Dr Surin’s comments followed a statement issued recently by the Foreign Minister of Viet Nam, as the ASEAN Chair. Welcoming the decision by Myanmar on the date of the elections, the statement said that the region “encourages Myanmar to further accelerate progress in the implementation of the Roadmap for National Reconciliation and Democracy, including in preparations for the [scheduled] elections leading to a constitutional Government in [the country].”
ASEAN, the statement went on to say, underscores the importance of national reconciliation in Myanmar and the holding of the general elections in a free, fair and inclusive manner, thus contributing to Myanmar’s stability and development.
The statement also stressed the need for Myanmar to continue to work with ASEAN and the United Nations in this process. “For its part, ASEAN expresses its readiness to render assistance as deemed appropriate by Myanmar and in accordance with the ASEAN Charter. ASEAN will keep close consultations with Myanmar in this regard.”
