Most ASEAN foreign ministers will convene in Cambodia’s resort city Siem Reap starting from Wednesday for closed-door talks on Thursday, amid mounting pressure from the international community to deal with the Myanmar crisis, and at a time of flux in the wider Indo-Pacific region.
.
The retreat is Cambodia’s first high-level meeting as this year’s ASEAN chair, initially scheduled last month but postponed due to opposition over an invitation extended to Myanmar’s military regime, which continues to cling onto power after usurping the previous government of Aung San Suu Kyi over a year ago.
