In late 2025, the Sagaing Federal Unit drafted an interim constitution, laying the foundation to establish a government to restore public services and govern resistance-held areas in Sagaing Region. It was approved by the Sagaing Federal Unit's legislature in June 2025 after months of deliberation.[2] Negotiations began in late 2025, to form the SFUIG through "bottom-up democracy" using a selection commission representing seven identified revolutionary subgroups- ousted former parliamentarians, political party members, ethnic minorities, civil servants, protestors, existing local people's administrators and a seventh group of "other participants".[3] NUG Acting President Duwa Lashi La sent a congratulatory message on Dec. 24 to the SFUH for building “a people-centered administrative system” in Sagaing Region.[4]
Formally established in December 2025 and early 2026, the SFUIG was formed to manage the liberated areas within Sagaing Region under an interim constitution during the country's revolutionary transition. It features a legislative body and a Cabinet focused on regional security, defense, and the restoration of public services.[5][6]The Chief Minister of the SFUIG is Soe Oo.[7]

The SFUIG was officially established on December 23, 2025, following approval by the Sagaing Federal Unit Hluttaw (SFUH). It holds the distinction of being the first federal unit government formed during the Spring Revolution. The cabinet is composed of the Chief Minister, eleven ministers, and an Attorney General.[7]
