Myanmar shadow govt raises alarm after junta meets Asean members


YANGON, Dec 23 (Reuters): Myanmar's shadow government on Friday urged Asean not to waver from its policy of excluding the country's military leaders from its gatherings after Thailand hosted junta ministers in informal talks with other South-East Asian officials.

Government ministers of Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam met with junta representatives in Bangkok on Thursday to "find pathways towards a return to normalcy", a Cambodian official said, as violence and political and economic chaos persist in Myanmar after last year's coup.
