ON July 26, I had a fruitful discussion with the UN Secretary-General's Special Envoy on Myanmar, Dr Noeleen Heyzer. We discussed various issues: the Asean 5-Point Consensus (5PC), a framework for Myanmar with an end game, humanitarian aid and education for refugees.
Until today, there has been no real progress on the 5PC. The violence continues and in fact has gotten worse. There is no inclusive or fair consultation between all key stakeholders in the Asean-junta dialogue. The junta monopolises and politicises humanitarian aid.
