The Office of the ASEAN Special Representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Indonesia has released a press release that it was able to officially meet with all stakeholders in Myanmar. The relevant parties are the military council, It is said that NUG and some other ethnic armed groups are involved. The ASEAN Office’s statement made it look like all these groups could meet at a round table, but in reality, they only met with each stakeholder individually. This was announced in a manner that everyone could participate in. The NUG immediately denied that they did not meet with the military council. As the domestic war escalates, ASEAN is once again doing things that don’t work. As ASEAN has not been able to do anything about the Myanmar issue so far, it is doing this kind of indecisiveness. While the military council is being dissolved, an inclusive discussion is no longer possible. As for ASEAN, it is still an illusion. Trying to intervene as a third party at this time is a breath of fresh air for the military council. As ASEAN does not want to help the revolution, It will be necessary not to disturb.
