PUTRAJAYA (Asian News Network/Reuters): An unofficial meeting involving all foreign ministers of Asean member countries will convene on Wednesday (May 11) to ensure the Five-Point Consensus (5PC) aimed at addressing the instability in Myanmar can be implemented properly, says Malaysia's Foreign Minister.

Myanmar has plunged into an upheaval since a military coup last year ousted the government of Ms Aung San Suu Kyi, who is now in military custody and faces a raft of charges that could jail her for more than 150 years.
