During the CICP organized virtual seminar on “Responding to the Myanmar Crisis: the Role of the UN and ASEAN” on 30 September 2021, important takeaways were observed:
– The Tatmadaw is a problem to the Myanmar crisis but the Junta is also hold key to possible solution.
– It is not a zero sum game, but for the 5-point consensus to move forward effectively, ASEAN and the UN must work together to inject new approach to their strategies while engaging the Junta.
– Cambodia has a good story to tell Myanmar on how the country ended atrocities committed by the Khmer Rouge. Cambodia can serve as bridge for political dialogue among all stakeholders.
– We must believe in ASEAN and the UN system, because these are all we have, but more efforts and creative ideas are needed to restore normalcy back to Myanmar.
