PHNOM PENH, Oct 23 (Reuters): South-East Asian foreign ministers will hold a special meeting in Indonesia on Thursday (Oct 27) to discuss the Myanmar peace process, Cambodia's foreign ministry said on Sunday.

The talks at the Association of South-East Asian Nations (Asean) Secretariat in Jakarta will cover the implementation of a five-point peace "consensus" agreed with Myanmar's military rulers last year to try to end conflict in the country, ministry spokesman Chum Sounry told Reuters.
