Two weeks after the signing of the agreement with Britain, Aung San signed an agreement at the second Panglong Conference on 12 February 1947, with leaders representing the Shan, Kachin, and Chin People. In this agreement these leaders agreed to join a united independent Burma, under the condition that they would have "full autonomy" and the right to secede in 1958, after ten years. Recalcitrant minority leaders were won over by Aung San's insistence that their regions would be given generous funding from the central government for "roads and schools", that the government he intended to create would not discriminate on the basis of sex, religion, or ethnicity, and that he intended the Burmese military to be led by officers from many different ethnic groups, not just Bamar men.
