BANGKOK, Feb 12 (Bernama): Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has urged Asean to explore new strategies and approaches in resolving the ongoing crisis in Myanmar.

Anwar stated in an exclusive interview with Thai Public Broadcasting Service (Thai PBS) that the Myanmar crisis can no longer be considered the internal affairs of the country because it has affected its neighbours, including Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia as a result of the influx of refugees fleeing the country.
