The meeting in Jakarta on Tuesday (July 11) comes as doubts grow over Asean's effectiveness, with some disagreement over how to approach a bloody conflict in Myanmar and the junta's failure to implement an agreed Asean peace plan.
Association of Southeast Asian Nations chair Indonesia on Tuesday stressed the importance of the regional bloc's unity in remaining credible, as its foreign ministers started talks expected to touch on the thorny issue of engaging Myanmar's ostracised ruling generals.
"So we have no choice but to show that Asean can navigate the regional and global dynamics and continue to instil the paradigm of collaboration," she said.Myanmar has been gripped by fighting since the military seized power in early 2021 before unleashing a fierce crackdown on pro-democracy opponents, which saw the formation of an armed resistance movement and an intensification of conflict.
Foreign ministers of key Asean members stayed away, however, with only those of Thailand, Myanmar and Laos attending and some countries sending junior representation.
