to document theoretical grounds and practical aspects of constitutional review, collect and present to a broader audience comparative, historical, analytical, and critical perspectives covering constitutional judiciary in Asia. We hope that this collection will be of high interest for scholars, practitioners, and students of comparative constitutional law, human rights, democracy, the rule of law, constitutional adjudication, and Asia’s legal systems. The general philosophy of constitutional review presupposes that constitutional courts are established to limit or balance executive and legislative branches’ activities. In such circumstances, scholars and practitioners expect that constitutional courts would work as neutral arbitrators among the two branches. Simultaneously, the vital role of the constitutional court which is a protection of fundamental rights is sometimes neglected within the broader context of political involvement. Contributors to this discussion paper were all invited to attend the workshop on Emergence and Features of the Constitutional Review Bodies in Asia held at the Department of Law, University of Yangon, on October 22, 2019, and present their draft papers for this workshop.

Myanmar Embassy in Tokyo Two ethnic armed groups sign ceasefire agreement in Nay Pyi Taw Nay Pyi Taw, Feb 13 The New Mon State Party (NMSP) and the Lahu Democratic Union (LDU) signed the Nationwide Ceasefire Agreement at the Myanmar International Convention Center -II in Nay Pyi Taw yesterday, an event that State Counsellor Daw Aung San Suu Kyi described as “only the beginning” of a long quest for peace. “The NCA is not the end of the peace process. The NCA is the beginning of the peace process”, the State Counsellor said. “The beginning of political dialogues, the beginning of reduction of armed conflicts; it is the beginning of the political process that will result from the resolution of political problems through negotiations, discussions and the joint search for solutions”.

Countdown to the Myanmar Elections Prepared for the Conflict Prevention and Peace Forum by Richard Horsey 1 25 August 2010
Countdown to the Myanmar Elections Prepared for the Conflict Prevention and Peace Forum by Richard Horsey 1 25 August 2010 I. The election timetable On 13 August, the Myanmar Election Commission finally announced the timetable for the country’s first elections in two decades; two days earlier, it had designated the constituencies. 2 The key dates are as follows: 11 August Constituencies designated by Election Commission 16 – 30 August Registration period for candidates (party and independent) 3 September Deadline for candidates to withdraw 6 – 10 September Applications scrutinized by Election Commission 7 November Election Day The announcement gave parties little more than two weeks’ notice of the candidate registration deadline – although most parties had already been considering for some time the question of which constituencies they would contest, and identifying possible candidates. The limited time remaining, and the considerable costs associated with contesting a seat (a non-refundable US$500 fee per candidate), mean that a number of parties have to scale-back their ambitions. With 498 seats up for grabs at the national level, and a further 665 in regional legislatures, only highly-organized and well-funded parties can hope to contest a majority of seats. Although parties have already started their canvassing activities, the campaign period proper – when confirmed candidates can formally seek support from the electorate in their constituency – will last only two months. By way of comparison, the timetable for the 1990 elections was announced more than six months in advance, on 7 November 1989. 3 Then too, however, little 1 Richard Horsey is an independent political analyst and a former ILO liaison officer in Myanmar; he is fluent in the Burmese language.
