Anwar’s visit to Thailand renews move to solving issues affecting restive southern province, Myanmar


BANGKOK: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s maiden two-day official visit to Thailand starting Thursday (Feb 9) helped renew the resolve in finding solutions to the restive south Thailand and in troubled Myanmar.

The decades-long conflict in southern Thailand, which borders Malaysia, and the crisis in Myanmar since the Feb 1, 2021 coup that hindered peace in the region were the key subject matter of discussions during Anwar’s visit to the northern neighbour.
