United GCBA

The United GCBA, also known as the Ngawbinwsaing (Burmese for "Five Flowers Alliance"), was a political party in Burma led by U Ba Pe.

History edit

The party was formed in 1936 as a successor to the People's Party,[1] and gained its name "Five Flowers Alliance" from the fact that it consisted of five parties; the People's Party, the Free Burma Party led by U Maung Gyi, the Wun Thar Nu GCBA of Ye U Sayadaw, the Boycott GCBA led by U Ba Si and the Upper Burma 21 group;[2] the party was largely based on factions of the General Council of Burmese Associations (GCBA).[3] In the general elections later in the year, the party won 46 of the 132 seats, but U Ba Pe was unable to form a government. The party was renamed the Nationalist Party the following year, but disintegrated shortly afterwards due to factional infighting.[3] One of the party's MPs, U Saw, subsequently founded the Patriot's Party.[4]
