MYANMAR (Eleven Media Group/Asia News Network): A united ideology can elevate Asean to better manage the superpower rivalry, regional crises, and meet the aspirations of its citizens, said two Thai regional experts.

Both Kasit Piromya, former Foreign Minister, and Supalak Ganjanakhundee, independent researcher, advocate “liberal democracy” as a new shared belief for Asean and which, they say, is the only option to bring peace and stability back to crisis-hit Myanmar.
