Members of Taikkyi Township National League for Democracy Ko Maung Win on 31 August, U Aung Hsan Win, Daw Hnin Zi and Daw Shwe Tin on 1 September, members of Kyimyindine Township NLD Daw Thein Mya and Ma San Aye on 5 September, 36 members of Kawhmu Township NLD including U Min Naing, U Ko Naing, U Sein Min, U Than Hla, U Tin Win, U Kyaw Oo, U Bo Aye, U Maung Ei, U Kyi Htwe and Daw Thein Myint on 6 September resigned from the NLD of their own accord, sending letters of resignation to the NLD Headquarters and local authorities concerned.

In their letters sent to Taikkyi, Kyimyindine and Kawhmu Township Multiparty Democracy General Election Subcommissions, they said that when they joined the party as members, they believed NLD would have ability to bring about genuine democracy; they were fed up with NLD as it stuck only to the individual interest, expecting foreign aids; they believed that the National Convention will be able to ensure the flourishing of genuine democracy, and that they took no interest in the NLD’s activities. That was why they resigned from the NLD of their own volition, they said.
