ASEAN finally tired of civil war and violence in Myanmar
Five years of feckless diplomacy produced nothing
new approach now being tried. Engagement
July 12 Philippine Foreign Minister hosted ASEAN foreign ministers in Bangkok
hosted by her Thai counterpart Sihasak Phuangketkow
meeting included briefing from Myanmar’s foreign minister on recent developments
Myanmar claimed Aung San Suu Kyi in good health
statement released by Thai ministry signaled significant shift in ASEAN direction
recognized need for direct engagement, dialogue between ASEAN and Myanmar
to build confidence, meaningful progress, create conditions for re-engagement
ASEAN united help Myanmar achieve peace, stability through dialogue, consensus
informal gathering clearly brainchild of Thailand
Sihasak and Tin Maung Swe met bilaterally on Saturday
highest level recognition of Myanmar regime since April 2021 following military coup
meeting comes ahead of annual ASEAN Foreign Ministers Meet in Manila 21-23 July
My Comments: Myanmar lagi. Habis Foreign Minister / Foreign Ministry kita buat apa? Recognise ke tak mahu recognise? Rohingya pun tak tahu settle.
