The Ta'ang National Party (Burmese: တအာင်းအမျိုးသားပါတီ; abbreviated TNP), also known as the Ta'arng (Palaung) National Party, is a de-registered political party in Myanmar (Burma).[2] The party was founded on 24 May 2010 to contest the 2010 general election, but did not participate in the 2012 by-election. The party seeks to represent the Ta'ang people (also known as the Palaung people) in the parliament of Myanmar.[3] On 28 March, TNP was officially dissolved by the junta-appointed Union Election Commission, along with 39 other parties.[4]
