- Malaysia and other ASEAN members will send a peace delegation to Myanmar to help resolve the ongoing Rohingya crisis.
- Over 1.3 million Rohingya refugees currently reside in crowded camps in Bangladesh after fleeing violence in 2017.
- The mission, coordinated by Malaysia, is scheduled for the coming weeks to promote peace and address ethnic conflicts.
- This initiative coincides with Myanmar’s December general elections and may influence ASEAN’s recognition of the military regime.
This peace mission by the ASEAN is a breakthrough initiative for finding a resolution to the Rohingya crisis. Until now, Myanmar authorities have not welcomed any third-party engagement or visit on Rohingya issues.— Retired Maj. Gen. Shahidul Haque, former diplomat and defense attache of the Bangladesh Embassy in Myanmar, commented on the significance of the ASEAN peace mission.
